Effective liquid manure spreading in dry conditions with XSplit Separator

The challenges of liquid manure spreading in dry weather:
Slurry spreading poses particular challenges for farmers, especially during periods of dry weather. Drought causes the liquid components of the slurry to penetrate the soil quickly, while the solid fibrous matter remains on the surface. These fibers can affect the quality of the forage as they can be mixed with the grass during the next cut. This is a serious problem that can affect animal health.

Ready for the next slurry season: Pump technology maintenance

Maintenance steps and tips using the VX rotary lobe pump as an example

Whether for application on tankers, self-propelled vehicles or at the slurry pit on the farm, the pumping technology in agricultural applications must reliably pump the liquid manure and be insensitive to foreign matter such as fibrous matter, stones, ear tags or claw blocks. To ensure that it works reliably during the slurry season, it should be serviced regularly.

Wet wipes? No Trouble!

The problem with the hated sewage blockers practically solved with the help of experience

The town of Wildeshausen, located in the nature reserve of the same name, is surrounded by fields and woods and has recently experienced a strong influx of new inhabitants drawn to its natural setting. To these people, this popular holiday destination is home.
Up until a few years ago, however, problems in the sewer system pumping stations of this county town for the district of Oldenburg in Lower Saxony would often interrupt the tranquility. But when the municipality hired a former wastewater specialist from the potato processing industry, the solution was soon found. He invested in rotary lobe pumps from Vogelsang, which are resistant to foreign matter. Blockages caused by wet wipes are now a rarity.

Twin-shaft grinder vs. macerator

Safe and reliable wastewater disposal and purification is becoming increasingly important in order to protect waters and the environment and maintain a high quality of life. At the same time, sewage systems are increasingly struggling with fat bergs and wet wipes, which drive up operating costs. This makes it all the more important to integrate efficient and reliable wastewater treatment technologies.

We will tell you how you can reliably reduce solids with the right equipment and thus protect your pumps and systems from harmful foreign matter.

PREMIX NEXT LEVEL - the next generation of solid matter feeders

Highly optimized: The new generation of PreMix® solid feeders has a lot to offer!
Solid matter feeding plays an important role in biogas plant working processes. If it does not run 
smoothly or does not run at all, that has an impact on the entire plant, resulting in a decrease in 
the gas yield as well as economic efficiency. In other words, reliable solid matter feeding is a must 
for efficient biogas production.

Efficient debris management in biogas plants

Food scraps clogging the sink siphon or wet wipes causing the toilet to overflow: We all know how expensive and time-consuming problems caused by foreign objects can be. So it's no surprise that efficient foreign debris management also plays an important role in industry, wastewater technology and biogas plants. This is the only way to prevent damage or blockages to downstream elements in the long term.
