OUR EXPERTISE

DIGESTION

HIGH PERFORMANCE DIGESTER

Typical installation

compensationtank

The sludge is stirred about 4 times/h for 30 seconds with the combined effect of the pump and the static mixers: Mass transfer Separation of the biogas

How it works

Size of sludge treatment process≈ 1 Usgal (4 litres) / d / EI

Type of digester / description Layout Biogas (energy) production

20.000…50.000 EIup to 220 US ton/d (200 m3/d)

1 digester(up to 1 300 yd³ or 1 000 m³ )onsite built and equipped digester

Up to 5 300 m3/day(100 M BTU‘s/day)

50.000…400.000 EIup to 1100 US ton/d (1000 m3/d)

Up to 6 digesters(up to 7 800 yd³ or 6 000 m³)

onsite built and equipped digesters

Up to 26 600 m3/day(500 M BTU‘s/day)

retrofitting of an existing plant with a high-performance digester
