Your Manure Separation Equipment Retailer

With our manure separation machines, you can separate your farm animals’ solid waste from liquid waste.

Now, you may be wondering why you shouldn’t just spread the manure on the fields, and while in some cases you can, separating this organic material is much more efficient and yields much more fertilizer for your fields.

When you separate manure, you are left with two discrete products. The liquid can be sprayed on the fields, and the solids can be used as animal bedding. This allows you to utilize manure as a resource for multiple purposes.

What is a Screw Press Separator?

A screw press separator, also known as a screw press dewatering machine, is a type of equipment commonly used in various industries to separate liquids from solids. It employs a mechanical pressure system to extract moisture or solids from a mixture, resulting in a more concentrated substance and a drier or cleaner byproduct. The basic design of a screw press separator consists of a cylindrical barrel or drum with a screw conveyor running through its center. The screw, typically made of stainless steel, is helically shaped and rotates within the drum. As the mixture is fed into the machine, the screw conveys and compresses it against the inner walls of the barrel.

The pressing action exerted by the screw causes the liquid component of the mixture to be forced through the screens on the drum’s surface. This allows the liquid to pass through while retaining the solids or higher-density materials inside the drum. Screw press separators are commonly used in wastewater treatment plants, agricultural operations, food processing facilities, and other industries where liquid-solid separation is required. They are particularly effective in dewatering sludge, manure, fruit and vegetable pulp, and other high-moisture content materials.

Applications of Screw Press Separator

The screw press separator is a versatile piece of equipment that has a wide range of applications in various industries. Its primary function is to separate solids from liquids or to dewater solid materials. The screw press separator achieves this by applying mechanical pressure to the mixture, forcing the liquid to pass through a screen while retaining the solid materials. One of the most common applications of the screw press separator is in livestock farming operations. It is used to separate liquid manure from solid waste, making it easier to manage and utilize the nutrients in the manure as fertilizer.

The screw press separator is also commonly used in wastewater treatment plants. It is used to remove solid waste and dewater sludge generated during the treatment process. The separator efficiently separates the liquid from the solids, reducing the volume of sludge and making it easier to handle and dispose of. The separator can also be used to separate various types of organic materials, such as fruit and vegetable waste, for composting or bioenergy production. Food processing plants also utilize the screw press separator for various applications. It is commonly used to separate liquids from solids in the production of juices, sauces, and purees. The separator can also be used to extract oil from seeds or nuts, such as soybeans or almonds, for culinary or industrial purposes.

Other industries that benefit from the screw press separator include mining, oil and gas, and chemical processing. In mining operations, the separator is used to separate solids from slurry or to dewater tailings. In the oil and gas industry, it is used to remove solids from drilling mud or to separate oil and water. In chemical processing, the separator is used for clarification, concentration, or purification of various substances.
