Manpas Technology Step by Step
From Biomass to a Usable Material
Manpas is a heat-treatment technology for processing organic materials. During the process, the material is moved through controlled treatment stages while its temperature is raised and maintained for a defined period of time.
The technology can be adapted to different types of biomass and scaled according to the volume of material to be processed and the intended end use.
01
Material enters the process
Biomass is fed into the Manpas silo. The system is dimensioned according to the material and required capacity.
→ Material in
02
The material heats up in the silo
The material naturally heats to approximately 60–70 °C before the next treatment stage.
60–70 °C | approx. 1–2 days
03
Temperature is raised in the screw conveyor
The material moves continuously through the heated screw conveyor.
Approx. 80–85 °C
04
Hygienisation is ensured
The required treatment temperature and time are maintained as part of the controlled process.
≥ 70 °C | ≥ 60 min
05
The material is ready for further use
The heat-treated biomass can be directed to suitable further uses depending on the feedstock and applicable requirements.
→ Bedding | soil improvement | growing media
One Process, Scaled to Your Needs
The same process principle is used across Manpas systems. Capacity is scaled according to the material volume and application.
MP1000
Approx. 1,000 L/day
MP2000
Approx. 2,000 L/day
Custom-sized systems
Scaled according to the required capacity and process configuration.
| System model | Manpas 1000 | Manpas 2000 | CUSTOM-DESIGNED |
|---|---|---|---|
| Capacity, L/day | 1,000 | 2,000 |
Scaled to meet specific requirements
For applications where the process integration, material volume or other site-specific requirements call for a different system configuration. |
| Capacity, m³/year | 300–400 m³ | 600–800 m³ | |
| Silo volume | 3 m³ | 4 m³ | |
| Silo dimensions (width × depth) | 140 × 140 cm | 160 × 160 cm | |
| Total silo height | 220 cm | 240 cm | |
| Heated screw conveyor length | 5 m | 6 m | |
| Heated screw conveyor temperature | 90 °C | 90 °C | |
| Heating system | Water circulation | Water circulation | |
| Drying belt dimensions | 50 × 600 cm | 50 × 700 cm |
System Selection Starts with the Material
The right configuration depends on the material being processed, its volume and the intended end use.
Before defining the system, we assess factors such as:
material characteristics and moisture
daily material volume
current handling method
required capacity
intended end use
site-specific process requirements
The system is then dimensioned according to these requirements.
