GTI’s cover for the town of Creston lasts 20 years - case study
The Town of Creston, British Columbia, Canada, operates an anaerobic digester to treat brewery wastewater. Biogas is used to fuel a boiler for process heating. The system was approaching 20 years old and the cover, originally built by GTI, required replacement. The anaerobic digester had to remain in service while the covers were changed. The cover was replaced with an updated GTI gas collection ...

Increased biogas production in a wastewater treatment plant by anaerobic co-digestion of fruit and vegetable waste and sewer sludge – A full scale study
Anaerobic digestion is a well established technology for the reduction of organic matter and stabilization of wastewater. Biogas, a mixture of methane and carbon dioxide, is produced as a useful by-product of the process. Current solid waste management at the city of Prince George is focused on disposal of waste and not on energy recovery. Co-digestion of fresh fruit and vegetable waste with ...

Modelling of anaerobic digester biogas production: case study of a pilot project in Morocco
An anaerobic digestion pilot system was implemented in June 2010 in the Moroccan village of Dayet Ifrah. The input material consists of toilet wastewater and cattle manure. Biogas is produced under anaerobic conditions. It is used for heating and cooking. This biogas system could be an useful sanitation technology due to its ability to treat wastewater. The biogas system was monitored over 86 ...

GTI and the City of Tulare celebrate 25 years of converting waste to energy - case study
Energy conservation has always been extremely important to both the City of Tulare and the wastewater treatment facility. Since biogas can be used as fuel to generate electricity, the city wanted a means to reliably collect biogas from the BVF® reactor to recover the energy while also controlling odors and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. To address the City of Tulare’s needs, ...

Celdar Technology - N Compounds Speciation Removal in Biogas Wastewater - Case Study
To approach a complex wastewater treatment plant, the customer asked us to evaluate the ELECTROCOAGULATION SYSTEM for the removal of NITROGEN COMPOUNDS and to be able to drain the treated water into the sewer system. Another option required was the ZERO LIQUID DISCHARGE and therefore the possibility of water recycling with the least amount of consumption possible. This option is possible using an ...

St. Cloud Wastewater Install Biogas and Natural Gas Engine, USA - Case Study
In 2016, St. Cloud Wastewater Treatment Facility selected Jenbacheras the blended biogas and natural gas 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 ...

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 ...

Case study - Grand Junction Sets the Pace with Colorado’s First Biogas-to-Vehicle Fuel Project at the Persigo Wastewater Plant
The first biogas-to-vehicle fuel project in Colorado converts wastewater-derived biogas mto renewable natural gas (RNG) to fuel city and county fleet vehicles Summary: The Per si go wastewater treatment plant in Grand Junction, Colorado, a city of about 60,000, processes upwards of 8.2 million gallons per day of wastewater in two anaerobic digestion tanks (primary and secondary). The facility ...

Biogas Purification Project of Bene-Sino Corperition - Case Study
Bio-natural gas is green, low-carbon, clean and renewable natural gas produced by anaerobic fermentation, purification and purification of various urban and rural organic wastes such as crop straw, livestock and poultry manure, food waste, agricultural and sideline product processing wastewater, etc. The biogas residue produced in the oxygen fermentation process can produce organic fertilizer. ...

No Pipeline for Renewable Natural Gas Projects? No problem. Use Virtual Pipeline Technology
On site biogas production Biogas can be produced from various organic resources of which the most common are agricultural waste, municipal waste, landfills, and wastewater treatment facilities. But biogas upgrading is also very much applicable in the (food & beverage) industry. Through biogas upgrading, trace impurities and carbon dioxide (CO2) in raw biogas are separated from methane (CH4) ...

Project - Installation of a biogas desulphurisation unit at a WWTP, Chania WWTP (Greece)
Bioconservacion's technology was the successful bidder in the public tender launched in 2015 for the design, execution and construction of a biogas desulfurization unit at the wastewater treatment plant in Chania, Greece. With a population of more than 100,000, Chania is the second largest municipality on the Greek island of Crete. Its wastewater treatment plant consists of primary and secondary ...

The Benefits of Biogas Conditioning
Abstract Anaerobic digestion is quickly becoming the choice technology for sewage sludge treatment at wastewater treatment plants, as the methane rich biogas produced is a valuable resource which can be used to generate electricity. In the oxygen restricted environment, a natural by-product of the anaerobic process is hydrogen sulfide, a harmful contaminant. Also present in the biogas are ...

Fond du Lac, WI – Biogas Application Profile - Case Study
About the Project The Fond du Lac Regional Wastewater Facility modified it’s biogas handling system in 2012 to include a process to biologically removal hydrogen sulfide; physical adsorption of siloxane compounds; moisture removal, a new biogas-fueled engine and a liquid storage system for receiving hauled in high-strength waste. The methane produced by the anaerobic digesters is cleaned ...

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 ...

Sustainable cost reductions: biogas from liquid wastes
Generate energy instead of consuming it: treating liquid wastes and wastewater on a communal basis to generate biogas is an interesting alternative to conventional wastewater treatment and disposal for dairies. This is becoming a serious consideration for the future for milk producers given the globally increasing challenges arising from wastewater regulations or CO2 guidelines. More and more ...

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 ...

Algal biofuels from wastewater treatment high rate algal ponds
This paper examines the potential of algae biofuel production in conjunction with wastewater treatment. Current technology for algal wastewater treatment uses facultative ponds, however, these ponds have low productivity (∼10 tonnes/ha.y), are not amenable to cultivating single algal species, require chemical flocculation or other expensive processes for algal harvest, and do not provide ...
