Macerator
The macerator is capable of reducing solids to small pieces; producing slurries and processing biomass materials with high water content.
The unit can macerate a variety of biomass including sludge, industrial waste and food manufacturing waste. It is capable of breaking down materials for further processing and ease of handling up to 100 kilograms per hour.
To date, the BDC has used the macerator to process a variety of vegetable peelings and fruit waste, including potato and lemon peel, sugar beet and municipal waste.
Technical specification, for more information visit the Haigh website.
To use the macerator or find out more about its capabilities, please contact us.
We have an extensive range of pre-processing equipment, see below.
Pre-processing
Macerator
The macerator is capable of reducing solids to small pieces; producing slurries and processing biomass materials with high water content.
Microbiology facilities
Our microbiology laboratory offers a range of equipment allowing users to safely handle, store and work with a variety of aerobic and anaerobic microbes, at ACDP hazard category II level.
Pelletising
Pelletising is the process of compressing light material into the form of a pellet. This has many advantages, mainly by reducing dust in transport and increasing the density of the material being transported.
Seed processing
We have a range of pre-processing equipment to enable us to work with the interesting oils found in seed crops.
Size reduction & grading
Size reduction equipment, such as a cutting mill, a hammer mill or a granulator, with capacities ranging from 4 kg/h to 100 kg/h.
Let's work together
We have worked on 1,500 bio-based projects to date
We have several ways to work with us, including business advisory programmes and self-funded commercial options. We even have the option for you to hire our state-of-the-art laboratory equipment and office space.
