Anaerobic digestion is a biological process for decomposing various materials that is primarily used for the production of biogas. Anaerobic digestion involves the breakdown (decomposition) of organic waste materials such as sewage and slurry.
What is the difference between a chopper pump and a macerator pump?
While both chopper and macerater pumps will break down fibrous materials, a chopper pump is a heavier-duty option designed for particularly difficult applications such as handling raw slurry. Macerator pumps are aimed at handling softer solids, such as general wastewater.
What is a piston pump?
Piston pumps are a kind of positive displacement pump where a piston moves the fluid. They are designed with liquids containing heavy solids in mind, with Cri-man's PLD system being capable of handling up to 18% total solids.
What is ATEX?
