Secure feedstock

Quantity, moisture, regularity and methane potential should match the selected operating mode.

Size the biological core

Retention time, loading, temperature and mixing affect stability and gas production.

Treat and use biogas

Dehydration, desulfurization and safety controls precede use for heat, cooking, electricity or other recovery.

Do not forget digestate

Digestate is a co-product to store, characterize and recover according to agronomic and regulatory conditions.
