  • What is biogas?

  • Biogas is a mixture of methane and carbon dioxide, as well as water vapour, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, ammonia and hydrogen sulphide, and is the end-product of an anaerobic fermentation process. It can be obtained from manure and other organic substances. In a system known as a digester, which is heated and airtight, micro-organisms break down the biomass at a temperature of between 35°C and 55°C.
    How does a biogas plant work?

    The principle is quite simple. Biogas is produced in a digester and is then converted into electrical energy and heat in a CHP unit. Our latest developments allow refined raw biogas to be fed into local gas networks. The fermented residue can be utilised as a valuable fertiliser. The energy produced represents an important contribution to active environmental protection, because it is derived from renewable materials.

    Ten good reasons to choose biogas
    • Biogas means independence from oil and gas imports.
    • Biogas plants generate thermal as well as electrical energy.
    • Biogas plants can heat buildings but also process water.
    • Rural areas are made more economically viable.
    • Biogas slurry is a valuable agricultural fertiliser.
    • Biogas slurry can be a substitute for mineral fertilisers, and protects drinking water.
    • Biogas slurry has a high level of plant availability and can even be used as a top dressing.
    • Biogas is eco-friendly, economical and dependable.
    • Energy is generated instead of simply throwing away organic residues.
    • The fermentation process reduces weed seeds’ ability to germinate.
      • BIOGAS PLANTS NEW CONSTRUCTION

      • 3 types of biogas plants for any size

          • Mini Ferm - 75kW yard system

          • - 75 to 150 kW
            - flat digester
            - robust gas Otto engine
            - short construction time
            - farm and agriculture

            With the plant system up to 75 kWel output you get even more out of your barn

            Liquid manure brings money!
            With cattle or pig manure from 100 GV, yields of up to yields of up to 20% can be achieved.
            Through the implementation of the new EEG 2014 75 kW plants will be remunerated for electric power up to 23.72 cents per kilowatt hour.
            You continue to take care of your animals - the manure ensures you the additional yield!

            MiniFerm biogas plants are suitable for every barn
            This type of plant is excellently suited for the exclusive use of farm manure, for example liquid manure, dung or HTK.
            By utilizing feed residues from livestock farming, the economic efficiency is increased.
            MiniFerm biogas plants guarantee independence from fluctuating substrate or lease prices.

          • UniFerm- 250kW – 2MW Plant

          • - 250 kW - 2 MW
            - flat digester
            - long-term proven
            - upward compatible
            - high efficiency
            - robust technology
            - agriculture

            This type of plant is particularly suitable for the use of farm manure (dung, slurry, HTK) and agricultural substrates such as corn, grass, cereal GSP, beets, etc. The UniFerm biogas plants can be operated highly efficiently using the AD AGRO-Separator system.

            UniFerm systems are based on fermentation tanks made of concrete, stainless steel or coated steel with diameters between 16 and 36 meters and heights between 5 and 10 meters. Large tank volumes and thus long residence times guarantee you a very high gas yield from the input materials used.

          • MegaFerm - Plants starting at 500kW

          • - from 500 kW
            - worldwide proven
            - high digester
            - highest dry matter intake
            - mesophilic and thermophilic process
            - very low energy consumption
            - Agriculture and industry

            A special feature of the MegaFerm plants are the fermenters made of reinforced concrete or enameled steel with a fixed ceiling and up to 24 m high. The "slim" high tanks with volumes of up to 7,625 cubic meters allow the use of large input volumes with optimum efficiency of the agitator. Thanks to the central agitator technology, even very difficult substrates can be fermented with low internal power requirements

            Because the input materials are constantly mixed, the tank volume is optimally utilized, thus enabling higher digester loads and shorter residence times. Since no floating layers are formed, gas production is quasi-continuous with constant gas quality.
