Weltec Biopower set to introduce new processing system in Germany

The Kumac slurry and digestate processing system appeared at Energy Decentral, Nov. 15 to 18 in Hanover, Germany.


Weltec Biopower, Vechta, Germany, presented its comprehensive portfolio of anaerobic digestion technologies and services at Energy Decentral in Hanover, Germany, Nov. 15 to 18. The biogas manufacturer‘s team will be on site to welcome visitors at Stand D 11 in Hall 25. For the first time, Weltec will showcase the efficient slurry and digestate processing system Kumac.

The fully automated processing system Kumac is designed to reduce liquid manure and digestate volume by 50 percent. In a four-stage procedure, clear water, liquid fertilizer concentrate and valuable solid matter are extracted from the source material. The processing system is designed to represent a sustainable, economic solution for mitigating the impact of the nutrient surplus by reducing the volume of slurry and improving its transportability. The Kumac technology has already been used in the Netherlands and Belgium for several years.

Furthermore, Weltec will give visitors recommendations as to how they can optimize existing biogas plants. Based on a thorough analysis of the respective framework conditions, the biogas specialists will prepare a custom-tailored concept for the improvement of the plant performance—regardless of how old the plant is and no matter whether waste or agricultural substrates are used.

At the Energy Decentral, visitors can get information on Weltec‘s comprehensive services in the fields of CHP units, engineering mechanics and biology. With its 24/7 availability and its internal lab, the German biogas specialist ensures successful biogas operation on a long-term basis.

Additionally, Weltec will show fair visitors the Mulitimix. The retrofittable liquid input system for biogas plants shreds fibrous feedstock and separates foreign matter, designed to allow operators to make use of alternative substrates.
