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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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) ...

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 ...

Where To Find Money In Biogas
On the surface, wastewater treatment operations don’t appear to be handling precious material. But these facilities are actually processing a great deal of value every day. Sludge, a byproduct of wastewater treatment, turns out to be an entity worth cherishing. “Depending on treated sludge quality, the final product can be land applied, landfilled, incinerated, or composed,” ...

Biogas-to-biomethane upgrading plant
Chesterfield BioGas (CBG) supplied the UK’s first biogas upgrading plant to produce clean biomethane for direct injection into the national gas grid for use by all consumers. The project was successfully completed and gas injected into the national grid at the wastewater treatment site of Thames Water site at Didcot, Oxfordshire in October 2010. This achievement was a benchmark moment for ...

Energy at Wastewater Treatment Plants - A Short Primer
On the topic of wastewater, most people are understandably of the “flush and forget” variety. But today’s wastewaster professionals recognize that in the long term, our approach to sewage treatment needs to be less about “processing” wastewater, and more about “recovery” of limited resources such as water and energy from the incoming waste. ...
