METHOD FOR SEPARATING OF SYNANTHROPIC FLIES FROM SUBSTRATE Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC A01K67/00 

FIELD: agriculture, in particular, processing of animal wastes using biological processes.

SUBSTANCE: method involves placing processed substrate with synanthropic fly larvae living thereon into reservoir by means of belt conveyor; setting velocity of belt conveyor so as to provide migration of larvae from substrate thickness into reservoir, onto its surface, said velocity depending on thickness of substrate layer: the greater is thickness of substrate layer , the lower is the velocity, and larvae concentration in upper part of reservoir being provided by making width of reservoir lower part exceeding width of its upper part; upon filling of reservoir, stopping feeding of substrate and removing larvae from upper part of reservoir by means of conveyor equipped with rectangular plates; removing substrate remained in reservoir by means of screw-type conveyor.

EFFECT: reduced metal usage, simplified construction of apparatus, decreased manufacture costs, reduced time for separation of synanthropic fly larvae from substrate and increased percentage of separated fly larvae from substrate.
