Cranswick Poultry chooses DecaPress for superior wastewater capacity

Cranswick’s old centrifuge system had become mechanically unreliable, difficult to maintain and was no longer able to keep up with the site’s increasing production capacity requirements.
The site which can handle over a million birds per week was originally built in 2019 and expanded at a cost of over £78 million.
The new centrifuge installation handles up to 10 t/hr of the sludge generated from the waste water treatment at site which ensures that the numbers of tankers and cost of haulage for disposal from site are kept to a minimum and the water treatment plant ensures a cleaned water for discharge to the local sewage treatment plant.
The centrifuge system was fitted with a fully automated stainless steel system control panel with auto wash facility, support stand, pipework, valves, flowmeters and a stainless steel slide valve to discharge the dewatered cake solids into trailers mounted below the unit.
Cranswick Poultry’s Engineering manager at the site, Mr Callum Boags commented: “The install was carried out to a very high standard and any issue I have had since the install has been delt with swiftly and with no issues. I can’t speak highly enough of MSE Hiller and the people I have come across so far. The quality of the Hiller machine is Very, very good!”
