Developed based on a modular design, the Porcus air scrubber can sustainably reduce emissions from pig housing so that you can continue your pig production successfully for the long term. The customer must provide a pressure corridor, which connects the Porcus air scrubber with the barn. Fans press the exhaust air into this corridor and then into the scrubber itself, where the exhaust air is cleaned of dust, ammonia and odours.
Designed to match the scrubber’s capacity, a technical room comes with the air scrubber and is pre-installed by the manufacturer. The arrangement of the pH value sensor, the conductivity sensor, the meters for measuring fresh water and desludge water quantities, pumps, piping and the control box allows for a good overview, which also makes maintenance easier.
Porcus comes in two versions - biological version and chemical version. The biological version helps to reduce odour emissions, and removes ammonia and dust, while the chemical version requires the use of sulfuric acid, which will lower the pH value and then bind the nitrogen as ammonium sulfate. The chemical version requires less process water, but it must be stored separately.
