Biogas is a fuel that is generated in specific biodigesters through the biodegradation of organic matter. An anaerobic biological process that occurs in the absence of oxygen and promotes the production of a renewable energy source.
This type of process is focused on mitigating the impacts of climate change through emission reductions and reducing our dependence on fossil fuels by producing a green energy source, essential for achieving a more sustainable future. Through anaerobic digestion, as mentioned earlier, in addition to achieving an 80% reduction in storage emissions, we obtain a high-value fuel, biogas (50-70% methane), and a digestate with high fertilizing value and practically the same amount of Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium as when it was introduced into the reactor. In the methanogenesis process that occurs inside the reactor, volatile solids or organic matter will be susceptible to transformation into methane or biogas, providing a direct line of knowledge to define its biogas generation potential through anaerobic digestion. It should be noted that this type of technology, focusing on the BATs, complies with various points within its obligations. Among them, BAT 13 considers anaerobic digestion as a technique to reduce odor emissions from a facility and its impact. BAT 16 and 17 consider the established technology to reduce ammonia emissions to the atmosphere from slurry storage and BAT 19 as established technology for the in situ processing of manure.
Our Psychrophilic Biogas
The legislation and the BATs require new farms to achieve an 80% reduction in emissions from the storage of livestock manure. This is why one of the technologies that not only allows compliance with regulations but also achieves some efficiency in the pro
