Role of Dewatering Machine in Manure Management

Applications of Dewatered Manure

Dewatered cow dung contains a substantial amount of nitrogen, so it can be directly applied as fertilizer for plants. Besides, it also serves as excellent raw material for producing high-quality organic fertilizer after fermentation process. Additionally, it can be a valuable resource for cultivating mushrooms by being mixed with sawdust or for bedding materials.

On the other hand, the dewatered pig manure may contain an excess of heavy metals, so it can’t be used as fertilizer directly. But it can be processed into organic fertilizer through a fermentation process, thereby reducing environmental impact.

As for the solid components of chicken manure, they can be utilized as a nutritious feed for pigs and cows. Besides, they can be used directly as fertilizer or processed into organic fertilizer after fermentation, adding further value to the manure.

Turning Animal Manure into Fertilizer

The dewatered manure offers numerous advantages and applications, particularly in the production of organic fertilizer. Below let’s review the process of converting animal manure into organic fertilizer:

1. Manure Fermentation: The dewatered manure undergoes fermentation and decomposition. The high temperatures generated during this process effectively eliminate harmful bacteria and insect eggs, ensuring the safety of the final organic fertilizer.

2. Pulverization: After fermentation, the livestock manure is pulverized to achieve a uniform and granular texture, facilitating easier handling and application.

3. Mixing: Depending on specific requirements or formulations, appropriate additives are mixed with the organic fertilizer to enhance its overall quality and nutrient content.

4. Pelletization: Utilizing a specialized pelletizer machine, the mixed raw materials are shaped into uniform organic fertilizer pellets, allowing for convenient storage and precise application.

5. Drying and Cooling: The pellets are dried to evaporate excess moisture, promoting longer shelf life and preventing clumping. After cooling down, the organic fertilizer is ready for packaging and sale.

Role of Manure Dewatering Machine in Fertilizer Production

Manure dewatering is important in efficient processing of organic fertilizers production. Let’s explore the role of the manure dewatering machine in a fertilizer production line:

1. Solid-Liquid Separation: The primary function of the manure dewatering machine is to efficiently separate the solid and liquid fractions of the animal waste. By removing excess water from the manure, it becomes easier to handle and transport during the fertilizer production process. Moreover, dewatering significantly reduces the volume and weight of the manure, leading to lower transportation costs and less storage space.

2. Enhanced Fermentation: The dewatered manure contains a higher concentration of nutrients, particularly nitrogen. This nutrient-rich solid manure is ideal for composting and fermentation processes, allowing for the efficient breakdown of organic matter and the development of high-quality organic fertilizer.

3. Increased Fertilizer Quality: The dewatered manure serves as a superior raw material for organic fertilizer production. Its improved nutrient concentration and consistency contribute to the creation of nutrient-rich, uniform, and high-quality organic fertilizer products.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the manure dewatering machine plays a crucial role in manure management and turning waste into valuable products. Combining manure dewatering machine with organic fertilizer production process will improve the fertilizer quality and production efficiency.

What principles does Shunxin manure separator equipment use?

Shunxin manufactures two different solid liquid separation machine for you to choose: slanting sieving type and screw press dewatering machine. They adopts different working principle for separating liquid from solid manure materials. Here you can know how do they work and it is alternative for you to choose according to your preference.

How does slanting sieving manure dewatering machine work?

There is a fluid pump, which can pump manure from feeding port to the top of separation machine. Then the manure materials will be flow into auger through the screen. There will be a screw auger and screen for stirring, pressing and separating. Some liquid will be out from the water outlet. While, there is an overflow port for discharging excess fluids. The dewatered solid manure will be out from the discharging outlet.

How does Shunxin manure dewatering screw press machine separate liquid from solid manure?

There is a pump for feeding manure into machine. There is a squeezing auger for pushing manure materials to the front of machine. Meanwhile, the increasing pressure makes the liquid manure out from the screen and flow from exhaust water pipe. Because of the continuity of feeding, the manure materials will be more and more inside machine. Once there are too much materials, the dewatered manure materials will be out from the discharging out.

How to deal with the problems during the dewatering process?

When you dewater manure, there will be some problems. They may influence your fertilizer production. Thus, it is necessary for you to know some resolutions to technical issue.

What to do if it is difficult for you to feed materials into machine?

If the feeding port is obstructed or the pump is damaged, this phenomenon may occur. And then you should make it clear that the problem is feeding port or pump. If it is feeding port, you should clean it. Or you had better change a new pump.

How to deal with the abnormal discharging?

If there is a balancing weight, you should adjust the positions of balancing weight. Or, it may be caused by the spring. It is applicable for you to adjust the tightness of spring. And then, the manure dewatering machine will be discharging normally.

How should you do if dewatered manure materials are too watery?

If you meet this problem, the screen may be obstructed. The liquid cannot be out from the screen in time. For solving this problem, it is necessary for you to clean the screen but not increase the pressure of discharging port. Because the strong pressure may break the screen.

How to clean the manure separator equipment when you finish dewatering?

Using manure separator equipment for a long time, there will be much ash inside the machine. It is an important thing for you to clean the filter bag. Then how to clean it well? Here are 3 methods for your reference.

Utilize the wind for blowing ash

This cleaning method takes advantages of wind. The wind makes the filter bag of manure separator deform. Meanwhile, the dust will leave filter bag because of the vibrating. For your information, if you use this method for cleaning, the dust should have certain thickness. Or, the cleaning effects will be bad.

Pulsing

It mainly uses the pulse for vibrating the dust of filter bag. There is a pulse valve, which can send air for cleaning dust. It utilizes the high-speed airflow for deforming the filter bag and then vibrate dust from filter bag.

Mechanical removal

There are high frequency oscillation, artificial shaking and mechanical vibration for you to choose. Moreover, this cleaning method is the simplest among all the cleaning methods.
