Microferm: small is beautifulThe Microferm concept from HoSt facilitates the smallscalebiological treatment of slurry and its conversionto sustainable energy. The strength of its small-scaledesign lies in its simplicity, easy adaptability, low risk andmanageable levels of investment.Microferm: more from slurryThe Microferm concept has been developed for farmsthat wish to process their own slurry. The slurry isdigested anaerobically and converted to electricityand useable heat. Depending on the size of the business,the farm is able to supply its own energy needsin full, and even supply green energy to the nationalpower grid. The Microferm is extremely suitable foragricultural businesses where sufficient quantities ofslurry are produced, such as on cattle farms, pig farmsand calf-fattening units.The clear benefits ofthe HoSt Microferm concept• High-yield digester• Very low energy consumption(electricity and warmth)• Small-scale design• Rapid installation• Robust and reliableAdvantages of slurry digestion• Self-sufficient in energy• Cost-benefits as electricity supplier• High quality slurry output• Low-emissions business operations• Not reliant on imported feedstock
