Treatment
of liquid manure
The
effluent which comes from pig farming, commonly known as pig
manure, represents a serious environmental problem in areas
with a high incidence of this type of farming. Swine liquid
manure surplus is a highly polluting waste that must be treated
in order to avoid its negative effects on the environment.

| The
problem with pig manure is its content of contaminants, in particular
the nitrogen and pathogenic agents which affect the soil, surface
waters and the atmosphere. |

Guascor
has combined the energetic efficiency of its gas engines with
environmental impact mitigation, by developing its own technology
for liquid manure treatment and valorization.
The
production process makes full use of the energy, exceeding 90%
of primary energy usage, which is used in treating 100,000 m3
of pig manure per year and the plant ( 46,000 pigs for plant).

Technology
basics
|
 |
| |
The
elimination of effluent reaching the exterior and the minimising
of all types of emissions is achieved by means of this technology,
and in doing so offering a solution to a serious environmental problem.
