Massive amounts of diverse wastes are produced daily in slaughterhouses, posing a significant challenge to all such operations. Separators play a critical role in disposal management and assist slaughterhouses in complying with environmental regulations, which are particularly strict in the meat processing industry. With efficient solid/liquid separation, waste water can be reused and waste volumes reduced, saving on expenses for transport and disposal. Separated slaughterhouse wastes can also be processed into compost, spread as fertiliser or used for the production of biogas.
FAN offers a full product range for solid/liquid separation and the dewatering of solids at slaughterhouses of all sizes. Depending on the material in question, the disposal costs can be reduced by up to 75%.
In the industry, the waste water from slaughterhouses is divided into various streams, called green, red and yellow lines.
The green line includes waste water arising in the course of deliveries to the slaughterhouse, such as water from washing the trucks that deliver the animals. The separated solid consists largely of plant matter and can be composted, for example. The dewatering of rumen contents also falls within the green line. The red line consists of all the waste water arising in the slaughterhouse itself. The yellow line is made up of the stomach and intestine contents, which can be reduced significantly in volume via solid/liquid separation. The requirements on the separation technology differ for each of these three lines.
Please note that our company will be closed from the 21st of December 2024 to the 1st of January 2025 due to the Christmas Holidays.
