Worms Work™ Technologies Pty Ltd, an Adelaide based company, has the license to build, commission and the expertise to operate the Organic Bio Converter, for its organic recovery operations in Millicent. The Organic Bio Converter or OBC is a continuous flow system enabling feeding and harvesting to be done simultaneously and widely regarded as the world’s leading edge technology in this field.

Each OBC unit is modular in construction, highly mechanized and almost fully automated. Specifically prepared feed materials are layered to a controlled depth on top of the earthworm bed. The primary product, worm compost (vermicastings) are harvested from the bottom - both these procedures are performed without any disturbance to earthworm activity. The control and management of the system and Millicent site are overseen by Worms Work™ Technologies Pty Ltd.

Worms Work Technologies is able to guarantee the quality of the compost and liquid by maintaining very strict controls over both the type of organic waste materials introduced into the system, and the procedural workings of the system. This consistency in quality, and volume supplied ensures that Worms Work™  will always deliver  consistently high quality, value for money products

At its current output capacity the Worms Work™ production site can produce 2 million litres of Worms Work™ liquid and 5,000 cubic metres of Worms Work™ composite mix, however with minimal changes to the site as mentioned in the design engineers report (refer attached) the site can increase production to 6 million litres of liquid and 17,000 cubic metres of composite mix.
