At Probiosphere we have the right Archaea strains to boost methane production facility. Whatever the type of reactor in use. From conventional agricultural fermenters, to UASB, EGSB or CSTR. Studies conducted on Archaea additive have proven to accelerate methane production. Particularly in reactor start up phase. The trials clearly demonstrated that the microbial biomass present in the Archaea additive is capable, after rehydration, of stimulating the production of biogas in anaerobic reactor, with an efficiency identical to that of the control biomass (U1) and with an efficiency almost as good as the fresh biomass (F1).

New waste separation techniques are being implemented, and R&D programs focus on much more than waste-technology alone. The importance of biomass is recognized as a potential high-energy source for electricity and biogas. DMT’s ambitious approach is based on the principles of circular economy and cradle to cradle: waste products are in fact very valuable. We constantly investigate new ways in which to approach ‘waste’ from a different perspective.

Syngas (short for synthetic gas) can be burnt and used as a fuel source, the main constituents of syngas are Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Hydrogen (H), which amount for around 85% of Syngas, and it is produced by a process called Gasification. Gasification starts with a base material which can originate from a wide variety of materials for example wood chips and pellets, plastics, municipal solid waste, sewage, waste crops, and fossil fuels such as coal. During Gasification the base material is reacted at high temperature without combustion with controlled amounts of oxygen (O) or steam. The composition of the base material combined with the amount of oxygen and heat used in the process affects the composition of the resultant SynGas, in which the CO can vary between around 20 and 60%. In addition, large amounts of H and CO are also formed. The measurement of CO is therefore an important feature in the production of SynGas.
