The biogas plant can be run evenly. Optimal conditions for stable and constant gas yields.ENGINEERED TO WORKvogelsang.infoThe performance of many installed solid matter feeders is limited. As a result, the input quantity cannot be increased when the system is expanded or if you decide to change to alternative cosubstrates. With up to 25 tons of cosubstrates fed in per hour, the EnergyJet offers major advantages when it comes to repowering the solid matter feeding. In addition, it can also cope with difficult alternative, In many biogas plants, using a RotaCut wet macerator with an integrated heavy material separator can increase economic efficiency. Efficient cosubstrate disinte-gration with RotaCut RCQpro provides clear advantages, especially when many long-fibered input materials such as dung and grass silage are used: more cost-effective cosubstrates like grass silage and dung, or even sugar beet or potato, feeding them into the digester securely and in a well mashed form.The EnergyJet CS can be combined with many well-known systems. Thanks to its compact design, small height and easy solid matter feeding via screw conveyor, the unit can also be easily retrofitted.EnergyJet CS and BIOGASmaxRotaCut RCQpro and BIOGASmax• The organic suspension‘s viscosity is reduced• Floating or settling layers and sedi- ments are reduced• The power consumption and running times for pumps and mixers are reduced• At the same time, it separates out foreign matter or reduces coarse matter to a manageable level• Operational safety increases because blockages and clogging are avoidedWith its compact design and quicker access for service and maintenance, RotaCut RCQpro is easy to retrofit in a variety of locations.

Simply turn over – and discover more about innovations in the world of spreading technology ...4EnergyJet® CS compactRotaCut® RCQproRotaCut RCQpro cutter – the new cutter for the most challenging requirementsEfficient shredding of course and fibrous matter in liquid media with effective pro-tection from foreign matter and heavy material – all the new RotaCut units in the RCQpro series offer this. They are the ideal solution for reliably and cost-effec-tively conditioning media with a high fiber content, such as organic suspen-sions, while still maintaining excellent ease of maintenance and operation. Thanks to their robust design, they can also be used on the discharge side (up to 4 bar is possible). With the XL design, large amounts of heavy matter in the medium can be reliably separated out. EnergyJet CS solid matter feeder – the new compact variantAt Agritechnica, Vogelsang is presentinga new variant of its innovative solid matter feeder: EnergyJet Closed System (CS). If solid matter is transferred to the EnergyJet via a screw, the EJ40-CS is the ideal variant. A connector on the side for the solid matter screw replaces the old fixture for solid matter transfer. Even difficult cosubstrates such as grass or dung can be easily fed into the EnergyJet without any problem. All RotaCut RCQpro units are equipped with Automatic Cut Control (ACC®) as standard. Easy to maintain and convenientThe exterior ACC lobe of the RCQpro doesnot have to be dismounted when replacingcutting components. This makes it quick and easy to change parts. In addition, all RCQpro types are equipped with a car-tridge mechanical seal. This makes it easier to replace the seal, prevents installation errors, saves time and improves safety. The ACC plus is available for the RCQ-pro. This provides extra cost-savings for maintenance and inspection by monitor-ing the condition of the cutting blades Transferring solid matter from the side also makes it possible to keep the Energy-Jet CS very compact with a minimum height. This makes it easy to integrate the EJ40-CS in a plant.Thanks to its large free passage and solid design, the EnergyJet Closed System is resistant to foreign matter and it can withstand abrasive media for a long time. Like other EnergyJet units, the EJ40-CS also manages entry rates of up to 25 tons of solid matter per hour (corn silage).Function: separating, sealing, mashingSupported by bearings on both sides, the slowly rotating stainless-steel screw convey the cosubstrates continuously into the separation part of the EnergyJet. Here, the excess moisture is removed from wet solid matter. This way, a safe plug formation, and thus seal, is formed for the EJ40-CS – even at high back pressures. Even with fluctuations in dry matter content levels and varying char-acteristics of the cosubstrates, EJ40-CS generates an unbreakable plug against the pipe on the other side of the solid matter feeder. A liquid suspension (e.g. liquid manure, recirculated material) flows in continuously on this other side. The rotating screw blades and the flow of liquid directed centrally onto the plug breaks up the solid matter. The liquid suspension and cosubstrates combine to form a mashed suspension. Advantages of RCQpro• Sturdy design for reliable macera- tion of fibrous and coarse matter• Foreign matter protection for all downstream components• With optional condition monitoring (ACC plus)• Smaller mixer and pump perfor- mance necessary thanks to more homogeneous and flowable suspen- sions and fluids • Faster and easier changing of wear partsduring live operation, so there is no need to interrupt operations to open the unit. An external display informs the operator of the condition of the cutting blades at all times. In addition, this important information can be displayed in graph form in the control – e.g. on the central system moni-toring. ACC plus informs you in good time before the cutting blades have to be replaced. This makes it easy to plan your spare parts order and maintenance schedule.
