Areas of application for HeatCrack
HeatCrack is versatile and optimizes efficiency in various areas of biogas production and organic material processing. The targeted thermal treatment facilitates the decomposition of materials that are difficult to break down, improves the gas yield and reduces residual materials.
Typical areas of application:
Biogas plants – Increased methane yield through better digestion of fiber-rich substrates such as liquid manure, dung and renewable raw materials (e.g. grass, straw, whole plant silage).
Slurry and digestate management – reducing the viscosity and improving the pumpability of slurry and digestate for easier further processing and spreading.
Farms – More efficient use of organic residues and better nutrient availability for soil management.
Industry and food processing – treatment of organic by-products for energy recovery in biogas plants or to reduce disposal costs.
Wastewater treatment – supporting biological processes by improving the degradability of organic substances in wastewater treatment plants.
With HeatCrack, operators of biogas plants, agricultural businesses and industrial users can increase energy efficiency, reduce operating costs and implement sustainable circular economy solutions.
