Plant systems

Standardised plant systems

• A progressive reduction in costs thanks to standardised essential plant components.
• No additional mixing water is required. As a result, there is also a reduction in the amount of fermentation residue which leads to a reduction in the removal quantity and thus in removal costs.
• Minimal plant energy requirement thanks to efficient drive technology from 2.2 kW.
• Forced mixing through a slow-running, horizontal stirring mechanism in an extremely robust design with fan-type agitator blades.
• The nature of the design avoids floating and sinking layers.
• A central, heated stirrer shaft ensures efficient heat distribution -> necessary for a stable biological process.
• Owing to its reduced volume (400 - 800m³) less heat must be fed to the fermenter -> more heat is available for external sale.
• The substrate is pumped in a warm and homogenised state into the second-stage fermenter in order that gas is obtained without temperature fluctuations there too.
• Compared to round fermenters, small volumes from 400 m³ allow countermeasures to be taken very quickly (in the event of acidification, incorrect feeding etc.) in order to stabilise the process.
• Professional, sensory monitoring: apart from filling-level and temperature measurement, the first gas measurement is taken directly after release from the Euco.
• Standardised technology allows short reaction times during service work.
