ecoDRYER: Digestate drying for AD plants
Organicco's ecoDRYER focuses on digestate drying for suitable anaerobic digestion (AD) applications. Each project requires a review of the material, available heat and site integration requirements.
The ecoDRYER approach considers how available thermal energy at an AD plant could support digestate drying. Feasibility and operating requirements depend on the site's heat supply, digestate characteristics and equipment configuration.
Rotary-drum drying and associated feed, discharge and handling requirements should be assessed against the material and intended output. Any output-quality or treatment claims require suitable validation.
Before recommending a configuration, Organicco can discuss the existing AD operation, technical constraints, intended product and project needs.
Custom configuration
A technical assessment should cover the current plant operation, digestate characteristics, available heat and connections to the proposed drying equipment. Requirements can then be discussed in the context of the individual site.
Capacity and modular design
Required throughput and future expansion should be reviewed as part of project feasibility. The suitable configuration depends on feedstock properties, moisture reduction requirements, utilities and site constraints.
Engineering and project support
Installation, operation, maintenance and any proposed service arrangements should be agreed for the particular project. Technical and commercial terms can be discussed during evaluation.
