Sterilisation & pasteurisation

Regulation (EC) No 1069/2009 divides substrates into three categories. A separate pre-treatment of the substances is necessary, depending on their classification.

Abattoir waste requires 30 minutes of pressure sterilisation with approx. 2–3 bar overpressure at a temperature of 133 °C. Moreover, the sterilisation substances must be subjected to pre-treatment and heating or cooling. The overpressure in the sterilisation container necessitates the installation of various safety engineering facilities.

Pasteurisation is sufficient for the treatment of bio-waste, for instance. The pasteurisation takes place at 70 °C. It does not require a pressurised state and must be performed over 1 hour.

ENSPAR provides individual components and complete systems with measurement and control technology for both of these methods.

Biogas plant technology

Sectors

Profitable recycling of residues

Tons of organic residues that release methane during decomposition are accumulated in agriculture, food production and wastewater treatment. This gas can contribute significantly to climate change if it is emitted unchecked into the atmosphere.

Plant concepts

Abattoir waste system

The following section describes a biogas plant that ENSPAR implemented in eastern Europe for a pig breeding and fattening business with abattoir operations. The plant is already in operation and generates highly-efficient, energy-rich biogas. Yielding 800kW, it has an annual capacity to process and ferment up to 32,000 t of abattoir waste.
