Size reduction and grading equipment
Most materials we handle come in the form of bales or bulky loads and so need to be reduced in size before being processed further. To do this, we have a range of medium and small-scale equipment that can decrease materials to particles to less than 1 mm.
Our small-scale equipment typically has a throughput of 4 kg/hr and includes:
- planetary ball mill
- cutting mill
- industrial food processor
Our medium-scale equipment includes the following items, with the second two capable of running at 100kg/hr.
- wood chipper
- hammer mill
- granulator
To use our size reduction and grading equipment 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.
