About

DVO Inc. is a dairy industry manufacturer based in Chilton, United States selling processing equipment, engineering & services.

DVO Inc. is a manufacturer of anaerobic digesters based in Chilton, Wisconsin. Its patented Two-Stage Linear Vortex mixed plug-flow digester processes manure from dairy, hog and poultry operations as well as food and industrial organic waste. The company states it has installed more than 170 digesters at over 130 sites in the United States and in other countries, and it designs each system to suit the individual farm's waste stream, herd size and layout. Its digesters produce biogas for electricity, heat, or renewable natural gas, and the company offers optional phosphorus and nitrogen/ammonia recovery systems that turn digestate into transportable fertilizer products. DVO also provides biomethane potential lab testing from its facility in Chilton and offers feasibility assessments. The company was founded on a design by engineer Stephen Dvorak, who patented the digester in 1999 and built the first unit in 2001. DVO describes itself as a family business. Its digesters are certified by Newtrient for nutrient management.
