Eggersmann BACKHUS CON 60: Automated lane turner for membrane composting
Optimised decomposition with enclosed emission-controlled processing
The Eggersmann BACKHUS CON 60 is an automated compost turner designed for membrane composting systems and emission-controlled composting. Built for high process stability and controlled environmental impact, it manages windrow material within defined lanes while maintaining optimal oxygen transfer and moisture balance. With a throughput of up to 3,800 m³/h, a lane width of 6m, and a material height of 3.2m, the CON 60 is engineered for uniform turning in lanes over extended cycles, helping operators shorten maturation times, reduce odour escape, and maintain consistent compost quality. Its automated travel system ensures predictable progress along each lane, minimising labour involvement and preserving membrane cover integrity during the composting process.
BACKHUS CON 60’s Key Features
Automated turning with a membrane system
Automated turning with a membrane system
The CON 60 integrates directly with protective membrane structures used in regulated composting environments. Automated movement delivers consistent turning depth, allowing the windrow turner to oxygenate compost without opening or removing coverings. This approach stabilises composting temperature curves, reduces pathogens, and improves biological efficiency for composting and biological drying applications.

Closed system for emission control
Closed system for emission control
The membrane system helps capture moisture and volatile organic compounds, lowering emissions into the surrounding environment. Reprocessing occurs without exposing compost to wind, rain, or unwanted contaminants, supporting compliance with emission standards and improving overall environmental performance for municipal solid waste, municipal waste, and other waste and organic streams.

High throughput
High throughput
The CON 60 is configured for high throughput rates, making it suitable for operators processing large volumes of organics. The machine’s working width and turning geometry deliver effective lane agitation and accelerated composting cycles. Steady throughput reduces production bottlenecks and supports continuous plant efficiency in solid waste, green waste, and biological drying operations.
REQUEST A QUOTEMaterials it can process
The BACKHUS CON 60 is suitable for:
- Organic or green waste and biomass
- Agricultural manure compost
- Food waste and municipal solid waste
- Landscape waste and compost feedstock
Its lane-based format makes it appropriate for facilities using enclosed or emission-regulated composting systems.
