The Pro-Act manure separator, produced by the Vincent Corporation of Florida, is a screw press that divides the animal waste into two streams: the manure slurry and the solids. The liquid is then drained into a waste lagoon or storage tank while the dry solids can be put to a variety of uses, including compost, fertilizer and animal bedding. The separator and the microbial treatment system, when working together, enhance each other’s benefits and create an even more efficient means of manure management.

Designed for many farm types
The Pro-Act separator is designed to work on many farm types: dairy or hog, flush or scrape barns. In flush barns, Pro-Act's microbial mix has already gone to work reducing the odor and viscosity of the water and solids before the manure slurry reaches the separator. This makes the separator work more efficiently and puts less wear and tear on the equipment. With scrape barns, the manure is thicker. Separating the solids out of the manure stream results in a lagoon or storage tank that is less stressed and provides an environment for Pro-Act’s treatment to work even better.

Better fertilizer
Solids separation is an excellent way to extract the nutrient-rich solids for use in other applications such as fertilizer or composting. The fertilizer value of Pro-Act treated manure is much better than untreated, and taking out recalcitrant solids with a separator further enhances the manure treatment. So the separation and biological treatment together decreases or even eliminates the amount of nitrogen fertilizer the farms need to purchase.
