From Floor to Cage: Handling 10 Tons of Chicken Manure a Day – A No-Smell, No-Flies Circular Solution

Project Overview

Location: Candelaria, Quezon, Philippines
Project Type: Broiler Farm Upgrade
Partnership Duration: 2023 – Present
Key Equipment: Chain-Type Cage System, EC Inverter Fans, 110m³ Energy-Saving Fermentation Tank, Rotary Dryer
Processing Capacity: 8–10 Tons of Fresh Manure per Day.

Background

As the poultry industry in the Philippines continues to modernize and scale up, more farms are transitioning from traditional floor housing to efficient cage systems. However, higher bird density brings a new challenge: how to effectively manage large volumes of chicken manure without causing environmental pollution, fly infestations, or odor issues.

A large-scale broiler farm in Quezon Province faced this exact challenge. After upgrading, each house now holds over 100,000 birds—up from 45,000 in the floor system—generating 8–10 tons of fresh manure daily. The farm owner needed a complete solution to handle the manure efficiently while turning it into valuable resources, creating an environmentally sustainable modern farm.

Our Solution

Retech provided a complete solution covering both the housing system and manure management, including equipment supply, installation guidance, and technical support. The solution was divided into two core components:

1. Modern Cage System

The farm’s original floor housing system had issues with low space utilization, disease control, and difficult manure collection. We designed and installed the Retech Chain-Type Cage System, delivering the following upgrades:

• Higher Bird Density: Increased capacity from 45,000 to over 100,000 birds per house – doubling space utilization
• Automated Management: Equipped with automatic feeding, automatic drinking, and automatic manure removal systems – significantly reducing labor costs
• Improved Ventilation: Installed EC inverter fans that automatically adjust airflow based on temperature and humidity, enhancing bird health and living conditions

2. Manure Resource Recovery System

To handle the large volume of fresh manure generated daily, we provided a combined “Fermentation Tank + Rotary Dryer” system, creating a complete resource recovery loop.

a. 110m³ Energy-Saving Fermentation Tank

• Processes 8–10 tons of fresh manure daily (moisture content 70%–80%)
• Uses advanced microbial fermentation technology to complete the process within 24 hours
• Energy Efficiency: Consumes 35% less electricity compared to conventional fermentation tanks
• Output: Produces dry, odorless, fly-free organic fertilizer, ready for direct use on farmland or further processing

• Further dries fermented manure or fresh manure into dry powder
• The dried manure powder can be sold as organic fertilizer or used as fuel for the burner
• Creates a circular system: dried manure serves as fuel to generate heat, which powers the dryer – achieving energy self-sufficiency

Project Results

After more than two years of operation, the farm has achieved remarkable results:
