OPTIMISED & USER FRIENDLY SOLUTIONS
SEPOGANT
Press screw separator
The separation technology made in Allgäu!
Powerful, robust & specially developed for demanding fermentation residue!
The problem & the solution
Floating layers often form in slurry and digestate storage facilities, which can only be dissolved or avoided through costly stirring or prior separation. Furthermore, many farms have a problem with the correct distribution of nutrients and thus a functioning nutrient management.
Separation with the Sepogant press screw separator makes it possible to solve these problems. The separation into solid and liquid phases separates the nutrients, which can then be applied to the areas as required in a further step. Nitrogen (NH4) is immediately available, especially in the liquid phase, and the organically bound nitrogen and phosphorus are largely separated with the solid phase. The liquid phase, which is easy to handle or “unproblematic”, can be applied to the land using the near-ground spreading method, whereas the solid phase can either be spread with a plate manure spreader after each grassland cut or used as a straw substitute and bedding for dairy farmers. This also has the advantage that the farmer no longer needs a straw mattress for his cows and thus also saves money.
By separating the solid phase, the liquid storage volume of slurry and digestate is reduced. In addition, sinking and floating layers are reduced during storage and agitation technology and energy in the storage tanks are saved. Furthermore, there is a larger time window for spreading and no more clogging of the spreading equipment, as the often clogging fibers have already been separated in advance.
The process
The Sepogant press screw separator separates both liquid manure and more challenging feed materials such as fermentation residues. This is possible thanks to the robust press screw, which is fitted with carbide plates, and the carbide counter blade. Our specially developed mechanical seal (with permanent oil lubrication) ensures a long maintenance interval and a high level of safety. The constant linear contact pressure enables smooth adaptation to different substrates.
During separation with the Sepogant press screw separator, the medium – liquid manure, fermentation residue or other slurry – is separated into a solid and a liquid phase. Here, the press screw drives the substrate through the rigidly mounted, fixed slotted filter screen and presses it against the press cone or press flap. This causes the liquid part of the substrate to run off via the slotted filter screen. The solid part of the fermentation residue is conveyed forwards out of the sepogant against the pressing device.
The variants
The Sepogant separator is available in different configurations, so that a variant is available for every medium and every desired dry matter content in the solids. The equipment variants with cone correspond to most standard variants and are very energy-saving. A variant with a flap is recommended for highly viscous substrates, high dry matter contents and long drums.
The Sepogant separator can be attached to the container on a platform in various ways.
SHORT & SHORT
With the Sepogant press screw separator, it is possible to separate a wide variety of input materials with different dry matter contents and properties and to use the resulting end products in a targeted manner. The Sepogant separator is a breakthrough-proof separation technology that uses high-quality materials to achieve maximum reliability and product longevity. The advantages of separation lie in an increase or optimization of the own storage capacity, in now possible marketing possibilities of the fermentation residues, in a saving of the storage capacity and in an optimized nutrient management. This saves real money!
ADVANTAGES OF THE SCREW PRESS SEPARATOR
Sepogant
- ease of handling
- easy storage of solid feedstocks such as solid manure
- further processing possible by composting or drying
- easier spreading of the solid on the field using the solids manure spreader. You will achieve a fine structure on grassland after each cut.
- maximum service life due to the tungsten-carbide tipped press screw
- long maintenance intervals and high safety thanks to mechanical seal with permanent oil lubrication
- low maintenance cost
- pneumatic press unit with constantly applied pressing force (also with varying media)
- safety monitoring via pressure switch at press unit
SEPOGANT EXPANSION OPTIONS
Hopper tank
It is recommended to install the Sepogant together with an expansion tank. Together with the fully automatic control unit, the expansion tank ensures that only as much substrate is pumped as is required. This saves energy and ensures continuous and optimum utilization of the Sepogant.
