Collection, Dewatering, Recovery

The equipment, the process and the work in the field.

The press at work

Industrial screw press running on sargassum: liquid drains through the screen as the material moves through.
Dewatered sargassum biomass leaving the press at the discharge end.
The same press running on corn silage. The approach works across wet biomass, not only seaweed.
