PROPULSION AND INNOVATION
ROTOMIX ECO 5
The ROTOMIX5 ECO powered by biomethane is totally innovative self-moved mixing trucks model at the propeller level, leaving unchanged the know and established advantages on the European market of its “milling cutter” system combined with the rotating barrel with mixing counter-auger.
Biomethane is the fuel obtained from the purification of biogas which, following appropriate chemical-physical treatments (purification or upgrading), carried out on the production site, is suitable for the subsequent compression phase for the introduction of natural gas into the tanks applied to any type of vehicle, including that of the ROTOMIX5 ECO self-moved mixing trucks.
First of all, harmful and polluting exhaust fumes due to the diesel cycle are radically reduced, with immediate and important benefits for the surrounding environment and for the welfare of animals when the machine is used in relatively closed environments.
Noise pollution also obtains a radical reduction with an evident increase in the comfort of operators and animals.
With regard to the economic aspect, we can affirm that the higher initial cost of the machine, added to an adequate biomethane purification and compression plant, is absorbed in a short time to reach a substantial advantage, especially for those numerous biogas producers with attached breeding.
For these companies, in fact, the on-site availability of the low-cost energy source, thanks to self-consumption, leads to an absolutely interesting and important cost reduction. This also anticipates the use of purified biogas which could become the natural outlet on the ecological fuel market in the future.
