Arthur A. Benedicto, an awarded inventor of DOST (Department of Science and Technology) from Compostela Valley, has recently designed his all-in-one shredder. This mobile machine potentially boosts production of organic fertilizer and recycling of biodegradable and organic materials for individual livelihood purpose. The shredder can shred organic materials from kitchen refuse, banana stalks and fruit peeling, rice straws to inorganic ones like plastic and cellophanes. Plastics shreds can be uses as cushions for pillows or a mixture of hollow block, the peelings or rice straws for fertilizer for one’s livelihood. Benedicto’s invention will also contribute to various end-users including local government units of Parabo City, Asuncion in Davao del Norte, Trento, Agusan del Sur and the Davao Oriental Provincial government to contain the country’s pestering waste management problem.
