The equipment for the fixed stabling cattlesheds are referable to the stalls that can be short or long. "OLANDA"- AND "AMERICA"-TYPE SHORT STALLS The "America" stall is a special development of the short stall, normally used in case of sheds where cattle can pasture. It allows the contemporaneous release and capture of many animals. "TICINO"- AND "LOMBARDIA"-TYPE LONG STALLS Back to: Home page - Products - Zootechnical equipment for cattle |

| Rota Guido - Facilities and equipment for zootechnics About us Services Products Exhibitions Agents News Newsletter Links Contact us info@rotaguido.it Products _________________________________________________________________ Home page > Products > Zootechnical equipment for cattle > Equipment for the free stabling The functionality of the free shed is connected with the arrangement of the various constituents. In particular, it's obvious that the different arrangement of the passages, the communicating gangways, the drinking troughes, the fodder-trough front and the rest areas has a marked impact on the functionality of the shed and its running results. The correct manufacture of the different equipment is therefore an essential factor, but not sufficient, for the best result that will be assured only if the equipment is correctly arranged compared to the rooms, the transport and the animals' needs. FODDER-RACKS CATCHING RACK It is essential to assure an easy and effortless examination of the animals with the possibility of blocking for the periodic treatment and inspection operations. ANTICHOCKING RACK It is the evolution of the catching rack with the difference that it allows the opening and the release of the animal's head from the lower part too by preventing the animal from choking in case of fall. ARCHED CATCHING RACK It is particularly suitable for horned animals that would have difficulty in going into the traditional rack. PREFABRICATED VIBRATED FERROCONCRETE STRUCTURES FODDER-TROUGHES The fodder-trough and the rack wall can be made with prefabricated manufactures suitably reinforced so as to bear the weight of the covering framework for the feeding and foddering area. The choice of vibrated ferroconcrete fodder-troughes and beds allows the realization of self-supporting prefabricated structures that don't require any other foundations work. The choice of vibrated ferroconcrete fodder-troughes and beds allows the realization of self-supporting prefabricated structures that don't require any other foundations work. BEDS The occupation degree of the beds depends not only on the correct dimensioning, base factor of the solution, but also on the ground structure, on its looseness and on the design of the stable rails. The correct mix of these factors assures an exploitation by the animals up to the expected advantages with regard to the cleanliness of the animals, a better quality of the milk and the speeing up of the milking operations. BASES FOR BEDS The bases for beds can be made of prefabricated ferroconcrete suitably reinforced so as to bear the weight of the covering framework of the rest area. Bases for beds can be "basin-type" for beds with litter or "with flat floor" for the use of carpets or mattresses. The choice of vibrated ferroconcrete fodder-troughes and beds allows the realization of self-supporting prefabricated structures that don't require any other foundations work. STABLE RAILS FOR BEDS The stable rail must be conceived so as to assure the correct positioning during the rest time and, at the same time, the best comfort for the animal. A wide range of stable rails can meet the various stabling typologies, on litter or mattress, and the different animals. ADJUSTABLE BEDS A very interesting solution is the choice of beds for the post-weaning period and the young breeding cows. Animals like this solution and learn to know their beds rapidly. For a successful result during this breeding phase, the stable rails shall be assembled on adjustable frames so that they can easily adapted to the actual size of the animals. UMATTRESSES FOR BEDS A wide range of carpets and mattesses offers the most suitable solution for any farm typology and microclimatic condition. The experience developed allows to clearly characterize the ideal mattress as: - soft - resilient - disinfectable - hard-wearing ROTA SOFTY-MATTRESS ROTA SOFTY-MATTRESS, is the new mattress, designed and produced by Rota Guido S.r.l. It's a new concept of mattress for beds consisting of a very soft base and a special covering cloth. The base consists of a single mattress for every bed, with a thickness of 40 mm and a specific density so as to combine the best softness with a high impact strength. Thanks to its high resilience it models itself under the pressure of the animal's body and takes its shape again when the animal moves away. The cover consists of a specially conceived single cloth representing the contact surface with the animal; it is acid- and shock-resistant, non-deformable, waterproof, with an easy-to-clean smooth surface and a low abrasive degree so as to reduce the friction lesions. MULTIPURPOSE STALLS They shall meet different requirements, it is therefore necessary to assure their greatest use flexibility. They are essential in every zootechnical centre organized and managed in a modern manner that shall be provided with steaming-up stalls, calving stalls, infirmary stalls, post-calving starter stalls, bull's stalls. CALVING AND INFIRMARY STALLS They are usually arranged to house single or few animals. A very useful feature is the possibility of holding the animal in the rest or feeding area so as to make the tending and feeding operations and the litter-making easier. BULL'S STALL The bull's stall shall have a corner fodder-trough with catching device and passage. The arrangement of the breeding stall is essential for the execution of the operations in compliance with the operators' safety. A special and interesting solution of cattleshed for "progeny test" with single stalls for breeding bulls. Back to: Home page - Products - Zootechnical equipment for cattle |

The 100x200cm single stalls for the calves' weaning are the perfect solution, as they have a raised and grid-bottom to assure a continuous drainage of the litter that keeps dry and comfortable. The stall covers, roof and side walls, create a suitable microclimate and they assure, at the same time, the isolation of the animals. The tip-up pail holder for milk and water and the hay- and fodder-trough can be placed on the gate. The location of the stalls on opposed rows and the installation of a covering structure allow to assure better working conditions for the operators and, consequently, a better control on the animals. For bigger farmings, it is advisable to subdivide the stalls into several units so as to make the washing and disinfection operations easier. The common post-weaning stalls raised or on the ground, with or without external park, represent the calf pen for the first period, for calves aged from 2 to 6 months, and they are the perfect solution to condition the calves to the social life. Stalls for 6-10 heads and 10-15 heads are available. The calves' weaning unit is also optimized with a line of special accessories necessary for a correct management. Very useful accessories are, for instance, the calving-help trolley, the mixer for the preparation and the distribution of the milk and the calf trolley.

The planimetric arrangement for shelters of these sectors provides for a rest area on litter (3-6 sqm/head up to an age of about 16 months and 6-8 sqm/head until the calving) and the feeding area on full ground with mechanized cleaning, or on split ground. The catching and antichoking rack has different dimensions (height and cross distance) according to the age of the animals. The fencing and the gates as well shall be properly conceived so as to isolate all the animals during the feeding time simultaneously with the removal of the litter. The solution with adjustable beds is interesting because of both the smaller room needed and its training function; since the beginning, it assures the full occupation of the beds in the shed of the milch cows by removing any problem of adaptation.

The sheds for the cow-calf line farming shall keep clearly separate the areas for brood cows from those for young breeding cows, bulls, multipurpose stalls; a special importance shall be given to the calves' stalls where calves are given their necessary food integration. The `wild state' stabling solutions have specialized equipment. - The "Hay-troughes" are necessary to give the animals the proper food integrations. Their shifting is easier as they can be coupled with the three-point connection of the tractor. - The hopper containers for the concentrated fodder are usually meant for calves. For that reason, they can be either placed in delimited areas or provided with a barrier preventing the adult animals from eating the fodder. Pens and corrals are very important in organizing the farming. They allow to control, to confine and to catch the animals so as to execute all the management and control operations on the herd in full obedience of the operators' safety.

The arrangement of reliable watering equipment, capable of protecting its quality, is therefore crucial for the farming success. WATERING BASINS FOR FIXED STALLS AND MULTIPURPOSE STALLS They are made of high quality cast iron and they are easy to clean. Available with spring or counterweight valve. CONSTANT-LEVEL WATERING BASINS FOR MULTIPURPOSE AND CALVES' STALLS They have a ball cock allowing a sufficient flow of water even at low pressure. CONSTANT-LEVEL DRINKING TROUGH Presently, it is the most common drinking trough. It is provided with connections for suitable water flow, overflow level, bottom drainage and junctions for its easy installation in the free stabling sheds. It can be directly fed by means of a ball cock or integrated in a costant-level system. Available in different dimensions: 60x30 cm for a single animal, 100x30 cm and 200x30 cm for the contemporaneous watering of many animals. COSTANT-LEVEL TIPPING TROUGHES The constant-level drinking troughes can be installed on a special support provided with tipping device that allows their easy and complete draining so as to make the water change and the thorough cleaning of the trough easier. Usually, the drinking troughes are 1, 2 and 3 m long. They are fitted with a special high-flow float assuring a fast filling even when many animals are watering. A special device on the adduction valve and the possibility of recirculation allow a water availability even during particularly cold periods. ANTIFREEZING DRINKING TROUGH For areas with harsh climate we offer insulated drinking troughes with closing floating ball that assure the water supply even in case of freezing external temperature. This solution requires a greater attention to the control of the hygiene of the water in the trough. It is advisable to have a parallel line of drinking troughes to be used when the animals' water need is greater. Available with single- or two-place.

The functionality of the shed depends on the correct realization of the different components, and mainly on their integration as to areas, movements and animals' comfort requirement, by making the operators' activity easier. FODDER-RACKS The special shape and the dimensions of the neck, the head and the horns make often the use of catching racks difficult. Two-bar racks, being the lower bar travelling and adjustable in height, give good results. This lower bar shall be moved forward so as to assure a correct positioning in the fodder-trough and to avoid any lesion to the animal. VIBRATED FERROCONCRETE STRUCTURES AND FRAMEWORKS PREFABRICATED VIBRATED FERROCONCRETE FODDER-TROUGH The fodder-trough and the rack wall can be made with prefabricated structures suitably reinforced so as to bear the weight of the covering framework for the feeding and foddering area. PREFABRICATED BASES FOR BEDS WITH CONTROL BASIN AND FLAT LITTER The bases for beds can be made of prefabricated ferroconcrete suitably reinforced so as to bear the weight of the covering framework of the rest area. Bases for beds can be "basin-type" for beds with litter or "with flat floor" for the use of carpets or mattresses. The choice of vibrated ferroconcrete fodder-troughes and beds allows the realization of self-supporting prefabricated structures that don't require any other foundations work. It is possible to produce structures with single or double feeding passages, for rest areas with 2 and 3 bed rows and whole sheds. STABLE RAILS FOR BEDS AND MATTRESSES The range of stable rails ROTA STANDARD and ROTA COMFORT can meet the various stabling typologies, on litter or mattress, and the different breed and size of the animals.

|
| Rota Guido - Facilities and equipment for zootechnics About us Services Products Exhibitions Agents News Newsletter Links Contact us info@rotaguido.it Products _________________________________________________________________ Home page > Products > Zootechnical equipment for sheep and goats The sheep sector is presently going through a period of transition and renewal. From the old rural practice we are coming to more professional and organized requirements. We need therefore simple, prompt, easy-to-apply innovatory technologies. These requirements are more evident in the milking sector, where tradition is deep-seated and more settled and the fast and positive attainment of the expected technological and structural improvements is more important from the economic point of view, considering the marked trend and the significant potentiality of the sector to this evolution. Sheep and goat sector LAYOUT OF THE ZOOTECHNICAL SHELTER In order to get a functional running of the farming and a suitable return, without neglecting the animals' comfort and consequently the yield, it is necessary to subdivide the sheepfold into the following functional areas: stall for animals in production stall for farming and young breeding animals feeding area (step) foddering passage service gangways and external fences waiting room to milking milking room milk room post-milking stall ram's stall lambing stall isolation stall weaning stall solids storing floors sewage tank fodder and hay stores toolshed Sheep and goat sector Sheep and goat sector STALL WITH REST, WATERING AND FEEDING AREA A widely used solution provides for stalls on deep litter with straw or chips (thickness of about 30-40 cm) to be removed about 2-3 times every year, on the occasion of the land manuring operations. Multiple stalls are usually adopted as they can house a variable number of animals according to the size of the farming and its organization. - Hot-galvanized steel bearing structure - Ferroconcrete foundations with string courses that serve as control walls of the sewage tanks Sheep and goat sector Sheep and goat sector The feeding area consists of a step with sloping floor (about 3 cm) placed inside the stall between the litter surface and the feeding rack wall. 80 / 100 cm wide, it is bounded by the feeding rack wall on the fodder-trough side. The feeding rack, whose cross distance for an adult head changes from 25 to 33 cm according to the breed, shall be a "catching" type (available for animals with or without horns), so as to allow the seizing of the animals by making the treatment and control operations easier. As to the watering place, the most common solution is the constant-level basin (standard dimensions: 20x80 cm) so as to allow the contemporaneous access of two animals without large amounts of stagnant water. Sheep and goat sector Sheep and goat sector SERVICE GANGWAYS - EXTERNAL FENCES The external area - very useful - should measure 2,5-3,5 m_/head when floored, and 5-8 m_/head when ground floor. It is usually bounded by hot-galvanized steel fences provided with suitable openings, min. 3 m wide, so as to allow the cleaning means to get in. The use of the `unifeed' trolley in the sheep and goat farming gave very good results, for both the recycling of the farm products and the bigger productions that have been registered in the farmings that used it first. When, for lack of room, large gangways are not possible, or when you plan to mechanize still further the farming, it is possible to use automatic belts with single or double useful side that feed the different stalls. Powered belts which are available in different width: 30 cm with wall-mounted single fodder-trough; 60 cm with central double fodder-trough for animals without horns, 75 cm with double fodder-trough for horned animals. Sheep and goat sector Sheep and goat sector CONTROL EQUIPMENT In order to assure the greatest functionality of shelters, especially in large-sized centres, it is advisable to arrange additional running structures, such as sorting passages, corrals and passages for health treatments and examinations. Every corral shall usually hold all the animals of one stall and have a surface of 0,3 m_/head. It is possible to provide the corral with a special catching device that overturns and immobilizes the animal by making all the tending and control operations easier. Sheep and goat sector Sheep and goat sector MULTIPURPOSE STALLS FOR LAMBING, INFIRMARY, RAMS AND WEANING STALLS FOR LAMBS AND KIDS The early weaning in single stalls takes usually place for fattening males or for twin lambs rejected by their mother. Practically, they are prefabricated stalls with washable walls to house the single animal when it needs special attention and care. The stalls for male animals shall have comfortable dimensions and arrangement. They are divided into multiple stalls for young animals and single stalls for adult animals. Lambs are usually weaned by means of two different ways: * early weaning in single stalls * weaning on ground in multiple stalls. The weaning on ground in multiple stalls is executed in stalls with wire net partition walls that house groups of about 20-40 lambs. Sheep and goat sector Sheep and goat sector MILKING ROOM The milking system influences the managing and production results of the farming and it can be: linear diagonal rotating The number of stalls and milking units shall be settled according to the total heads in production, to the numerousness of the groups of animals and to the organization of the operators. For small farmings, milking ramps with 8-12 stalls and 2-3 milking pails are available, allowing the small farmers to get the advantages of the milking plant. For subdivided and/or displaced farmings it is possible to use a special milking wagon. It is a whole plant, fully assembled on a wagon drawn by a tractor, that gives all the features and the advantages of a fixed plant to the farmers that, for logistic problems, have several groups of animals.

This is not simply a consequence of the different productive typologies (closed-cycle or opened-cycle farmings for the rearing of piglets or fattening pigs, for slaughter or for industry), but it is mainly a result of the different zootechnical approaches employed. Anyway, every different solution has to weigh the planning standards listed below: pigs size, food requirements, water needs, live weight of the whole piggery, defecations produced, number of places to be arranged for in the zootechnical centre, diverse farming areas.

As a result, shelters, together with their equipment and systems, have become themselves real factors of production, which are able to influence the results of the farming activity (both from a qualitative and quantitative point of view), and which cannot be disregarded in order not to endanger the economic results of the farming. Two-layer perimetric covering walls with an excellent insulating power and complete absence of thermal bridges. External covering sandwich-board thick. 80 and internal one in Phed thick. 53, perfectly washable. This kind of solution guarantees the highest hygienic and sanitary standards. Polypropylene panelling floors supported by stainless steel uprights and sections. Equipment for the realization of PVC, Phed and stainless steel boards stalls, both fixed and openable. Liquid or dry feeding facilities, with possibility of food distribution at will or computer-controlled. Stainless steel mangers, feeders and fodder-troughs, for a correct feeding ration supply. False ceiling in micropierced fibreglass panelling, which guarantees a uniform distribution of air, together with the highest comfort for the animals. Forced ventilation system with clear air coming in from the loft and air-exchange guaranteed by pipe fans and control computer and management of the environmental microclimate. Heating system supplied by warm-air generators, or by `Delta' pipes with registers and control computers. It is also possible to get central or local boilers.

Besides its dimensions, width, length and height, the cage is characterized by the features of its different components and namely by: * type of floor: the front part is made of concrete screed, preferably "hot", while the rear part, about 80-100 cm, has a grating floor that can be realized with either vibrated reinforced concrete or galvanized steel or PVC-coated.. * type of external barriers: the side barriers or stable rails can be made of crude, hot-galvanized or stainless steel, with vertical round bars or horizontal tubes differently shaped according to their use. The rear gate can be `blind' or `open', depending on the presence of split floors in the rear passage and the necessity to reach the sow easily. * type of fodder-trough: it depends on the feeding typology, either `dry' or `liquid' and on any feeding systems. SECOND STAGE OF GESTATION An important part of the new regulation pertaining to animals' welfare, concerns pregnant sows. Important changes regarding space, flooring, type of stabling and feeding systems have been there introduced. As far as the type of stabling for pregnant sows is concerned, cages are abolished throughout the whole period of gestation. The implementation of the above-mentioned regulations leads to obvious problems related to the competitiveness within the different groups of sows, but also to difficulties regarding the management and the accomplishment of everyday operations of control and tending of animals. Rota Guido S.r.l., leader in the development of advanced technologies within the zootechnical farming long since, has developed a range of equipment and plants particularly suited for a correct management of sows bred in groups. FEEDING-STALLS WITH CATCHING SYSTEM FOR SOWS IN GROUPS They basically consist of cages for pregnant sows and/or young sows, like the fodder-stalls model, so that the animal is obliged to pass through them in order to get access to the feed hopper or to the fodder-trough. Peculiar rocker-arm devices or gates with control levers, let the animal eat its own ration quietly without being attacked by higher-ranking sows. In order to reduce the competitiveness during the feeding time, special feeding plants have also been arranged for a correct distribution of feed. BIOLOGICAL-FIXATION CONTEMPORANEOUS FEEDING FOR SOWS The contemporaneous feeding system allows sows in groups to eat quietly and at the same time. Another interesting solution for sows bred in groups is represented by the computerized system called CALLMATIC, which can be either employed for sows on straw, or on solid and/or split vibrated ferroconcrete floor. CALLMATIC system "food on request" makes possible the individual feeding of sows bred in groups. This type of farming, if well organized, is highly beneficial to animals, since it put at their disposal a wider space, which, together with the individual food distribution, consistent with the needs of each sow, guarantees a homogeneous growth of the animals as well as positive after-effects on the brood. FARROWING SECTOR The typology of cages, which are distinctive equipment in this kind of sector, must be chosen according to the zootechnical aspects and to the structural and dimensional features of shelters. The `linear' solution, for example, is suitable for the farrowing and the suckling only, while if the cage shall be used also during the weaning, a `transverse' solution is certainly recommended. In this latter type of cage sows are positioned diagonally, within it. More recently, by following the requests of animalists who have difficulties bearing the idea of animals put into cages, where they cannot behave in a natural way, a different typology has been developed, according to which, the sow remains in the cage only for some days after the delivery, and they are then allowed to perform the suckling out of the cage, since the piglets are protected by railings and escape gangways. The cage is not only distinguished by the position of the sow, but also by some peculiar components: the typology of the external railings, the barriers of the sows' stalls, the different fodder-troughs for sows and piglets, the nursery, the water and electric plants placed on the side of each cage, and also the typology of the ground. Actually, this makes often the difference, since it is crucial for the comfort of animals, for the good standard of cleanliness, but also for the reduction to a minimum of the crushing among animals. Detail of bottoms of cages with polypropylene panels on stainless steel-bases suited for piglet pens and cast-iron level surface for sows' stall, or with original "Tenderfoot" round plastic-coated panels, with nursery areas equipped with heating plates. WEANING SECTOR This is certainly the most delicate sector of the whole farming. In fact it is intended for the sheltering of particularly stressed piglets, because of both their parting from their mothers and their transportation and further allocation to a new place. As specific sector, it is present only when the farming technology provides for the use of the delivery area just for the period needed for the suckling. EQUIPMENT FOR THE WEANING SECTOR They are basically represented by raised cages or by stalls on ground. The building typologies of the different components (floor, side railings, fodder-troughs and plants) have to be developed according to the peculiar requirements of each farming. Some innovative solutions related to emerging techniques for an `early weaning' are much interesting. By arranging a restricted area with a warm floor, it is possible to guarantee very young piglets with high comfort conditions It should also be noted the new solutions regarding the outdoor weaning, within self-supporting specialized sectors. By arranging rest areas, conveniently sheltered and with a controlled temperature, it is possible to offer piglets ideal conditions, either during their rest, or when they move according to their behavioural needs and in order to eat. It is worth noting that with a lower temperature within the shelter, piglets increase their feed-intake, which is then assimilated thanks to the ideal temperature in the rest area. In this way it is therefore possible to obtain considerable energy savings, as a result of smaller warmed up volumes, together with higher preservation indexes of the components, which greatly reward the investment and the control operations. FATTENING SECTOR They house pigs weighing from 25-35 kg till the final weight, for a quite long period (6 to 7 months), during which the space and microclimatic requirements change considerably. Stabling can be made up of multiple stalls with completely or partially split ground.. Equipment for the fattening sector are basically represented by the barriers of each stall and by fodder-troughs. The barriers delimiting the stalls can be blind, totally open or with a blind base. The choice of one of these different solutions, depends on many aspects: easy visual control, transport of animals, easy accomplishment of refinements, without being obliged to carry out even more expensive and difficult brickworks, and the chance to use barriers as partition walls within double fodder-troughs by fixing them on pre-existing structures, without having to move the animals. Fodder-troughs are available either for dry feeding, with stainless steel or PVC hopper containers, suitable for a feeding-on-demand, whether meal or pellet, single-place or multi-sections, or for liquid feeding in troughs. Available fodder-troughs are made of stainless steel, of every length, single or double, with one or two channels. For the installation, you can either use the additional concrete casting or the direct bolting by means of stainless steel clamps. Back to: Home page - Products - Zootechnical equipment for pigs |

On the contrary, there are no specific problems for the employment of manure. This is certainly a consequence of its favourable contribution to the improvement of the land fertility, and also to the impossibility that fortuitous events could lead to run-off, percolation, or consistent environmental inconveniences. This is the main reason why litters are enjoying a great favour within piggeries, even if they had been abandoned mainly as a consequence of consistent management expenses, related to the employment of straw as well as of labour. The `new' piggery solutions, studied for the different farming sectors, guarantee farmers the chance to overcome these inconveniences and to resort to them even within specialized large-sized farming. In this latter type of farming, the higher costs related to the employment of litter and labour are certainly counterbalanced by appreciable savings as a result of the lower thermal requirements of the animals which, if sheltered on litter, have lower critical temperatures than the minimum ones. The oxidative processes, which take place on the litter, offer animals a warm bed, even to piglets just weaned, without being obliged to make use of any artificial heating system. Nowadays, it is possible to resort to widely proven solutions for the gestation, delivery, weaning, rearing and fattening sectors. OUTDOOR FARMING The increased sensibility of people towards animals' comfort and everything bearing the definition of `natural', together with the opportunity to go into a farming by means of quite low investments in equipment and plants, has aroused a growing interest in outdoor farming even in our country. The success of this type of farming is related to a sufficient availability of land, with good exposure and ideal drainage, together with the employment of equipment capable of assuring both the protection of animals from atmospheric agents and an easy execution of the different tending and control operations.

| Rota Guido - Facilities and equipment for zootechnics About us Services Products Exhibitions Agents News Newsletter Links Contact us info@rotaguido.it Products _________________________________________________________________ Home page > Products > Zootechnical equipment for pigs > Liquid-feeding plants The liquid-feeding plants provide for the wholly automatic preparation of the feedstuff according to the energy requirements, starting from staples or from full feed, with the possibility of using by-products with the consequent reduction in the ration costs. HYDROMIX SANITATION - Essential condition for a better food conversion As regards the sanitation, it is common knowledge that the liquid feed contributes to the microbes' growth. An intensive work of research and development led to plants whose health conditions are optimum and capable of assuring a top sanitation. To that end our feeding plants are provided with: 1. pneumatic inlet throttle valve 2. rinsing of pipes and valves 3. tank cleaner with revolving heads 4. sprayer for disinfectant solution 5. dust remover Waste-free feeding with rinsing of pipes and valves At every feeding time, all feed is distributed without waste. Then, the whole system together with valves, feed inlet and outlet, pipes, mixing tank and used-water tank are perfectly rinsed with clean water. Between two feeding times, pipes are full of clean water that will be pushed into the used-water tank and recycled for the mixing and preparation of the next rations. HYDROMIX COMPACT Computerized liquid-feeding plant with compact design that allows the contemporaneous mixing and distribution of the feed, this reducing the waiting time between two distributions. The main advantage of this plant is that many animals can be fed very quickly and with different rations. The waiting time between two feed distributions is zeroed and the time needed is halved compared to a standard plant. Feeding computer MC 99 NT The good result of the pigs' fattening stage requires a high precision at all levels, from the feed mixing to the data storage. All our liquid-feeding systems are computer-controlled and -aided so as to adjust and to optimize the feeding curve and the conversion index. Thorough cleaning of the tank The tank washing system allows a totally automatic and thorough cleaning of the mixing and used-water tanks. The revolving heads of the washing system, provided with special nozzles, comply with the available water quantity and its pressure, thus assuring a perfect cleaning even with a very small quantity of water. The water supply to the cleaning heads is assured by a separate pipe provided with a pump. In order to assure a faultless working, the tank is totally watertight and the feed intake is controlled by a pneumatic valve. The pneumatic diaphragm valves allow a high dosing precision and offer wide installation possibilities. Irrespective of the type of system and feed, our feeding valves are always reliable and long-lasting. CALLMATIC Liquid feeding with Callmatic In the computer-controlled system for the liquid feeding on request, the swill flows in the pipeline over the feeding station. When the system senses a sow that has not eaten yet, the valve opens and the set quantity of feed is poured into the trough. This process is repeated until the sow has received its ration. A sensor in the distribution tank signals when the tank is empty and then the system starts mixing a new ration. At the end of the feeding time, the tank is automatically washed. It is also possible to distribute two different feed with a second tank and a second circuit. HYDRO JET The perfect plant for the liquid feeding of the piglets after their weaning. HydroJet is a computer-controlled liquid-feeding plant for piglets provided with sensors that allows the distribution of many small rations of fresh feed many times every day, thus reducing the waste drastically. By this type of plant, the warm swill, resulting from a constant temperature adjustment by means of (multi-stage) feeding curves, is conveyed to the trough and carefully rationed by means of compressed air, without leaving waste in the mixing tank and pipes. FERMENTATION By this process, the feed can be subjected to the fermentation in a separate tank before its distribution to the piglets, so as to give the animals a more digestible feed because of its high lactic acid content, low pH and predigested starches; this allows increases in the animals' weight and more healthy piglets.

Possible solutions for the watering: SUCKER DRINKING-TROUGH: it is certainly the most common trough, with its different typologies and size. It is available with 3/8" - 1/2" - 3/4" fittings, provided with the relevant clutches that can be fixed or adjustable in height. CUP DRINKING-TROUGH: it has been conceived to reduce waste, to assure an easy watering and good health conditions. For that reason, the cup has a moderate size and, in some models, it is protected by a flap that prevents the defecation. NO-WASTE DISPENSERS: by means of this system the sewage is limited to the quantity actually produced by the animals. For that reason, they collect the watering waste, they pipe it outside through a special network to the drainage as "storm water". DOSATRON: it is a medicine dispenser, necessary to assure an accurate and safe dosing in the drinking water. Assembled in the water pipe with special by-pass, it measures out the product in the animals' water. Back to: Home page - Products - Zootechnical equipment for pigs |

The various factors which contribute to determine the environment, can be divided as follows: * climatic conditions, such as temperature, relative humidity and speed of the air; * quality of the air, as to the presence of noxious gas and dust; * non-climatic conditions, such as stalls quantity, space per head, flooring type and overall equipment. All these different factors interact with one another, thus influencing the animals' good health and their ensuing performances substantially.

|
| Rota Guido - Facilities and equipment for zootechnics About us Services Products Exhibitions Agents News Newsletter Links Contact us info@rotaguido.it Products _________________________________________________________________ Home page > Products > Environmental conditioning plants > Natural ventilation The air within each shelter can be changed by means of two main systems: natural and forced aeration. ENVIRONMENTAL MICROCLIMATE CONTROL PLANTS NATURAL VENTILATION It is guaranteed by the different density existing between the indoor-air (warmer) and the outdoor one (colder) . By means of a ridge-opening and side openings, placed at a lower level, it is possible to get a natural circulation of the air coming in through the windows and going out through the ridge-opening. Besides the different temperature existing between internal and external air, wind as well contributes to float the air around. Of course, it is important that the shelter's location and its orientation, as well as the control of its openings, guarantee a synergic exploitation of both climatic factors. In order to avoid the likely inconveniences related to this type of ventilation, lots of devices have been conceived, when proceeding to the building phase: the arrangement of deflectors near the openings, in order to reduce the negative effect of the wind, mainly in winter; the realization of doors and windows (for both windows and the small dome), easily adjustable and mechanized by means of an automatic control unit. The natural ventilation system shows some drawbacks due to the heavy influence that the external climatic conditions have on the air conditioning; as a consequence, this system is mainly suitable for shelters where the concentration of animals is not so huge and, preferably for adult animals, which are less sensitive to climatic changes. The main advantage of the natural ventilation compared to the artificial one, is related to its reliability and to its limited dependence on the employment of energy. When it is necessary to guarantee a perfect airtight, it is possible to turn to wasistass-type and false frames windows, with the addition of an artificial ventilation system.

| Rota Guido - Facilities and equipment for zootechnics About us Services Products Exhibitions Agents News Newsletter Links Contact us info@rotaguido.it Products _________________________________________________________________ Home page > Products > Environmental conditioning plants > Artificial ventilation for milch sectors ARTIFICIAL VENTILATION FOR MILCH SECTORS ( cattle - buffalo and goat-and-sheep ones) Fans in the milch cow sheds enables a reduction of the stress derived from the heat, thanks to the improved speed of the air at animals level. They can either be installed on the walls, thus influencing the volume of air change, or within the shelter itself, where they guarantee a satisfactory ventilation, both in the feeding area and in the rest one. In order to enhance the positive effects resulting from the artificial ventilation, it is necessary to adopt a cooling system for the animals. In the light of experience, the most effective solution has proved to be the wetting of the animals at intervals. The programmed alternation between the opening of the wetting-valves and the artificial ventilation system allows to cool the animals by evaporation, thus enhancing food consumption and reducing their stress considerably. It would also be advisable to consider the arrangement of air-conditioning systems in the waiting rooms, where different solutions, depending on the peculiar needs, can be adopted: simple ventilation, cooling by means of direct wetting of animals or by a cooling system which, thanks to a special fan wheel micronizing water, is able to cool the whole indoor area, thus avoiding serious stress, which would lead in a very short time to a reduction of the production.

Therefore, it is the best advisable solution, whenever the maintenance of well-distinct microclimatic conditions, and, above all, the elimination of sudden changes in the temperature are essential to assure a positive result of the farming. This is even more important for those sectors sheltering animals in their most delicate periods, that is delivery and weaning. Air change can be either obtained `under pressure' (or positive pressure, or inlet), or in depression (or negative pressure, or extraction); these two solutions have different specific aspects, which must be thoroughly considered when chosen. Air change is guaranteed by extractor fans, which create a slight depression within the shelter and cause the external air to come in through suitable deflectors-distributors. It is the most common solution, and it is usually able to meet the different sectors requirements. Actually, its optimization, as to either microclimatic conditions or limitation of the consumption of energy, requires a significant experience and attention. A correct diffusion of the air, together with a careful control of the air change are required in order to avoid over-ventilation phenomena, with ensuing energy waste which, as it has already been observed, can become very serious (they can even double the heating costs). Consequently, extraction groups have been studied for an installation on both the walls or the roof, with the chance to get the air either from the environment or from under the pits. Vent pipes with intake from both underpits and the environment grant the correct diffusion of the air even within large shelters. By adopting false ceilings made of micro-pierced fibreglass sheets model `Diff-air' and/or deflectors with adjustable and properly calibrated air vents, it is possible to provide animals with a perfectly uniform environment. The whole environmental conditioning system is duly controlled by a computer, which guarantees the correct maintenance of the microclimatic standards. This computer is provided with an alarm system which comes automatically on in case of blackout or thermal irregularities. Back to: Home page - Products - Environmental conditioning plants |

For extraction plants: * evaporating panels to be arranged on the air-intake openings; * vaporization of water in the air change passage. For pressure plants: humidification of the changed air within an adiabatic caisson and further diffusion in the environment; direct humidification of the air change by means of a specific centrifugal vaporizer, which can be placed outside or into the ventilation tunnel. COMBICOOL It is a computerized system, planned to cool, humidify, and wet pigs by means of a high-pressure vaporization. It can be used to humidify the air within the piggery, thus assuring an ideal humidity, and also reducing the formation of dust and increasing, as a consequence, the comfort of the animals. This plant can be used as well for a preliminary wash, before performing a complete cleaning. The special stainless steel spray nozzles are characterized by slow passage-intervals, but also by a high vaporization-speed which create a very light mist, that spreads homogeneously over the whole area.

This situation usually takes place in winter, within delivery and weaning sectors, and sometimes even in the gestation ones, as a consequence of the low concentration of animals. Among the different heating systems, the most widespread one is based upon the centralized production of warm water and the arrangement of radiators or fan heaters in every room, so as to adjust the heat supply independently in every single area. It should be noted the use of finned tubes or aluminium alloy Delta tubes that guarantee cleanliness, an easy installation and use flexibility as they can be used either for pre-heating the air within passages, or directly within the single rooms, where they transmit heat both by convection and by irradiation. Natural gas or LPG heating devices are also available. They do not need any air intake, and they guarantee a good return, without heat losses and at relatively moderate costs.

Closed-circuit chain belts for fixed stable, for riding grounds or also for the collecting and the formation of the heap on the floor, the strawy manure in free stables, with use of straw and production of dung. Revolving forklifts loaded by alternated belts and thrust unit in oil bath. Horizontal presses for the removal of the manure from the stable and the formation of the heap on the floor. Suitable for both fixed and free stables. The chain scrapers can be used for the cleaning of the feeding and sliding passages between the beds and the external paddocks. They consist of an engine block, four idler wheels and a closed-circuit chain that usually operates the two scraping shovels. The rigid rod scrapers consist of a draw bar operated with a constant reciprocating motion by an oleodynamic cylinder and station. The scraping unit can have straight, tipping or butterfly shovels, applied onto the central draw body by means of a coupling system on the powered rods and automatic reversal. The alternated mechanical head belt conveys the manure coming out of the stable to the collection tank through a 70-cm ditch. It consists of a rigid rod with steel stakes and blades operated by an oleodynamic unit. The recirculation under the split floor allows to pump away the suitably treated sewage from the stable to the next treatments or directly to the storage. The `Flushing' system allows to remove the manure from the passages (that shall be sloping). The previously treated sewage is flushed and recycled by storing it after a separation treatment. This solution is particularly interesting for the prewash of the waiting-milking areas. Back to: Home page - Products - Sewage disposal plants |

The more solid part of the dung that floats because of the anaerobic fermentation gases, runs over the liquid layer below until it overlfows. Recycling. Recycling by pumping the suitably treated sewage into a ditch under the split floor. Cyclic drainage. It consists in collecting the liquid manure into the pits for a while and in removing it periodically, as soon as the quantity is enough to assure the removal of the whole mass. This is important so as to avoid that the bottom of pit is cluttered with too many residues whose removal could require a direct intervention. Mechanical removal by scraper. The installation of a mechanical scraper on the bottom of the pit assures the removal of the `fresh' dung. This can be interesting in case of next energy recovery treatments and for a reduced development of noxious gas for the environment. Back to: Home page - Products - Sewage disposal plants |

It allows the mixing of all undersplit pits from a single place. External or submerged electrically powered grinding - stirring devices. They are intended for fixed plants that can be automatically operated, with programmable control boards. The whole equipment required for the lifting and the conveyance of the liquid manure to the storage and the ensuing disposal stages. The distinguishing component is the pump with its specifications of delivery, discharge head, power and its availability of accessories for the various special operations, that, if correctly dimensioned and installed in the plant, makes the plant crucially reliable since it is specially conceived to dispose of a difficult product because of the variable level of solids and the high corrosiveness on metals. Cardan joint or electrically powered pumps are available. Vertical grinding pumps with cardan joint or external electric motor on the sewage's surface. Tearing pumps for strawy and thick sewage with external and submerged motor. High-delivery flushing pumps with flow intended for installation in the washing circuit of the different passages or waiting areas. Pumps for sewaging. They are suited to convey the sewage further away, for underground fixed plants and also for self-propelled irrigators. CONVEYANCE LINES AND ACCESSORIES They consist of the PVC, hot-galvanized steel and stainless steel fittings and pipes which are crucial for the spreading and the conveyance of the sewage from the pre-tank to any ensuing treatments and to the final storage. Ladders, balconies, gangways and trestleworks allow to reach the various equipment for the treatment and the visual check of the state of storage. Hot-galvanized steel or stainless steel models are available; they can be mass-produced or upon specific design so as to be applied onto any kind of reservoir. The floodgates are essential to intercept the sewage for the collection from the reservoir. The following models are available: wall-mounted, safety and with float valve. The float valve is particularly useful so as to make the collection easier in case of external drainage well. SOLID - LIQUID SEPARATION The solid manure separation is a widespread treatment as it assures some interesting environmental advantages in the sewage disposal. The solid-liquid separation consists in removing the solid particles from the sewage, thus obtaining two contents: a substantially solid one that can be shovelled and piled up on the floor and a totally liquid one. The achievable managing and environmental advantages are significant as the liquid content is characterized by: 1. easy-to-run (less clogging problems or obstructions during the operations of removal, pumping, recovery in the piling reservoirs and sewaging spreading); 2. good fluidization that allows to use low-power equipment and to get a better mixing, in particular in large-sized reservoirs; 3. less content of nitrogen and, above all, phosphorus (bigger volumes that can be spread on cultivations); 4. significant reduction of foul smells given off during the storage and the spreading; 5. smaller volume (smaller capacity of the storing reservoirs); 6. reduction of phenomenon of the leaf stain during the covering spreading; 7. reduction of the NH3 emissions in the atmosphere thanks to the faster penetration in the surface layer of the land; 8. the resulting solid content can be used in agronomy as amender or it can be subjected, together with other products, to a composting process. Sewage separator "ROTA 2000", wholly manufactured of stainless steel, with the following specifications: Required power 1,5 Kw for the sorting drum and the pressing cylinders. Dimensions: Height: 1625 mm Width: 2040 mm Length: 1800 mm Sorting drum: Ų 630 mm Round perforation: 1,5 - 2 - 2,5 mm Roller chain operation. Pressing cylinders with special fibre-reinforced rubber. Adjustment by weight with pressure spring. Safety device for foreign bodies with overload switches. The solids are removed by the sorting drum, made of stainless steel perforated plate, that, suitably reinforced, revolves thanks to three internal cylinder which are rubber coated with Teflon side stops. The liquid content seeps in the roller through the drum holes and it collects in the lower hopper from which it reaches the storage; the solid content keeps on the external surface of the drum. Then two special pressing rollers with adjustable force press it so as to further reduce its humidity and to assure a "dry" product with a high percentage of dry matter. A special steel blade remove from the drum the thickened solid content that is carried on a conveyor, on a wagon or directly on the storage platform below. Worm-wheel separator provided with: special steel auger; stainless steel cylinder for sieve and division; exhaust cone with suspended loading and value scale; fastening frame for the installation on ground or on a movable platform; T-inlet; discharge mouth; gearmotor with star-delta switch 4 KW, 400 V / 690 V 50 Hz; distance between dividing heads 0,5/0,75/1,0 mm grey cast-iron inlet body. The ROTA separators have a high hourly production, top working reliability, exceptional performance of separation of the solid matter and they don't require any special maintenance. The possibility of installing the separator on a truck allows to use it in many farmings, by making the advantages resulting from the separation process available for the small-sized farms too. DEODORIZING AND OXYGENATION The emission of bad smells is mainly the result of the fast processes of fermentation and degradation of the most putrescent content of the sewage organic matter by means of several microorganisms. To avoid the formation of the bad smells it is therefore necessary to carry out treatments capable of speeding up the degradation of that part of the organic matter so as to get a product where only the so-called "slow" processes are active. The treated product is almost odourless as the fermentation activity is minimized and consequently any smelly compounds are given off. The sewage stabilization can be obtained either by aerobic or anaerobic treatments. The aerobic treatment with Mixer - aerator of submergible and self-aspirating type, allows the even oxygenation at the various depths - a particularly interesting feature for sewage subject to a greater sedimentation (pigs' dung) - and a little formation of aerosol during the functioning. The forced oxygenation for the nitre-denitrification process allows to get the reduction of the nitrogen content in the sewage and it is therefore very interesting for all vulnerable areas. COMPOSTING The composting is a controlled organic process of mineralization and partial humidification of the organic matter that takes place in presence of oxygen. It is different from the natural process of decomposition of the organic matter, which is represented by various natural examples (wood litter, manure), because of its greater speed and the considerable heat production. The final product (compost) has the typical physical-chemical characteristics of an amender, that can change according to the process duration (maturity degree). This solution is of great practical interest especially in those areas where the excessive load of dung per surface unit leads to the search of solutions capable of assuring a more `easy-to-manage' product, both inside and outside the farm, i.e. that can be suitably conveyable far away. Glasshouse with hot-galvanized steel framework and translucent plastic coverings provided with composting plant with reactor treatment and horizontal pit equipped with automated mixer, sliding on tracks situated on the top of the side walls of the reactor. Working windrow-grinding wagon for the composting treatment on very wide open areas. Back to: Home page - Products - Sewage disposal plants |

| Rota Guido - Facilities and equipment for zootechnics About us Services Products Exhibitions Agents News Newsletter Links Contact us info@rotaguido.it Products _________________________________________________________________ Home page > Products > Biogas plants We have been developing systems for the energy production by means of renewable energy sources for years. Biogas belongs to those energey sources. Thanks to the new regulations about self-production, to the recognition of the environmental value of the energey production from renewable sources and to a proven technology, today it is possible to produce biogas for the cogeneration of heat and electricity under advantageous conditions. The Material and Environment Research Centre of ENEL (National Electricity Board) together with the Animal Production Research Centre in Reggio Emilia, conducted, at the beginning of the Nineties, a large-scale research in the Po valley about the potential of the biogas that can be produced from the zootechnical sewage. The research revealed that the cogeneration of electricity and heat by means of biogas can lead to evident advantages in both the energy and the environmental field. The cogeneration can fit suitably in farm engineering, especially when special works are required to meet the more and more pressing normative obligations about the sewage disposal. The purpose is to promote the biogas as a renewable energy source by pointing out the normative and technological elements so as to allow a realistic and useful view of the biogas use in the modern zootechnics. ______________________________________________________________________ THE BIOLOGICAL PROCESS OF ANAEROBIC DIGESTION The anaerobic digestion is an elaborate biological process by which, in the absence of oxygen, the organic matter turns to biogas (or biological gas) consisting mainly of methane and carbon dioxide. The percentage of methane in the biogas changes according to the organic matter and to the process conditions, from a minimum of 50% to about 80%. To make the process possible it is necessary that many groups of microoganisms turn the organic matter into intermediates, mainly acetic acid, carbon dioxide and hydrogen that can be used by the methane microorganisms that end the process by producing methane. The anaerobic microorganisms have a slow growth pace and a slow reaction pace; it is therefore necessary to keep the optimum conditions of the reaction environment, as far as possible. Nevertheless, the process time is relatively long compared to other biological processes; but the advantage of this process is that the complex organic matter is turned into methane and carbon dioxide, that is to say that its final production is a renewable energy source in the form of a high-grade combustible gas. In order to allow the contemporaneous growth of all necessary microorganisms, the reaction environment, usually called digester (or anaerobic reactor) shall be able to combine the different requirements of every microbic group. For instance, the optimum pH is about 7/7.5. The optimum process temperature is around 35°C in case of mesophylic bacteria, or around 55°C in case of thermophilic bacteria. The following bacteria take part in the process: * hydrolithic bacteria that break the biodegradable macromolecules into more simple substances; * acidogenic bacteria that use the simple organic matters liberated by the hydrolithic bacteria as substrate and they produce short-chain organic acids that represent the substrate for the next bacteria; * acetogenic bacteria, obligate hydrogen producing acetogens (OPHA), that use the products of the acidogenic bacteria as substrate to produce acetate, hydrogen and carbon dioxide; * homacetogenic bacteria that synthesize the acetate starting from the carbon dioxide and the hydrogen; * methanogenic bacteria divided into two groups: a) those that produce methane and carbon dioxide starting from acetic acid, called acetoclastic bacteria; b) those that produce methane starting from carbon dioxide and hydrogen, called hydrogenotrophic bacteria. While the methane is liberated almost totally as a gas because of its little solubility in water, the carbon dioxide takes part in the balance of the carbonates in the biomass under reaction. The different bacterial species have close interactions and the products of the metabolism of some species can be used by other species as substrate or growing factors. ______________________________________________________________________ INFLUENCE OF THE QUALITY OF THE SEWAGE TO BE DISPOSED ON THE YIELD IN BIOGAS The overall sewage biodegradability analysed at the sewers collection tank can considerably change, between 60% and 80%, according to both the sewage `age' and the feeding type. An other classification of the biodegradable contents allows to distinguish between a readily biodegradable fraction (about 20% of the SSV) and a more slowly biodegradable one within the soluble content, and between an easily hydrolyzable suspended fraction and a slowly hydrolyzable one within the suspended content. Estimate of the biogas quantity that can be produced with the anaerobic fermentation starting from different remaining organic matters Type of matter Content of s.s. (%) Organic matter (% s.s.)

Low levels of transformation into biogas can be due to low temperatures, to too short hydraulic retention times (or excessive organic loads) depending on the process temperature, to bad hydrodynamic functioning of the reactor with formation of dead areas and bypass flows between the inlet and the outlet or to the presence of high-concentrated antibiotic or inhibiting substances. A futher 12,5% reduction in the organic matter that can be turned into biogas results from the sewage pretreatment operations (screening) required to remove the rough solids that could form crusts on the surface of the unmixed reactors. In order to reckon the yield of biogas it is necessary to use the stoichiometric analysis: we produce 0.35 l of methane from every g of COD under standard conditions (volume reckoned at 0°C and absolute pressure of 1 atm). Actually, this value must be rectified as a fraction quantifiable on the average of 5% of the destroyed COD is used for the cellular growth of the anaerobic biomass in charge of the process.

Since the biogas is usually measured at different temperature and pressure from the standard conditions, this value shall be moltiplied by a factor equal to (273 + T)/273, where T is the temperature in °C, and divided by a factor equal to (10.33 + P)/10.33, where P is the pressure expressed in mm of water column (follow the reverse procedure to change a measure taken under the reactor's conditions into a measure under standard conditions). But as previously mentioned, the yields of biogas are often estimated with parameters that can be defined more easily from the zootechnical point of view, and anyway related to COD, such as the organic matter in the sewage. WHY CARRY OUT THE ANAEROBIC TREATMENT OF THE SEWAGE? Within the framework of constant and extreme energy requirements and high environmental risk, today the anaerobic treatment with biogas recycling represents a very interesting system having various advantages: 1) Production of energy: the anaerobic treatment under controlled conditions leads to the degradation of the organic matter and to the production of biogas. The cogeneration of electricity and heat by means of the biogas burning is economically advantageous for both the company private consumption and the transfer to a third party which is stimulated by the new regulations about the production of energy from renewable sources. 2) Abatement of smells and polluting emissions (NH3 and CH4): the smelly substances that can result from the process (hydrogen sulphide, mercaptan, ammonia) are burnt together with the biogas. 3) Sewage stabilization: the abatement of the carbonaceous organic load resulting from the anaerobic digestion gives the sewage a sufficient stability also in the next storing periods; the slowdown in the degradation and fermentation processes leads to a reduction in the production of smelly compounds. 4) Reduction in the pathogenic charge: the anaerobic digestion in mesophily can partially reduce the pathogenic charge in the sewage, if any. But in thermophily it is possible to get the full hygienization of the sewage with the total destruction of the pathogens. ______________________________________________________________________ TYPES AND WORKING OF THE BIOGAS PLANTS The most common biogas plants can be referable to 3 different types having separate special characteristics and therefore suitable to different specific company requirements: 1) "Plug-flow"-type ditch plant The "plug-flow" plant is characterized by the greatest simplicity of installation. Main features: this anaerobic digestion process can be effectively used for both the livestock sewage treatment and the stabilization of the sludge resulting from the flotation of the agricultural-livestock sewage wastes. In case of use for the livestock sewage, it is necessary to separate in advance the rough solids that are not technically biodegradable within a reasonable time requirement, and to use the manure liquid content only in the anaerobic process. Consequently, the digester is lacking in any internal mixing devices and the ditch conformation shall be preferred. In case of flotation sludge, the digester stages will not be separated. In case of very livestock sewage wastes, the separation effect of the settleable solids from the sewage liquid content, due to the lack of agitation in the digester, will bring about an advantageous rise in the retention time of the solid content compared to the liquid content. Actually, this phenomenon will allow to remove the liquid content - with the substances readily available for the digestion - quickly from the digester and to keep in the digester the more complex molecules for long, by allowing the bacteria to break them down and to make them available for the transformation into biogas. Anyway, the solids will reach the digester outlet by means of the rising motions due to the biogas and the heating coil near the bottom of the digester, with the forward motion caused by the positioning, in the starting and final sections of the digester, of the induction and drain piping of the fresh and digested sewage. Suitable for: essentially for medium- and large-sized farmings that plan to produce energy for their direct requirements and to sell it to the network managing company in case of surplus only. Generally speaking, it is also suitable for those who shall considerably reduce the environmental impact of their zootechnical activity by means of the flotation and the biological purification of the wastes to be dumpled into surface hydric bodies. Process stages: in order to get the highest production of biogas it is necessary that the digester receives `fresh' sewage; for that reason, the sewage produced in the farming shall be removed from the livestock shelters as quick as possible. The sewage is conveyed to a collection pre-tank and then moved to the separation stage by means of a special pumping station. The mechanical separation of the liquid content from the rough solids is almost always necessary to remove from the sewage those parts that cannot be biodegraded within the expected digestion times, such as the vegetable waste and the coat that tend to come to the surface because of the biogas rising and to form a twisted cellulose crust on the sewage surface that occupies useful volume and can clog the digester in the long run. The solid fraction separated before the digester can be composted or collected and used as amender on the farmlands, while the liquid fraction, rich in organic matters, will feed the digester which has usually a rectangular cross-section with one or more parallel ditches. The anaerobic digestion of the sewage takes place in a special digestion thanks to the activity of bacteria that crush the complex molecules by producing methane, carbon dioxide, water and hydrogen sulphide. The aforesaid biological activities depend on many factors, such as: pH, temperature and residence time of the sewage in the digester. In particular, when the digestion temperature decreases it is necessary to assure a longer residence time (HRT) of the sewage in the digester. Consequently, in psychrophilic conditions, it is advisable to provide for a HRT of at least 60 days, while in mesophilic conditions it is possible to provide for a HRT of 18-20 days. According to the above conditions, the energy yield of the plant gives very good results in any season. In order to work under thermally controlled conditions, the digester walls shall be suitably insulated and the inside of the digester shall be heated and kept at the process temperature by a heat exchanger situated near the bottom and consisting of stainless steel pipes where the hot water resulting from the burning of the cogenerated biogas flows. The produced biogas is directly collected in the upper part of the digester by means of a gasometric dome covering and, if necessary, other gas-collecting pressure-switch dome coverings. The gasometric dome has a semicylindrical shape or spheric cap and it consists of three superimposed membranes made of PVC-coated polyester fibres and welded with a high-frequency electronic system. The inner membrane is used to hold the biogas in a chamber in contact with the sewage; the side edges of the intermediate one are in contact with the outside and it prevent the biogas from mix with the air between the intermediate membrane and the external one which is always blown up. The air chamber is kept under pressure by a control unit and by valves that let the air come in or out by keeping always the biogas at a pressure of 200 mm H2O, regardless of the quantity of biogas. The feeding of the burners is therefore regular and the external membrane is always taut, thus bringing about the predictable advantages as to wind, water or snow. The pressure-switch membrane covering system has also the following advantages: * it spares the separate manufacture of a gasometer; * it make the maintenance of the digester easier, as it can be easily removed; * it assures a high degree of insulation of the digester top; * it can fit existing tanks; * it allows to store the biogas at the use pressure of the burners, by sparing the installation of compressors for the gas; * it makes it possible to get a more flexible management of the biogas users thanks to the high volume contained; * it makes the dehumidification of the gas easier, especially during the colder months, by means of the condensation water in contact with the dome wall. Through a special pipe connected with the gas-collecting covering of the digester, the gas produced and recycled is conveyed to a cogeneration plant that burns the biogas and produces electricity and heat. Some heat is then reutilized to thermostat and to keep the temperature in the digester. Finally, the sewage coming out of the digester, stabilized and deodorized, will be collected in one or more storing tanks, waiting for its agronomic use. 2) Mixed up-flow cylindrical plant Main features: this anaerobic digestion process uses the manure as-it-is (liquid content + solid content); consequently, the cylindrical digestor will be provided with a helical mixing system, an external timed recirculation pump and a nozzle system on the bottom to assure the sewage movement and the `up-flow' and crust-breaking effect. The digester will be daily fed with `fresh' sewage, while the digested sewage will come out after an average residence time in the tank of about 20/25 days. The positioning of the digester below ground level can, within certain limits, replace the insulation.. Suitable for: farmings that plan to manage the sewage as sole homogeneous product and to make the best of it from the energetic and economic point of view, as this system keeps the whole solid fraction of the manure, thus increasing the biogas production. It can also be suitable for medium-sized farmings having yet biomasses to be added and digested together with the manure. This plant too has considerable environmental advantages, but it is necessary to consider that: the not-separated sewage shall be managed with suitable machinery during the pumping stage; the digester needs more electromechanical components; the plant has a higher power consumption and any additions of substances containing nitrogen involve the need of a larger land for the company balance provided for by the agronomic use plan. Up-flow plant diagram Process stages: in order to get the highest production of biogas, it is essential that the digester is fed with `fresh' sewage: for that reason, the sewage produced in the farming shall be removed from the livestock shelters as quick as possible. The sewage is conveyed to a collection, levelling, mixing and lifting pre-tank provided with mixer and grinding pump, where a modest quantity of biomass in fixed amounts can be added so as to get a pumpable mixture, with a solid content not higher than 10% that enriches the sewage for the digester with organic matter. The anaerobic digestion of sewage with modest quantities of biomasses takes place in a special digester thanks to the activity of bacteria that crush the complex molecules by producing methane, carbon dioxide, water and hydrogen sulphide. The aforesaid biological activities depend on many factors, such as: pH, temperature and residence time of the sewage in the digester. In case of Up-Flow digesters fed with a sewage-biomass mixture, it is advisable to assure residence times of at least 30-40 days and temperatures in the mesophilic and thermophilic field. It is also possible to subdivide the digestion volume into two reactors - a primary one and a secondary one - which allow more controlled methanogenic and acidogenic stages. 3) Super-flow plant for ultrathick biomasses Main features: the anaerobic digestion process uses the manure "as-it-is" (liquid content + solid content) with addition of some biomass, even in large quantities, beyond the pumpability limit. Usually, the plant has two digesters: a primary one and a secondary one. The cylindric primary digester is provided with a special horizontal-axis mixer that assures the complete mixing of the sewage and the biomass. The primary digester is non-stop fed with `fresh' sewage and biomass according to a fixed feeding plan depending on the compositions and the characteristics of the various intake complements; the digested sewage will leave the tank after an average residence time of about 20 - 30 days and it'll be conveyed to the secondary digester, where it'll be remixed so as to recover the remaining biogas. The residence time in the secondary digester is about 30 - 40 days, with an overall average residence of about 60 days. In-line digesters assure the best production of biogas in super-flow plants The good mixing is crucial in order to get high density in the digester. The mass can be heated by means of pipings fastened onto the digester walls. Suitable for: firms and zootechnical centres having lands set-aside or anyway a constant availability of biomass over the year that allows to increase considerably the biogas production and, consequently, the electric power, thus optimizing the process yield. Detail of the gas overpressure valve Digester of the gasometric dome full of biogas Process stages: in order to get the highest production of biogas, the sewage reaching the primary digester should be "fresh" and the energetic structure quality of the biomass should be entire. The produced sewage is conveyed to a collection, levelling, mixing and lifting pre-tank provided with mixer and grinding pump that makes the sewage uniform and feeds the cylindrical primary digester. A special dosing augered hopper feeds the biomass and, by means of a specific programme, loads in the digester the necessary quantity of matter to assure a good digestion process. The biogas produced in anaerobic conditions is directly collected in the upper part of the digester/s through a gasometric dome covering having a globe shape with variable volume. Through a pipe connected with the gas-collecting covering of the digesters, the produced and collected gas is balanced, cooled, dehumidified, filtered and conveyed to the cogeneration units that burn the biogas, thus producing electrical power and heat. Then, the outgoing sewage stabilized and deodorized will be collected as it is - or after separation - in one or more storing tanks, waiting for its agronomic use. Dosing caisson to automate the digester feeding operations Side mixing augers and bottom auger in the loading hopper to feed the biomass in Watertight doors allowing the access to the digester for check and/or maintenance. ______________________________________________________________________ BIOGAS PROCESSING AND USE Biogas purification The biogas processing is crucial to assure the correct working of cogenerators. Nel biogas sono presenti piccole quantitą di alcuni composti che, a causa delle loro proprietą ossidanti o di incombustibilitą, devono essere eliminati per favorire un buon processo di combustione mediante le seguenti tecniche: * Filtering with gravel or sand filters, necessary to remove the suspended solids which consist basically of organic matter, fats and any foams, before the suction of the recirculation compressors or the auxiliary compressors of the boiler and the gas engines; * Dehumidification; the temperature of the biogas coming out of the digester is at least 35°C, with a high humidity degree that causes the water vapour to condense; as a consequence, condensation traps and sumps are arranged along the piping. But to prevent the water vapour from condensing in the burning chamber it is necessary to remove the humidity drastically by means, for instance, of a condensation plant consisting of a direct-expansion refrigerator, a tube-bundle water/biogas exchanger and a coalescent filter where the steam is condensed and then removed through a manual or automatic drainage; * Desulphurization; necessary to abate the sulphur-based compounds, it can be carried out by means of chemical filters full of iron oxides that cause the precipitation of the compounds and, consequently, their extraction; by means of washing towers that execute a reverse-flow scrubbing of the gas with water and ferric oxide; or by means of biological desulphurization with the direct injection of some air - about 5-10% of the gas - in the digester, so as to allow certain bacterial strains to trigger a sulphur biological precipitation reaction. The adjustment and control systems are crucial to assure the best performance of the plant. Uses of the biogas After the necessary treatments, the biogas can have two applications: a) the production of heat only; b) the cogeneration of electrical power and heat. Burning for the only production of heat: Plants with simple technologies are used; it is enough to use a common gas heat generator consisting of a burner where the combustible material and the comburent burn by producing thermal energy and a heat exchanger where the results of the burning transfer the produced heat to a heat-transfer fluid. The biogas is treated like the natural gas, but some changes are made in the burner for the gas inlet, the combustible material/comburent mixing and the use of more resistant materials to corrosion for the heat exchanger and the burner.. Cogeneration for the contemporaneous production of electrical power and heat: This is the contemporaneous production of heat and mechanic energy immediately transformed into electric power (it's an only integrated system called `total energy system') starting from the primary energy. This energy production system allows a considerable energy saving compared to the separate production of the same quantities of heat and electrical power/mechanical energy; it is possible to exceed a 90% efficiency (30% of electrical efficiency and 60% of thermal efficiency). Two different machinery are used: o reciprocating endothermal engines o microturbines For the cogeneration with reciprocating endothermal engines we use engines with Otto cycle or modified Diesel cycle, consisting of the following components: * reciprocating endothermal engine that, besides producing the mechanical energy, produces also the thermal energy; * alternator - usually asynchronous - for the production of three-phase alternating current; * thermal regenerator consisting of a heat exchanger that recovers the heat produced by the whole system, from both the waste gas and the engine cooling circuit and the lubricating oil; * electric panel that allows to use the produced electrical power and to interface with the national electric power line. For the cogeneration with microturbines we use innovatory small-sized gas turbomachinery deriving from aeronautics and consisting of the following main components: * gas turbine and regenerator; * current generator electrical system; * heat exchanger on the exhaust gases; * operation and control system. For powers over 50 Kw, the transfer to the electric network is usually admitted for average voltage only. Cogenerators can work as follows: * parallel to the public mains: all energy produced by the continuous-running engine at maximum power is transferred to the company network connected with the external line. The magnetizing energy is totally absorbed by the network, there are no problems about peak loads and controls on the produced electric power concern solely the voltage and the frequency that shall be kept constant. A drawback of this system is that the cogenerator cuts out in case of power failure in the mains; * independent island of the electric power line: typical of places without public network, or in case of applications that can be separated from the company network - e.g. purification plants. It is necessary to have a self-excited generator with a battery-connected engine starter. The advantage of this system is that the electric power is assured also in case of blackout in the public network, but it has two drawbacks: the necessary oversizing of the cogenerator, as it has to overcome the startings of the different applications and the necessary uninterruptible power supply units in case of electronic circuits or equipment that cannot be disconnected, as the current is temporarily cut off when the system starts; * on standby: in case of regular working the cogenerator is parallel-connected with the public network, while in case of blackout the cogenerator goes on assuring the power to preferential lines, after disconnecting automatically from the network, and it supplies power according to the application's requirement; once the public network is reactivated, the system reverts to the parallel connection. ______________________________________________________________________ THE EUROPEAN SITUATION In Europe, the spread of the anaerobic digestion started in the sector of the sewage sludge stabilization and at present there are about 2,000 working digesters, about 400 biogas producing plants for the disposal of the industrial wastewater with high organic load and 500 biogas recovery plants from urban waste dumps. Besides, about 2,500 anaerobic digesters work on livestock sewage in the EU Countries, in particular in Germany (about 2,000), Denmark, Austria, Italy and Sweden. In the last year, the anaerobic digestion are becoming more common in the treatment of the organic content from the separate urban waste collection, mixed with industrial waste and livestock sewage. In Denmark, for instance, 25 centralized co-digestion plants are currently working and they dispose of about 1 million tons of livestock sewage and 325,000 t of industrial organic residues and urban waste every year. As to grants and funding for the realization of biogas plants within the European Countries, the current situation is outlined below: * Luxembourg: a subsidy equal to 60% of the investment cost and up to 0.10 EUR/kWh for the sold energy; * Belgium: no subsidy for the realization, but the base revenue for the sale of the energy is 0.07 EUR/kWh besides a bonus of 0.05 EUR per thermal kWh for the district heating, thus reaching a total maximum revenue on the sold energy of 0.12 EUR/kWh; * France: the energy transferred to the power network is paid only 0.05 EUR/kWh with consequent lack of interest in the farm sector; * Holland: at present the revenue for the sale of the energy is 0.08 EUR/kWh, but the regulations that should come into force within this year provide for incentives similar to the German ones; * Germany: this is the European Country where the anaerobic digestion has been given the most substantial boost thanks to incentives starting from a minimum of 25% of the investment cost and prices for the electric power produced from biogas assured for 20 years that are summed up in the following table: REVENUES fUp to 150 kw From 150 to 500 kw From 500 kw to 5 Mw Base 0,11 0,09 0,08 Biomass 0,06 0,06 0,06 District heating 0,02 0,02 0,02 Technological efficiency 0,02 0,02 0,02 MAXIMUM POTENTIAL REVENUE 0,21 0,19 0,18 The strong biogas production incentive focuses entirely on the energetic goals, without seeing to the environment and, in particular, to the resulting impact of nitrates on the land, also thanks to the less concentration of livestock compared to Italy. ______________________________________________________________________ THE ITALIAN SITUATION In our Country, especially in those areas with a strong inclination to zootechnics, the situation is quite different: the environment and, in particular, the nitrogen load have a substantial importance and can play an essential role in prmoting or limiting the development of the `zootechnical' biogas. Many reasons - related to both environmental issues and energy efficiency - can drive the farmer to the biogas, with the possibility to use also the biomasses resulting from set-aside surfaces, thus exploiting them with no-food cultivations such as fodder maize, grass, sorghum and the like. In 1999 a research showed that in Italy 72 biogas plants worked with livestock sewage. Five of which were centralized plants and 67 were company plants. Almost all plants are situated in the Northern regions (39 in Lombardy, 7 in Emilia-Romagna, 12 in Trentino Alto Adige). At the end of 2004, the plants were more than 100, among which approximately 70 belong to the low-cost simplified type with a plastic gasometric dome on the storing tank of the livestock sewage. Most of the plants currently working in Italy have been designed and consequently dimensioned depending on a standard of energy saving for the farming, using all the energy produced during the digestion process for the energy requirements of the farming and, usually, the relevant house applications. The installation of cogeneration units in quite spacious room makes all maintenance easier. For that reason there are cogenerators that work "in isolation", i.e. without the possibility of interfacing with the national electric network in case of energy surplus. At present, the development of new plant-engineering techniques and the biomass digestion have improved and increased the biogas production and the new energy regulations boost the production and consequently the sale of the energy from renewable sources, thus modifying the design of the new plants. Also because of the greater requirement of the farming, farmers usually choose a network-parallel connection so as to sell the energy surplus. This involves other advantages that can be easily assessed, as the sale of the energy surplus and the green certificates (having a 8-year validity in Italy) allows the owner to get yearly revenues that reduce or even halve the investment return time compared to the old plants. Biomasses Quantity: Animals' manure 180.000 t/years Agro-industrial waste 12.000.000 t/years Abattoir waste 2.000.000 t/years Sewage sludge 2-3.000.000 t/years Organic content of urban waste 9.000.000 t/years Cultivation waste 10.000.000 t SS/years Energy cultivations 230.000 ha set a side The above biomasses are currently available in our country: about 120 plants use the sewage sludge coming from the urban sewage treatment plants, 7 plants use the organc content of the urban waste and some plants use the agro-industrial waste. In Italy, the regulations and the incentives to the production of electric power from renewable sources should boost the development of biogas plants; consequently, it is necessary to strengthen and to rationalize the systems exploiting the anaerobic codigestion processes of various biomasses (livestock and agro-industrial biomasses, energy cultivations and cultivation waste, sewage sludge and organic content from separate urban waste collection). It would be better to boost also the development of anaerobic/aerobic integrated systems for the combined treatment of sewage and urban organic waste and other biomasses. The insertion of vegetable substances with a high dry-matter content in the fermenter involves technical problems that shall be specifically faced right from the design phase, as to the biomass feeding equipment and the requirement of suitable mixing and grinding systems. The use of ensilages requires a special attention, as they cause a fall in the pH value within the digester and possible corrosion of the feeding equipment. It should be noted that the installation of a biogas production plant is the same as adding a new breeding with a different type of animals: the microorganisms, with their own environmental and food requirements. The farmer shall develop a correct management suitable to the specific treatment requirements, so as to avoid inefficiency, failure and disappointment about the revenues from the investment. How to sell the energy The energy from renewable sources is sold, upon the producer's request, to the power network company at the wholesale price of the electric power transferred from the sole buyer to the supplying companies. The produced energy can be used as follows: 1) On the market: * by selling the energy to a suitable end customer or to a wholesaler by means of a bilateral contract * by selling the energy on the stock exchange 2) Sale of the produced electric power to the relevant power network company. A special agreement between Federenergia, Enel Distribuzione, GRTN, Acquirente Unico and the producers' associations has the purpose to define the contractual, economic and technical conditions for the transfer of the electric power. This agreement has one-year validity and can be renewed; the producer gives the power network company all the produced energy except for that used for private consumption. According to the agreement for renewable source energy plants with power up to 1MW, the network companies assure the following minimum prices subdivided into classes: for the first 500,000 kWh/year, 95 EUR/MWh; from 500,000 kWh to 1million kWh/year, 80 EUR/MWh; from 1 million kWh to 2 million kWh/year, 70 EUR/MWh; over 2 million kWh/year, the price of the Acquirente Unico (according to times or undifferentiated). The application of the aforesaid minimum prices assure the covering of the expenses of the small-sized plants that use renewable sources but cannot compete or take part in the market; besides, since the power collected by the network companies is paid according to the real input, the producers are not bound to submit the production plans and consequently the amounts due for the unbalance are not applied. The costs to be paid to the network company are 120 EUR/year for each plant so as to cover the administrative costs and 0,5% of the exchange value of the collected energy; if the network company manages also the contracts, it is necessary to pay 120 EUR/year for each plant and 0,5% of the exchange value of the collected energy. Green certificates The green certificates are real negotiable securities on the energy market, issued and controlled by the National Conversion Network Company (GRTN); they are used to boost the production of energy from renewable sources and to certify that the energy at issue comes from renewable source plants, such as sun, wind, water, geothermal sources and the conversion of vegetables or organic and inorganic waste into electric power. To be entitled to the certification, the plants shall be qualified by GRTN as "Renewable Energy Source Plant" (IAFR); the biogas plants using organic waste and/or vegetables to produce the electric power are therefore entitled to the IAFR qualification and to the green certificates that can be obtained according to the following procedure: * ask the GRTN for the IAFR qualification; * after getting the qualification, ask the GRTN for the issue of green certificates for the current year; * the next years, together with the application, it is necessary to submit the UTF a declaration proving the real production. To get a green certificate, it is necessary to produce at least 50,000 kWh every year, but for small-sized plants a production of electric power over 25,000 kWh/year is enough for a green certificate. The certificates are given to the qualified plant for 8 years after its coming into use; it is possible to get new certificates for another 8-year period subject to modernization and strengthening of the plant. At present, a proposal is under consideration: a 12-year period for the issue of the green certificates. The application for certificates is provided for by the law, since the national power system is bound to receive a share of energy from renewable sources equal to 2.35%, increased by a yearly 0.35% from 2004 to 2006, while the increase will be the same or higher for the next three-year periods 2007-2009 and 2010-2012. The technical condition for the transfer of the energy shall be agreed upon with the supplying agency. The price of the green certificates is variable and it is set from year to year according to the granted incentives; as to 2004, the set value was 9.739 eurocent/kWh and it applies to the whole production, for both private consumption and transfer. It should be noted that the green certificates in possession of the biogas plant owner and the energy produced by the same plant can be separately sold, as the green certificates are paid according to the whole energy production, while only the electric power sold to the national power network is paid; the national network profits by the dispatching priority as this energy is produced from renewable sources. Besides, the construction of an IAFR plant are considered as utilities, according to the legislative decree 387/03. Therefore, after getting the CPI from the Fire-prevention Department of the Ministry of the Internal Affairs, all works related to the construction and management are subject to a sole permission which is issued by the regional government or by another delegated party; furthermore, the IAFRs with a power below 3MW are considered as minor air polluting activities.
