Deliveries arrive at
site and are weighed
at the weighbridge.
Weighbridge
A delivery approaches
the fast opening/
closing roller doors of
the reception building.
Delivery vehicle
drives into the
reception building
and the roller doors
close automatically
behind it.
Roller doors open automatically, and
biofilter extraction doubles in power to
create a negative pressure inside the
shed, drawing outside air into the shed.
Food waste is emptied
into the import bunker.
Food waste is
transferred into the
de-packaging unit via
a combination of
walking floors and
augers to obtain a
clean feedstock.
Grass/maize is either
unloaded in the
reception hall for
immediate use,
otherwise it is emptied
into a clamp in the feed
store.
Solid crops are
mixed with slurries to
obtain a feedstock of
the correct
consistency.
Slurries are
unloaded directly
into the sealed
underground slurry
tank via a filling
cone.
All the different feedstocks are
piped into the food buffer tank.
Here they are blended together to
obtain the perfect nutritional
composition required by the micro-
organisms to breakdown the
organic material and create
biogas.
