Western Composting Technology Pty Ltd (WCT) operates a tunnel composting facility in Shepparton in northern Victoria. Tunnel composting is a proprietary alternative waste treatment technology. The company competed for and won the tender from Greater Shepparton City Council to process 8,000 tonnes per year of municipal source separated kerbside garden waste. Construction of the plant was completed in October 2008. WCT now has long-term contracts to receive waste from surrounding areas, such as councils including Moira, Benalla, Strathbogie and Wangaratta and local businesses. The facility is able to receive and process green wastes, municipal food organics and garden organics and solid commercial food wastes including waste produced from food processing, including solid milk residue and scallop shells, food retail, including out of date and damages food, and post-consumption - for example, leftover food waste generated from restaurants. WCT has the expertise to build, own and operate alternative waste treatment facilities in Australia. The company's waste treatment technologies include windrow, aerated static pile, in-vessel composting, and anaerobic digestion (wet and dry).
