The ReCip® Technology has been used to treat high
strength waste streams for several years. One of the
great benefits of the ReCip® is its versatility
and flexibility to remediate most known contaminants.
The ReCip® can be specifically designed to remediate
known nutrients at targeted removal rates and then sized
to meet the daily volume measured in gallons per day.
The Swine Industry, along with the general public, has
been seeking a solution to treat swine waste rather
than the using the existing and conventional lagoon
system. The ReCip® is being used in two swine
projects to document the ReCip®'s operating
performance (economics & nutrient reductions) under
two different scenarios. The documented results
will determine the potential use of the ReCip® by
swine farmers across the US.
The most recently installed system is located in North
Carolina and treats the wastewater directly from 1,876
finishing swine. The project is part of the Smithfield
Food, Premium Standard Farms, and NC Attorney General
Initiative to find an "Environmentally Superior
Technology" to update or upgrade the approved treatment
methods using lagoon free alternative technologies.
The ReCip is being evaluated by NC State University
over 12 months and performance information will be published
as it is released.
The first system installed to treat swine waste is located
in Alabama and has been in operation for several years.
The ReCip® system is treating solids and wastewater
directly from an existing lagoon serving eight finishing
barns. The ReCip® system has significantly
reduced swine odor while improving swine mortality rates.
The performance information about this system will be
published when released to the general public.
