PR25001 Noosa Composting Facility
Process Design Strategy




1.       Introduction

1.1.     Purpose of this Document
This Process Design Strategy (PDS) establishes the process basis of design for the Noosa
Composting Facility (Noosa CF), a turnkey in-vessel composting (IVC) facility to be designed
and delivered by OREZ Solutions for Noosa Shire Council (NSC) at the Noosa Resource
Recovery and Recycling Facility (NRRF), Doonan, Queensland.

The purpose of this document is to set the process parameters that the facility will be
designed to, and to provide a single reference that aligns the project team ahead of design
development. It is not the finished design. Its role is to fix the confirmed baseline, separate
confirmed items from open items, and enable the mass balance, process flow diagram
(PFD), spatial planning and infrastructure design to proceed on an agreed baseline.

On confirmation of this PDS, the PFD will be finalised and the balance of facility infrastructure,
spatial planning, water balance and operational logistics will be developed against the
parameters set out here.


1.2.     Project Background
NSC received approximately 17,000 tonnes of green waste across FY25, this was processed
on site by an external contractor into mulch. Under the From Waste to Resource: Waste Plan
2023 to 2028, and the community endorsed goal of 100% diversion of organic waste from
landfill by 2030, thus NSC is procuring a dedicated composting facility within the NRRF.
