Zusammenfassung:A waste separation system and a method of separating liquid waste from solid waste employ an animal waste conveyor comprising an endless conveyor belt extending around upper and lower conveyor rollers and having an upwardly concave longitudinally inclined upper run which, in transverse cross-section, has a lowermost portion forming a liquid drainage channel extending longitudinally of the upper run and lateral portions diverging laterally and upwardly from the liquid drainage channel. The solid and liquid waste is discharged onto the upper run, so that the liquid waste flows under gravity into and along the liquid drainage channel to be discharged and collected in the vicinity of the lower end of the conveyor, and the conveyor is intermittently driven to discharge the solid waste material from the conveyor to be separately collected.
