Increasing energy prices have challenged every company already operating a biogas plant to increase biogas production at existing facilities. According to our technologists, this can easily be achieved by replacing low-calorie raw materials (pig manure, cow manure, etc.) with highly efficient raw materials, which until now were considered difficult to ferment.
For companies that are just planning the construction of biogas plants, the optimal selection of raw materials is one of the success factors.
We offer an increase in productivity up to 30% of your biogas station without a significant change in the design of the station itself due to the implementation of a chopper of crop residues and a chopper of dry raw materials for a biogas station into your technological process.
Corn crop residues (dried stalk and leaf after harvesting corn, not grain) are an excellent raw material for biogas production.
About 120 m3 of biogas is produced from 1 ton of corn crop residues under real conditions. Crop residues can replace up to 30% of input materials (in terms of dry matter). Harvesting of crop residues from the fields is carried out by a chopper with a cleaning width of 3 or 6 meters. The chopper cuts the stalk at a height of 5 cm, crushes it and places it in a swath. the selection of crushed raw materials from the field is carried out with the usual equipment available on the farm.
We demonstrate this technology in Bavaria and implement both existing facilities and new ones. This technology is also suitable for different types of straw, amaranth, miscanthus, sunflower waste, etc.
