Manure Processing Machine

Are you searching for an efficient manure processing machine for animal waste management? Tianzhong Machinery offers a range of manure dehydrator machines for managing manure. These innovative machines effectively reduce the moisture content of manure and turning waste into valuable products. It can be used independently or work with other equipment, such as fertilizer making machine, pellet machine.

Materials can be processed:

• Livestock Manure,including cow dung, pig manure, poultry manure (chicken, duck, etc.), sheep or goat manure.
• Organic waste: This machine is also suitable for processing other organic waste materials, such as food waste, fruit or vegetable waste, crop residues,spent grains, etc.
• Biogas slurry, sludge and wastewater treatment.

1. Screw Press Separator

One of our manure handling equipment is the screw press dewatering machine. This machine consists of inlet, continuous screw, screen, discharge outlet, and motor. It mainly utilize a continuous screw and adjustable pressure to squeeze the water from the solids.

Key features and benefits:

• High dewatering efficiency, reducing moisture content effectively.
• Robust construction and corrosion-resistant materials ensure durability.
• Easy operation and low maintenance requirements.
• Variable speed control to adjust dewatering performance according to specific needs.
• Versatility to process various types of manure, and other organic materials.

2. Slope Screen Dewatering Machine

This machine is designed for processing materials with high water content (over 90%) and low solid content. It utilizes a sloping screen to efficiently drain liquid while retaining solids, resulting in a drier output material.

Key features and benefits:

• Efficient separation of liquid and solid components.
•  Adjustable screen slope and mesh size to optimize dewatering performance.
• Low energy consumption and high processing capacity.
• Entirely built with stainless steel, offering great durability and long service life.
• Self-cleaning system, helping prevent clogging and blockages.

Benefits of Manure Management

Solid-liquid separation in manure management offers several benefits:

1. Reduced Odor:  By separating solids from the liquid fraction, the odor of raw maure will be significantly reduced.

2. Easy Handling: Through liquid solid separation, the weight and volume of manure is greatly reduces. The dewatered solid is easier to transport, store and handle, which will also reduce the related costs.

3. High Economic Benefits: Dewatered manure is rich in organic matter and nutrients. It serves as an excellent soil amendment, improving soil structure, fertility, and water retention. Besides, it is also widely used as fertilizer or be composted. Moreover, the dewatered manure solids can be bedding material. By selling the solids will bring additional profits. Meanwhile, the liquid fraction is directed to anaerobic digesters for biogas production.

4. Reduced Environmental Impact: By solid-liquid separation, it can help mitigate environmental issues such as nutrient runoff, and groundwater contamination. It contributes to more sustainable and environmentally friendly agricultural practices.

Tips for Choosing Suitable Manure Handling Equipment

1. Types of manure: Determine the type of manure to be processed, such as cowdung, pig manure, poultry waste or other types. Different manure may require different dewatering equipment or different design. For example, the recommended screen mesh sizes for chicken manure (0.5mm/0.75mm), pig waste (0.75mm) and cow dung (0.75mm/1mm) are different.
2. Material characteristics: Choose the right equipment for the material you intend to process. For example, slope screen dewatering machine is suitable for processing the material with high liquid content, for example, water-soaked manure and water-washed manure.
3. Processing capacity: You need to evaluate the volume of material you need to process per day or per hour to choose a suitable capacity.
4. Moisture reduction efficiency:That is, the desired moisture content of the dewatered solids. Generally, the moisture content after dewatering is about 50%-60%, but for the materials processed by slope screen separator, the moisture content might be higher.
5. Energy consumption: Evaluate the energy efficiency of the dewatering machine.This can help reduce operational costs in the long run.
6. Space requirements: Assess the available space for installing the machine.Dewatering equipment itself requires small footprint, but you also need some construction works, such as storage tanks.
7. Budget: Consider your budget and the cost of the manure handling system, including the operational costs, maintenance, energy consumption, and other expenses.

Price and Return on Investment

Costs

• Initial Investment:

The price of a manure dewatering machine can range from a few thousand dollars to tens of thousands of dollars, depending on the size, processing capacity, material of the equipment, accessories, motor brands, etc.

•  Operational Costs:

In addition to the initial investment, you also should consider the operational costs, for example, energy consumption, water usage, maintenance costs, etc.

Using our client in Thailand as an example, they chose Siemens motors, which resulted in a higher price for the machine compared to our standard configuration.

Returns

• Reduction in Waste Disposal Costs

Manure dewatering machine is able separate solids from liquids, resulting in reduction in waste volume and weight, which makes the waste easier and to manage, transport, and dispose.

• Value of Dewatered Solids

The dewatered solids can be used as fertilizer or soil amendment or further processed into organic fertilizer, bedding materials, etc. It will bring higher economic benefits by selling or utilizing the dewatered manure.

• Time and Labor Savings

A manure management system is easy to operate and it can work continuously, reducing the time and labor required for manual handling.
