Biogas & Anaerobic Digestion
The Challenge - Sewage treatment plants, food and agricultural facilities produce large volumes of sludge and organic waste. This waste is:
Heavy: large volumes to handle, store and transport
Costly: trucking and disposal add cost every day
Wasted: the energy it contains is thrown away
The Solution
Aquatreat designs, builds and operates anaerobic digestion plants that treat sludge and organic waste without oxygen. Bacteria break the waste down and release biogas, which is stored, treated and used to generate electricity and heat on site.
The Result
Renewable electricity and heat produced from waste
Less sludge to transport and dispose of
Digestate that can be reused as fertilizer or soil conditioner
Lower operating cost and a smaller carbon footprint
