Manure decanter for nutrient separation
Managing livestock manure efficiently involves reducing its phosphate and nitrogen content to prevent environmental harm. This requires technology capable of dewatering solid particles and making them suitable for further processing as fertilizer.

Optimize nutrient separation with adjustable controls
The GEA manure Decanter is designed to turn livestock manure into a recyclable resource while achieving high nutrient separation efficiency. Utilizing g-forces, it separates nitrogen (40%) and phosphate (70%) without the need for chemicals. It operates within a closed material flow system, minimizing the risk of blockages and ensuring a hygienic fertilizer. The decanter is PLC controlled, making it independent and easy to operate. Models like the GEA manure Decanter prime and pro offer options for both flexible configuration for complex processes, and standardized configurations for easier integration. These systems can provide energy savings of 15 to 60 percent, validated by TÜV Rheinland to meet ISO 14021 standards.
