This year we already expect to receive orders worth 10 million euros in this area,\u201d says J\u00fcrgen Tenbrink, the board member responsible for Technology at EnviTec Biogas AG. Thus since April the newly formed \u201cRepowering\u201d department has been exclusively involved in optimising existing biogas plants &#8211; and with great success. In the first half of 2012 alone the expert team has already been able to provide help and advice to 20 operators. \u201cBy the end of the year we expect a further 20 orders,\u201d emphasised Christian Ernst, Head of Sales at EnviTec Biogas.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4719\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/BiogasPellworm1.jpg\" alt=\"Biogas Pellworm\" width=\"690\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/BiogasPellworm1.jpg 690w, https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/BiogasPellworm1-149x57.jpg 149w, https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/BiogasPellworm1-350x134.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 690px) 100vw, 690px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Opportunity for further financial development<\/strong><br \/>\nBy setting up a new department the biogas plant builder has reacted to the great demand in this area. This has recently been strengthened by the rise in the privilege limit. This change has given old plants the chance for further economic efficiency. For example, this can involve the addition of an extra combined heat and power unit (CHP), or exchanging an old CHP for a new one with higher output. Operators can also proverbially \u201cstep on the gas\u201d in substrate treatment. Targeted treatment of the substrate achieves higher quantities of gas from the input thus significantly improving the overall efficiency of the plant. This also saves the operator money due to lower input purchases. \u201cA further option can also be using our gas treatment plant EnviThan,\u201d explains Ernst. Gas treatment with membrane technology is suitable for plants with low raw biogas quantities and can thus be an interesting alternative to electricity generation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Optimisation<\/strong><br \/>\nAn individual decision about which concept is the right one for the plant operator is always made. What is authoritative in drawing up a repowering concept is therefore thorough consultancy and viewing the plant on site. This produces many different possibilities to increase the overall efficiency of a plant. Whether this concerns an EnviTec plant or a plant from another provider does not matter. Using a process analysis, a precise review is made to identify which option is the best to make a plant more cost effective. Only then will the cost effectiveness be recalculated and a tender submitted. The customer decides how things will go from there. However, one thing is certain for Christian Ernst: \u201cIt is our target to offer our customers the optimum in further developments and technical innovations again and again, making their plants even more efficient. This is the attraction of repowering for us and it also convinces our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Visit\u00a0<a title=\"EnviTec Biogas website\" href=\"https:\/\/www.envitec-biogas.de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.envitec-biogas.de<\/a> for more \u00a0information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EnviTec Biogas reacts with new range for biogas plant operators \u201cMaking what\u2019s good even better\u201d \u2013 this is the brief formula behind repowering existing biogas plants. \u201cOur range for increasing the efficiency [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":4717,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[18,229,302],"class_list":["post-4714","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-renewable-energy","tag-biogas","tag-biogas-plant","tag-repowering"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 -
