CRONUS Functional Prototype 5 - Boecillo, Spain

Functional Prototype 5 (FP5): Anaerobic digestion system coupled with a microbial electrolysis cell (MEC)
Based on the findings of the subtask 4.6, an existing two-phase AD pilot plant will be retrofitted in terms of coupling a MEC system to develop a novel reactor model with the configuration more adequate for maximizing biomethane production. It will consume the CO2 produced during the anaerobic digestion process by in situ reaction with the H2 generated by a MEC unit located inside the system, in order to obtain enriched biogas.
