A shift towards replacing fossil fuels with more renewable energy resources is expected to be a key driving factor in the growth of the Biogas Market. To help meet future global energy demand, incentives and even subsidies have been provided to encourage farmers, municipalities and industrial producers to increase their production volume. Biogas is produced by the breakdown of organic matter, typically plant and animal waste products, in the absence of oxygen using anaerobic organisms. The process is fully...

Biogas plants produce considerable surface water from silage and traffic areas that is highly contaminated with COD and nitrogen. Converted into population equivalents for wastewater treatment plants, add as comparative value the freight rates of the existing approx. 8,500 biogas plants across Germany amount to a total freight estimated at 8 million - 10 million PE. The pollution loads of these surface waters represent an enormous risk for our receiving waters and our groundwater if the current practice of...

Biogas is a renewable energy source created during Anaerobic Digestion (AD). It is a natural process that takes place within digesters where organic matter is broken down in the absence of oxygen. Production generally takes place within agricultural or industrial plants, such as breweries or food processing sites and creates a gas rich in carbon dioxide and methane, a potent greenhouse gas.

Companies or medium-large industries have to do with different types of organic by-products coming from their production processes, as coffee, sugar, ethanol, fruit juice, soft drinks, dairy products, oil, rice and other cereals. These by-products are a cost for the company, both from environmental and economical point of view: the leftovers need to be stocked and then disposed. The construction of a biogas plant represent the most efficient solution, eliminating the cost of disposal and at the same time, utilizing...

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.

AppliTek`s solutions in this field concentrate on the process efficiency of anaerobic digesters. Many existing digesters give unnecessary problems, which arise due to inadequacies in the process or process control system. AppliTek has developed a unique instrument to measure and control the key processes in the anaerobic fermentation. Compact gas analyzers with proprietary technology can be implemented to check the biogas yield. Parameters: Volatile Fatty Acids - Alkalinity - pH - Bicarbonate Gas parameters: CH4...

Anaerobic Digestion plants produce various gas components from a source material (or feedstock) that can be composed either solely or as a mixture of slurries, purpose-grown crops, food and organic waste material. The composition of the gas produced varies depending upon the feedstock and the Anaerobic digestion process itself. As a consequence, it is normal to measure various components of the resultant gas produced to evaluate the efficiency of the Anaerobic Digestion process. Furthermore, due to the flammable...

Food waste in general has a high energy density. This results in high yields when producing biogas through anaerobic treatment. Biogas is a very flexible energy product with proven capabilities in the power, transportation, and heat demanding sectors. In this sector, anaerobic digestion offers significant cost advantages over traditional disposal methods. By upgrading the biogas into natural gas using a DMT Environmental Technology system, a solid business case with an interesting return on investment is assured.
