Q-Calc: A new App for managing food waste
Many wastewater treatment plants are intrigued with the idea of increasing biogas production by accepting food waste, but are concerned with process stability. As part of a Phase I SBIR from the USDA, Quantalux is developing a software decision tool called Q-Calc that provides operators with the ability to predict the digester’s health and stability when adding food waste to manure or ...
