EUCO Plant System Brochure

Plant systemsThe EUCO Titan plant system has been continually developed since the company's formation in 1995 and has been optimised specifically for the fermentation of sustainable raw materials, i.e. energy crops. Its high level of efficiency makes it attractive, not only to agricultural businesses, but also to investors, and international and local energy utilities.The standardised design of our EUCO Titan system allows fast and trouble-free construc-tion and commissioning of your biogas plant.Reliable operationAll plant components are optimally coordina-ted to work together. The uniform charging of the most diverse feedstock, robust agitator technology, extensive measuring and control systems, all combined with professional con-trol technology ensure reliable plant operation and a stable fermentation process. Our tech-nical and biological service teams are on hand 24/7 h to provide you with assistance.Operator-friendly The compact design of our plant system requires much less space than other biogas plants. Its attractive appearance integrates well into rural surroundings, and all official requirements concerning noise and odour emissions are fulfilled.Plant extensions are also possible at any time:Its modular design means a plant can be upgraded to increase installed capacity at any time.Plant components 1.

Its elongated horizontal form was developed to ferment biomass with very high proportions of dry matter. Even dry fermentation is possible.In the EUCO TS, a horizontal paddle agitator mixes solid feedstock with pre-fermented material. The agitator is driven on both ends by a 3 kW planetary drive unit. The position-ing of the agitator and its individual paddles in the digester provide optimum mixing and allow operation with high volume loads. The main function of the EUCO is to liquify (hydrolysis) the solid feedstock to provide the second-stage digester with well broken-down material. As a result of hydrolysis and the homogenisation of the feedstock, less mixing is required at the second stage. However, the EUCO is not merely a hydrolysing digester, it even produces approximately 50 % of the biogas yield. This feature of the EUCO allows greater fl exibility in your choice of feedstock. In combination with the second-stage di-gester, maximum gas yields can be achieved.Multiple temperature and fi lling level monitor-ing as well as biogas analysis ensures reliable and continuous operation.The EUCO TS sets standards for the effi cient fermentation of energy crops.Ef? cient digester mixing ensures:? Even temperature distribution? No fl oating layer build up? No sinking layer build up / minimisation of sedimentation? Continual gas extraction? Even mixing of fresh feedstock with digestate? Stable biological process managementThe result: maximum ef? ciencyThe EUCO TS offers the greatest feedstock fl exibility, maximum volume loads combined with consistent and stable biogas production.Drive unitAgitator paddleAgitator shaft
