In a bio-methane niogas plant, the produced biogas is upgraded to biomethane and fed into a natural gas pipeline. The advantage of this system design is the fact that high efficiency will be achieved with the use of energy. Biomethane can be, for example, fed in the open countryside and afterwards converted into electricity and heat in existing heat sinks in urban centers.

In a combined heat and power plant (CHP), the generated heat and electricity can be used. Thereby a higher overall efficiency of the power generation plant is achieved. A distinction is made between current and heat-controlled CHP plants. Depending on the major need, the energy generation is balanced towards one or the other form of energy. The generated heat is in form of hot water transported via isolated pipes and used for heating buildings, for agricultural or industrial purposes.

An alternative for a waste plant is the cofermentation of liquid manure, sewage sludge and organic waste. In this process manure or sewage sludge is used as a base substrate, and other organic waste materials of agricultural, commercial or industrial production form the co-substrates group. If only waste is recovered, it is called waste facility, for example biological waste plants or industrial waste treatment plants
