DebrisCatcher

What it is

DebrisCatcher protects biogas process equipment against stones, metal parts and other heavy contaminants. It is a compact separator for plant operators who need to reduce the risk of clogged valves and damage to downstream pumps.

How it works

The flow-optimized housing uses gravity for settling; slowly rotating steel elements direct remaining coarse contaminants into the separation zone without direct contact with the screen. An optional DRS system can discharge collected foreign objects while the machine is running.

Where it is used

Biogas plants handling manure, compost and prepared crop silage; protection before pumps and fittings.

Key advantages

• Active heavy-material separation with low-speed, non-contact operation.
• Less exposure of downstream equipment to stones and metal.
• Optional DRS removal system for continued operation.

Technical characteristics

The brochure reports throughput up to 150 m³/h at 13% dry matter under the described conditions. Performance for other substrates must be checked during selection.
