Sustainable solutions for poultry manure

Dorset Green Machines is a leading global designer, manufacturer and marketer of biomass drying systems. With the help of the Dorset Dryer, poultry manure can be dried throughout the year and converted either into organic fertilizer or fuel. The required warm air for the drying process can for instance be derived from stable air, or it can be residual heat from the generation of electricity. Dorset dryers are frequently used for drying chicken manure with the help of warm air from stables. Most of these installations do not use pre-drying in the stable, which leads to substantial savings in electricity costs. The air from the stables that is utilized usually has a temperature of approximately 20°C. This is sufficient for drying the produced manure. Still, the higher the temperature and the lower the air humidity, the better the drying process will be. Drying significantly reduces storage and transport costs. The dried product can be sold as valuable organic fertilizer or as fuel for green energy or can be processed further. Dorset manufactures complete pelletizing plants in plug-and-play container solutions. Pelletizing makes the dried product more marketable and significantly decreases the volume, which results in new export possibilities and further lower transport and storage costs.
