E2950 Manure Enricher
GEA ProManure E2950 Manure Enricher - Produce your own fertilizer while reducing emissions. GEA presents a revolutionary environmentally friendly manure processing solution.
Liquid manure – known as slurry – can greatly contribute to a more sustainable farming, but how? Livestock slurry is a natural fertilizer providing nutrients for plants and organic matter which improve soil health and enable better growth. However, the nitrogen content is too low for the optimum fertilisation of most crops, and the loss of nitrogen can be significant. This increases the need for chemical fertilizers, and the lost nitrogen also ends up as pollution in the form of ammonia. Manure management is also one of the major sources of greenhouse gas emissions in agriculture, particularly in the form of methane.
Produce your own fertilizer while reducing emissions
GEA’s ProManure E2950 manure enricher enables local production of fertilizer using only livestock slurry, air and electricity, – dramatically reducing harmful emissions and improving yield at the same time.
The manure enricher unit is a revolutionary piece of technology that is installed locally on a farm or biogas plant, to turn liquid manure or biogas digestate into sustainable fertilizer using just air and electricity. It is a container-based solution and is easily implemented into the infrastructure. Liquid manure is treated continuously prior to storage for application at the right time.
This technology adds nitrogen from the air into slurry, which increases the nitrogen content. The process prevents the loss of ammonia and eliminates methane emissions, making it a real solution helping to achieve climate target commitments on an industrial scale.
The end-product is a nitrogen enriched organic fertilizer, which we call NEO. It has the same characteristics as normal slurry but contains more nitrogen and releases significantly less emissions. It can still be spread using existing farm equipment, enabling farmers to improve their own food production, reduce the need for chemical fertilizers, and make farming more circular.

GEA Insights
Modern herd management: a smarter way to farm
In a dairy herd, every cow has her own story – and modern herd management tools help tell it. By tracking health, habits and needs, these smart systems let farmers care better, work smarter and keep milk flowing. It's the secret behind happy herds and successful, more sustainable dairy farming.
Feeding the future: The power of freeze-drying innovation
Waste reduction is important to us at GEA, and by harnessing the power of freeze drying technology, we can transform surplus food into valuable, long-lasting products – helping to reduce waste, extend shelf life and build a more resilient food supply for generations to come.
