  • waste sorting more and more frequently occurs at the household.
  • compulsory waste sorting systems have been introduced. This means that, sometimes, organic waste is collected only periodically and, therefore, said waste must be kept in the house for different days.
  • organic waste tends to ferment and generate moulds, bacteria and bad smells.
  • Known containers generally comprise a lid, which is configured to close, at the top, a receptacle having an inner compartment, which is suited to house the waste.
  • Known organic waste containers tends to develop, after some time, a bad smell due to the fermentation, ripening, deterioration of the waste held on the inside.
  • known receptacles usually house dispensers that are suited to spray treatment liquids, for example to stop the fermentation and/or sanitize and/or deodorize.
  • Known dispensers are arranged on the inside of the receptacle and are configured to be automatically activated upon opening of the lid, thus producing a jet of liquid without a person's direct intervention.
  • Known dispensers are applied to a side wall of the receptacle on the inside of the compartment. Preferably, dispensers are applied in the area of an upper edge of the compartment, just underneath the lid.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a lid for a waste receptacle, which overcomes the drawbacks described above.

Therefore, the lid 3 described above allows the containing space of the receptacle 2 to be increased and, in particular, it does not engage areas close to the side wall of the receptacle 2.
  • the distribution system 18 allows the liquid to be atomized into the compartment 6 from above and from a substantially central position; therefore, the lid 3 described above allows the treatment liquid to uniformly and completely settle inside the compartment 6, regardless of the waste filling level of the receptacle 2.
  • the lid 3 described above can be used as a replacement for know lids already in use, with no need to also replace the receptacle. Therefore, the lid 3 described above can easily be adopted also for receptacles already in use and not provided with a distribution system 18 waste treatment material.
  • the user To check the filling level of the tank 19, the user lifts the lid 3 and places it with the axis A perpendicular to a resting surface and the horizontal neck 28 upwards. In this way, the liquid contained inside the tank 19 flows, due to gravity, towards the bottom of the bottle 19 and the filling level of the bottle 19 can be detected through the level indicator 35, i.e. the window 36, on the casing 24.
