LCA applied to elucidate opportunities for biogas from wastewaters in Colombia
Biogas produced in municipal and industrial wastewater treatment facilities (BWWF) is a resource wasted in several socio-economic contexts. BWWF-based projects are compared against energy projects using conventional electricity or natural gas (NG), following strict economic considerations that usually tip the balance in favour of conventional energy supply. This is because the economic gain ...

St. Cloud Duel Fuel Engine, USA - Case Study
In 2016, St. Cloud Wastewater Treatment Facility selected GE Jenbacher as the dual fuel engine of choice for their new renewable energy plant. For most cities, wastewater and drinking water treatment plants are major energy hogs so when St. Cloud was looking for ways to reduce its utility bills, it made sense to look at the sprawling wastewater treatment plant on the city’s south side. The ...

The Future of Biogas: Why Biogas Analyzers are Key to Advancements in Renewable Energy
As the world continues to shift towards sustainable energy sources, biogas is emerging as a valuable and versatile renewable energy option. Biogas is produced through the decomposition of organic matter, such as agricultural waste and sewage, and can be used to generate electricity, heat, and fuel. However, to get the most out of this resource, it is crucial to understand and monitor the quality ...

Novel anaerobic digestion process with sludge ozonation for economically feasible power production from biogas
A novel process scheme was developed to achieve economically feasible energy recovery from anaerobic digestion. The new process scheme employs a hybrid configuration of mesophilic and thermophilic anaerobic digestion with sludge ozonation: the ozonated sludge is first degraded in a thermophilic digester and then further degraded in a mesophilic digester. In small-scale pilot experiments of the ...

The elimination of siloxanes from the biogas of a wastewater treatment plant by means of an adsorption process
Siloxanes present in the biogas produced during anaerobic digestion in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) can damage the mechanism of cogeneration heat engines and obstruct the process of energy valorization. The objective of this research is to detect the presence of siloxanes in the biogas and evaluate a procedure for their elimination. A breakthrough curve of a synthetic ...

Siloxane Removal
SILOXANS IN BIOGAS. ORIGIN, EFFECTS AND TREATMENTS Biogas from landfills, digestion and wastewater treatment plants (wwtp) is a valuable material for the production of energy, biofuels and the production of chemical products such as hydrogen and methanol. As it is a source of renewable energy, it is inexhaustible, clean and can be used as planned. Their use generates less environmental ...

Power Outages, Extreme Weather, & Microgrids Explained
Recent wildfires in California and bomb cyclones in New England have led to massive power outages. Here are 10 answers to frequently asked questions about why outages occur, how power lines start wildfires, and alternatives to our aging and unreliable power grid. How do power grids work? Utilities generate electricity at power plants, and then distribute it to our homes and businesses over ...

Biogas Treatment in WWTP
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are facilities that consume large amounts of energy (thermal and electrical), as a result of their operation, they produce large amounts of sludge. The anaerobic digestion of these sludges from wastewater treatment produces biogas, which, due to its concentration in methane (CH 4 ), constitutes a biofuel that can be used for energy production. The best ...
