The concentrated nutrients can also be dried or pelletized for easy storage or transport out of the watershed. The IMMS does not use polymers and chemical flocculants to remove solids from manure instead, it relies on a patented ultrafiltration system that can reliably remove more than 99 percent of the suspended solids and phosphorus. The IMMS will process 20,000 gallons of manure per day, effectively harvesting energy through biogas generation, concentrating nutrients for more targeted crop use, and reclaiming clean water for farm use and surface water discharge.ĭigested Organic’s IMMS is a fully integrated and scalable manure treatment system – combining a high efficiency/low residence time anaerobic digester with a highly automated ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis system that concentrates nutrients into 30 percent of the original manure volume while recovering about 70 percent of the original volume as clean water suitable for drinking water for the animals, washing and flushing on the farm, or direct discharge to local waterways (with the appropriate DNR permit). July 28, 2015, Ann Arbor, MI – Digested Organics LLC has begun construction on its first fully Integrated Manure Management System (IMMSTM) at the Majestic Meadows Dairy in Sheboygan Falls, WI.
