BioCrack II

What it is

Vogelsang BioCrack II is an electrokinetic substrate conditioning system that supports access of anaerobic microorganisms to organic nutrients. For biogas operators, it offers a process-oriented way to improve feedstock preparation without adding a high-wear mechanical cutting stage.

How it works

High-voltage fields inside the module disrupt aggregates and colloidal structures in the flowing medium. This can make organic compounds more available to the fermentation process. The modules can be integrated vertically, horizontally or at an angle; the brochure also describes combinations with RotaCut.

Where it is used

Fermenter circulation; recirculation loops; heat-exchanger circuits; liquid recirculate preparation.

Key advantages

• Non-mechanical electrokinetic treatment with low module power consumption.
• Can be added to existing biogas plants according to plant layout.
• Modular layout and compatibility with RotaCut pretreatment.

Technical characteristics

Manufacturer brochure: only 35 W per module; reported potential benefits of up to 18% more biogas and up to 30% lower internal electrical consumption in cited applications. These are brochure claims, not guaranteed project results.
