Vogelsang USA, a manufacturer based in Ravenna, Ohio, has launched the CC-Mix, a new technology designed to enhance biogas production. The CC-Mix is marketed as an efficient and versatile solution aimed at simplifying the processing of diverse feedstocks in biogas plants, reports Waste Today.
According to the company, the CC-Mix is adept at converting a variety of organic materials into a homogeneous suspension ideal for fermentation. It can process renewable resources, flowable solid matter such as maize silage and grain waste, as well as slightly pasty materials like fruit and vegetable waste, sugar beet pulp, and dry chicken manure. This broadens the range of feedstocks that can be utilised in biogas plants.
With power requirements of 11-15 kW, the CC-Mix is positioned as an energy-efficient choice, featuring robust mixing capabilities that create optimal conditions for bacterial activity in digesters. To maximise efficiency and reduce operational disruptions, the CC-Mix includes an integrated foreign matter separator that ensures heavy materials like stones and metal parts are removed before reaching the pump, preventing damage. Its compact design and simplified controls enable easy integration into biogas plants, with the capability to feed multiple digesters from a single unit. The QuickService concept reduces downtime during service and maintenance, with key components like the rotor and stator designed to swivel out as a unit for quick removal. Optional control technology, including a wide-screen touch display and two-stage geometry, enhances the overall operation.
