In the realm of eco-friendly and resourceful manure waste treatment, the term “energy-saving compost tank” has become a buzzword among manufacturers. However, not all energy-saving claims hold up under scrutiny. True energy efficiency is a complex interplay of various factors, not just a low number on the energy consumption meter.
Let’s delve into why Bolong’s high-temperature aerobic compost tank stands out as a paragon of genuine energy efficiency.
The foundation of energy efficiency in a compost tank lies in its hydraulic system. Bolong’s vertical compost tanks are engineered with a fully hydraulic drive system, encompassing both feeding and discharging processes.
This design ensures a consistent and powerful pushing force, even under intense working conditions. The high energy transfer efficiency of this system means minimal electrical energy is wasted during operation.
In stark contrast, some competitors only incorporate hydraulic systems at the discharging end, relying on electric motors for feeding. This hybrid approach often leads to sudden current surges when facing high resistance during feeding, resulting in significant electrical energy loss and an increased risk of equipment breakdowns.
The aeration blower is the energy-hungry heart of any compost tank, accounting for over 60% of the total energy consumption.
Bolong has chosen direct-drive fans with a power of 11kW for its aeration system. These fans provide a uniform and abundant air supply, thanks to their mature technology and stable operation.
With a long lifespan, resistance to water ingress, and consistent air pressure over time, they ensure thorough material fermentation while maintaining high energy efficiency.
On the other hand, some brands opt for variable-frequency fans, marketed as energy-saving solutions. However, in real-world scenarios, when the internal resistance of the tank increases, these fans can experience a sudden spike in instantaneous power consumption, leading to an overall rise in energy usage.
Moreover, the ceramic components inside these fans have a short lifespan, requiring frequent replacements that not only increase maintenance costs but also disrupt the continuous fermentation process.
Bolong’s vertical compost tanks are equipped with an intelligent electrical control system that monitors the agitator arm’s current in real-time. When the agitator arm encounters significant resistance, the system automatically reduces the current to prevent overloading.
Conversely, when the resistance is low, the current increases automatically, optimizing energy consumption. This intelligent adjustment mechanism ensures that Bolong’s equipment operates energy-efficiently even under high-intensity workloads, eliminating unnecessary power wastage.
To truly assess the energy efficiency of a compost tank, one must consider its daily processing capacity. Let’s take a 160m³ compost tank as an example. One brand claims an energy consumption of 450 kWh/day, while Bolong’s tank consumes 600 kWh/day.
At first glance, the other brand may seem more energy-efficient. However, a closer look at the processing capacity reveals a different story.
Due to unstable fan output, the other brand’s daily feed volume can only maintain 8 hoppers. In contrast, Bolong’s stable airflow and intelligent control system enable it to continuously process 10-12 hoppers, achieving a 1.5 times higher daily processing capacity under the same volume.
Bolong’s commitment to energy efficiency extends to its heat exchange system. This independent system recovers heat from exhaust gases to warm the fresh air entering the tank. By reducing the electricity consumption required for heating, it makes the fermentation process more energy-efficient and productive.
In the competitive landscape of energy-saving compost tanks, Bolong stands out as a beacon of true energy efficiency. While other manufacturers may rely on marketing gimmicks to promote low energy consumption, Bolong has achieved a stable, efficient, and sustainable energy-saving mode through its intelligent control, hydraulic, and heat exchange systems.
By ensuring high daily processing capacity and superior organic fertilizer quality, Bolong’s high-temperature aerobic compost tank guarantees that every kilowatt-hour of electricity is scientifically utilized and continuously creates value.
