Abstract: A plant for the processing of waste includes an outer housing and a grinding cell, in which a grinding chamber is defined having at least one inlet opening for introducing the waste to be processed, and at least one outlet opening for discharging the material resulting from waste processing. The openings are associated with a corresponding closure element, adapted to isolate the grinding chamber from the outer environment. The outer housing defines therein a space receiving the grinding cell and integrally surrounds the grinding cell, and in which the space is accessible through at least one door.

Abstract: A waste grinding apparatus (101) including a rotor having a central body (13) defining at least one radial vane (15a, 15b), provided, at its end (17a,17b) distal relative to a rotation axis (“S”) of the rotor (11), with a hammerhead (19) in which a first, knocker impact surface (21) adapted to operate when the rotor (11) rotates in a first, clockwise or counter-clockwise direction, and a second, wedge-shaped impact surface (23) adapted to operate when the rotor (11) rotates in a second direction opposite to the first direction, are defined.
