Tapioca horizontal screw press separator for biogas plants
Achieve high-efficiency separation and compaction of diverse organic wastes with this robust screw press, ensuring optimal processing for products like compost and liquid fertilizers while enhancing biogas feedstock preparation.
Separates and Compacts Biogas Digestate and Slurry
The SEPCOM Tapioca Horizontal Screw Press Separator from WAMGROUP is engineered for the efficient separation and compaction of biogas digestate and slurry. Utilizing a stainless-steel screw conveyor and a uniquely designed cylindrical screen basket, this equipment effectively separates the solids from the liquid phase under continuous operation. Ideal for handling materials such as biogas digestate, livestock manure, and agricultural by-products, it produces end-products like compost, organic fertilizers, and reclaimed water.
The separator operates with a maximum hydraulic throughput of 65 m³/h and achieves a high dry solids content of up to 32% in the separated solid fraction. Its self-cleaning mechanism ensures minimal maintenance, while the anti-wear SINT polymer construction offers durability and cost savings on spare parts. Compatible with a range of operational environments, it supports seamless integration with existing processes through continuous, automated operations.
Energy efficiency is a standout feature, with significant overall management cost reductions, particularly in waste treatment and biogas applications. Optional configurations include various diaphragm outlets and screen basket sizes, ensuring customization to suit specific process requirements.
