Anaerobic digestion system ADI® (CSTR)

Moderate-rate, complete-mix, anaerobic digestion process Eliminate hauling of raw liquid/solid waste streams Reduce trucking costs and tipping fees for solids disposal Alternative, energy-producing approach to handling solid waste streams as opposed to traditional methods such as landfilling or incineration Improve local and global water security Consistent operation and performance Geomembrane cover provides easy access for sampling and maintenance Data trending for process control Continuous biogas production rate results in simple integration with utilization source Moderate-rate, complete-mix, anaerobic digestion process. This proven technology maximizes contact between the anaerobic biomass and degradable organics, making it a good choice for digesting difficult-to-treat waste streams with high concentrations of solids, and fat, oil, and grease (FOG). Additionally, primary sludge or waste activated sludge can be digested in the ADI® CSTR to further increase biogas production. A solids separation stage can be used to decouple the hydraulic and solids retention times, which can result in increased biogas production and stability. The CSTR can be paired with a membrane barrier, resulting in the cutting-edge ADI® anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) system that maximizes biogas production and generates the highest possible quality anaerobic effluent. Digests the most difficult-to-treat wastewater and slurry streams Consistent operation during variations in influent feedstock characteristics Solids recycle for increased biogas production and stability Easily upgraded to an AnMBR system Recover energy from biogas to reduce plant’s fossil fuel usage
