Product catalog summary

Introduction
Porcus is an air scrubber designed by Big Dutchman to effectively reduce emissions from pig housing. It separates ammonia, dust, and odors from the air, ensuring sustainable pig production.

How Porcus Works
The system connects to the barn via a pressure corridor, where fans direct exhaust air into the scrubber. The air passes through a horizontal filter bed sprayed with water, cleaning it of contaminants. Process water is recirculated and monitored for nitrogen content and pH levels, with automatic controls ensuring optimal operation.

Advantages

Customizable planning with expert guidance.
Proven air scrubbing technology.
Ready-to-connect complete units.
Available in various sizes and modular designs.
High separation rates and easy assembly.
Low installation requirements and reliable operation.
Fully automatic process control and cost-efficient operation.
Suitable for retrofitting.

Biological and Chemical Versions
Porcus can operate as either a biological or chemical scrubber. The biological version uses bacteria to convert ammonia into ammonium nitrate, while the chemical version uses sulfuric acid to bind nitrogen as ammonium sulfate. Separation rates vary between the two versions, with the chemical scrubber generally achieving higher ammonia separation.

Technical Features
The modular design includes a technical room with pre-installed components for easy maintenance. An internet-accessible data logging system provides real-time monitoring and cloud storage for evaluations.

Conclusion
Porcus offers a sustainable solution for reducing emissions in pig housing, backed by Big Dutchman's expertise in livestock production equipment. The system is designed for easy installation and operation, making it a practical choice for modern pig farming.
