  • Patent number: 10195806
    Abstract: An embodiment of a screw press separator for separating a slurry containing solid and liquid components has a housing and a cylindrical screen, which is arranged in the housing and on which a longitudinal direction and a circumferential direction are defined. The screen is rotatable about the longitudinal direction. The separator also includes a screw arranged inside the screen for pressing out the slurry, the screw being rotatable about the longitudinal direction, at least one retaining element arranged in the housing, at least one actuator adapted to move the at least one retaining element between a locking position and a freewheeling position, and at least one stop connected to the screen. The separator is configured so that the screen is rotationally fixed in at least a circumferential direction in the locking position and the screen co-rotates with the screw in the freewheeling position.

  • Patent number: 10040008
    Abstract: The present disclosure may include a press screw separator configured for separating solid components from a slurry containing solid and liquid components. The separator may include a housing, a frame arranged in the housing, and a cylindrical screen which is arranged at least partially in the frame. The separator may also include a screw adapted for pressing out the slurry, which screw may be arranged within the screen and mounted so as to be rotationally movable about a longitudinal axis of the screen. The frame may be mounted in the housing without any clearance.

  • Publication number: 20140076801
    Abstract: A method of separating litter from liquid manure includes feeding liquid manure to a separator and squeezing particulate material from the liquid manure with the separator at a separating rate. The method also includes feeding the material to a litter reclamation plant, heating the particulate material within the litter reclamation plant from an entry temperature to a target temperature, and maintaining the particulate material above the target temperature for a duration of time. The method further includes measuring the entry temperature for a predetermined measuring interval and adjusting the separating rate if the entry temperature increases or decreases within the measuring interval.
