With FlowShred, SEEPEX introduces a solids conditioning system equipped with a twin-shaft grinder. It efficiently reduces heterogeneous organic waste from food production to uniform particle sizes, making it immediately pumpable.
This compact solution integrates shredding and conveying in a single, coordinated unit, allowing food manufacturers to process organic residues reliably, safely, and with full control.
Challenge in Food Production
The food and beverage industry generates large volumes of organic by-products. Typical examples include:
- Fruit and vegetable residues
- Meat processing waste
- Fish residues
- Unusable frozen products
These materials often differ greatly in size and consistency. Large or fibrous components can block conveyors or halt pumps. FlowShred efficiently shreds these residues, preparing them consistently and reliably for subsequent pumping.
SEEPEX FlowShred – Driving Efficiency and Reliability
- Process stability and reliability: Continuous shredding and conveying via progressive cavity pump ensure full process control.
- Energy-efficient: Low drive power reduces operating costs and improves overall efficiency.
- Cost-saving and sustainable: Reduced waste volume lowers storage, transport, and disposal costs while cutting CO₂ emissions.
- High performance: Optimized material intake, high throughput, and reliable shredding even for fibrous residues.
- Robust and low-maintenance: Durable, corrosion-resistant materials and low operating speed minimize wear, downtime, and maintenance effort.
- Compact and flexible: Easily integrates into existing systems, combining shredding and pumping.
- Clean and quiet: Enclosed design reduces odors and noise.
- Maximum fermentation efficiency: Increased surface area accelerates degradation and stabilizes biogas production.
