Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1348816A1] A method of using a waste disposal apparatus which apparatus includes a macerating chamber (4) having a waste inlet (6) for the introduction of waste material, a waste outlet (12) for the removal of macerated waste material, a macerator (18), a water inlet (10) a water pump (26) coupled to the water inlet and a first and second drive (48,50) arranged to independently drive the water pump and the macerator, respectively; the method comprising, in sequence, a) switching on the first and the second drive to initiate maceration of the waste product in water: b) switching off the first drive for a predetermined period of time; c) switching on the first drive again for a further predetermined period of time; and d) switching off the first and second drive. The method provides a shorter maceration and chamber cleaning cycle than if the water pump and macerator are driven by a common motor. <IMAGE>
