Slurry Stores

SLURRY STORES

ALLIGATOR BAGTANKS

Dutch company Albers Alligator has been manufacturing bag tanks for more than 35 years. Tramspread has been the sole UK importer for these high-quality products for over 20 years. Our high-skilled team is very experienced in providing advice as well as carrying out long-lasting installations. These tanks represent a cost-effective and flexible solution to contain slurry in small and large volumes.  Bagtanks range in capacity from 200m³ to 7,000m³ and can be located on any soil type as only a shallow foundation is needed.  The tanks have integral hydraulic or electric stirrers, fill/empty pipes and are self-venting so relatively little management is needed.  You only take out what you put in – no added rain water, only nutrient-rich slurry.
  • Partially recessed below ground
  • Suitable for a weak subsoil
  • Fully sealed construction
  • Can be fitted with mixers
  • Made from polyester fabric with high-grade plastic coating Resistant to many kinds of fluid and UV radiation

ALLIGATOR L-TANKS

Alligator L-Tanks offer flexible storage for slurry, digestate and other liquids in sizes of up to 2000m³. These simple free-standing temporary stores are rectangular bag-type tanks, essentially resembling a ‘big pillow’. Although completely above ground their low profile means there is very little impact on the landscape. They are constructed from a long-life UV resistant material. Rigid PVC straps are used on each corner, and de-aeration point(s) are located on top of the tank.

Possible extras:

  • Protection felt
  • Valves/connections in almost any size
  • Material suitable for drinking water

WINBAG NURSE BAGS

Albers Alligator manufactures Winbag, a portable bag tank. These smaller bag tanks range from 100 cubic metres to 350 cubic metres and are typically used as overflow storage but can be used as a temporary and portable solution requiring only a level, smooth site. A reeling device called Winsystem rolls the whole bag on to a trailer and will unreel it in another location.

The ability to take these bags almost anywhere on the farm, unreel and fill, offers a solution for difficult to reach fields. The bags are watertight so can be remotely situated, tanker filled, or pumped to, and emptied when the slurry is needed.

  • Portable nurse bag
  • Easily reeled in/out and moved
  • Can be used on almost any level surface
  • Flexible and affordable storage
  • Fully-sealed one-piece storage
  • Almost any ports/valves available on request

BUTEK TANKS

Butek temporary slurry stores are Made in Britain and have capacities of 280m³, 500m³, 800m³, 1100m³ and 1250m³. They are quick to install and consist of a steel tank with a durable Landflex Elvaloy lining suitable for slurry.

The steel is treated with Magnelis, a metallic zing coating said to last three times as long as standard galvanised steel, and then powder coated for a durable maintenance-free finish. Tanks can be supplied in any RAL colour, although dark green is standard, and have a 10-year warranty (coastal area exclusions apply) with a longer anticipated lifespan than galvanised steel tanks.

As standard tanks are equipped with a single 6” through-the-wall filling/emptying port, but they can be specified with as many ports as required, including 5” up and over the wall types. Multiple ports allow an umbilical slurry application system to operate, simultaneously drawing-out slurry whilst recirculating back into the tank.

Installation is straightforward, without any need to pour a concrete base. Instead, the tank uses a compacted earth base covered with a Geotech membrane and a ring of concrete slabs which are supplied as part of the package along with drawings and installation advice.

To minimise odour and emissions the tanks can be covered with either a floating Hexa-Cover or a fixed cover. The slurry or digestate can be mixed using a hydraulically-driven mixer positioned over the side or agitated using a pump.

ALLIGATOR LAGOON LINERS

Albers Alligator has over 40 years of experience with slurry lagoons. It applies the same considerable degree of expertise and high-standards used for its bag tanks to its lagoon liners. The Alligator slurry lagoon uses a PP foil which is resistant to many liquid types and the effects of UV radiation for a long service life. The design and installation are part of the package.

  • No costly foundations required
  • Suitable for all kinds of mixed slurry/digestate
  • Available in sizes of up to 100,000m³
  • Affordable solution to slurry storage

As standard the Alligator lagoon comes complete with:

As an option the lagoon can be covered by a floating cover made from a special fabric, which remains tensioned, or Hexa-Cover floating elements.
