Imagine an all-electric transport system with no more ICE cars or trucks the market for Biodiseal and corn-based Ehanal collapses It takes energy to transport the FOG, so dump all your local FOG into the local sewage plant. Burn it all right there for power In my town, the local customer is BART and Muni IE electric subway and transit and the local sewage plant covers 140 acres so put solar panels on all of it and it could power 15,000 homes Return and pay the farmers to return the marginal Ethanal corn acreage to praire and Bison

I'm curious about a AD system for chicken manure. Currently I mix it with water as it's removed from the barn directly into an open-air pit, then applied from a Nuhn quad-train and cultivated in. I don't like having that much weight in the field and I have the proximity to run reels, but the feathers make injecting unprocessed manure impossible. Additionally I worry about N loss from open-air, and increasingly about being penalized for it by Big Brother in the future, too. And it smells bad LOL. However I've read people who've tried it have run into problems with the high ammonia fumes harming microbes and had to supplement.

Forgive my ignorance on the subject, but I must ask: the microorganisms produce CH4, then there is a bunch of hand-waiving saying it will generate electricity. How does the gas produce electricity, and more importantly, how is the production of CH4, which is a potent GHG, kept from entering the atmosphere during the process?
@FacilitiesMSU
@FacilitiesMSU 9 жыл бұрын
+Mal Vane You are correct, Methane is a strong GHG. Methane is also the main component of natural gas and a common fuel source. To reduce the GHG concern, the methane that is produced is held in gas tight storages attached to the digester. The Methane is then used as the fuel source for a 12 cylinder engine that turns the generator to produce electricity.

Thanks.
@FacilitiesMSU

عبد صالح The ability to produce biogas and the quantity of gas is highly dependent on the feedstock (flow). The approximate range of gas potential is 250 L/kg of volatile solids for manure to close to 1,000 L/kg of volatile solids for high oil/fat content feedstocks. Also, the type of feedstock dictates what the appropriate type of anaerobic digester will be. Without more information on the type of feedstock, it is hard to predict the biogas potential.

Hi Nantchev. Much of the energy invested comes from MSU's farm waste and food waste as fuel, so rather than having landfill fees, or needing to truck the manure off site, we can use the material as fuel to create energy.

EROI = Energy Return on Investment. How much more energy comes out then you put in? Fracking has an EROI of 1:1.5, meaning for the equivalent of 1 barrel of oil it produces 1.5 barrels worth.

The system uses between 5 and 7% of the electrical energy generated to sustain the process, meaning we are exporting 93 to 95% of the energy to other campus buildings. Since we are using combined heat and power, we also generate thermal energy in the form of 190 degrees C water. Depending on the time of year, anywhere from 3 to 20% of the thermal energy is used to keep the anaerobic digester at its operating temperature of 37 degrees C. We also use some the excess heat to keep adjacent research buildings warm in the winter.

@@FacilitiesMSU XPRISE CARBON PARTICLE CAPTURE The heat loss from a smokestack can be forced into a large tank containing hot liquid microcrystalline petroleum wax. The heat will keep the wax at a molten state which facilitate the carbon to be absorbed when combined with the wax. Carbon when mixed with wax reacts like a dye. The wax-carbon amalgamation result in a black wax solution thereby making it impossible for the carbon to escape into the environment. Other toxic particles are also captured in the wax settling at the bottom of the wax holding tank forming into a sludge. A sludge release valve is located at the bottom of the tank. After the sludge is removed more wax is replaced in the vessel working something like a toilet. The sludge becomes a byproduct that can be used as an additive to asphalt for roads or used for cocooning nuclear waste materials for long-term safe burial. The entropy of the Earth has been increasing at a startling rate since the beginning of the industrial revolution caused mainly by the carbon that is released into the atmosphere. Government scientists have failed to stop and prevent carbon pollution from entering the environment. This problem can only worsen until a solution is found before this problem becomes irreversible. It has been discovered that formulated wax has been shown to be the only answer to this problem. William Nelson waxogen@gmail.com

In 1950, a San Francisco east bay city (near Oakland) built a municipal sewage treatment plant with two cement 1 million gallon sludge digesters which are still operating very efficiently!! Log books show gas production. During the 1960's a 3 million gallon third steel digester was added, All extremely efficient, easy to operate. Cement, in my opinion, is much better, if engineered properly. The steel doesn't insulate as the cement does. And there can be problems with weld seems. Our facility has for decades been able to use gas for powering the entire facility, as allowed by law. The facility also has huge gas surplus which must be eliminated by burning off with "waste gas burners." Some surplus, as permitted by law, is sold back to grid. The trace nutrients in the facility effluence, along with the waste CO2 could, I think, be used for oil (lipid)/oxygen algae operation along side the sewage operation, powered by some of surplus methane.

The more I learn about it the less I am in favor of this idea. These digessters are having the unintended (or intended) consequences of expanding CAFOs in some states and the end product is stil the releasing of C02 into the air. The "nutrient rich" digestate is more water soluable and has a number of issues. Plus, this is only viable if taxpayers subsidize it. California is starting to question the benefits of biodigesters and there are talks of pulling back. More research is needed and once again I hope MSU would push more for regenerative farms instead of industrial CAFOs

You're still burning the fuel, though, and creating CO2. If you're running an internal combustion engine with it, you'll be producing more CO2 per MW of electricity, since there's no way you can match the thermal efficiency of a GE turbine. Your carbon foot print will still be larger. This project, however, still has a lot of merit (if it's well engineered). You'll be producing fertiliser for your agricultural department, and the plant will be powered only with your waste material, so it may save money and resources for your institution, and may cut down waste disposal costs.

if the organic material were instead left to decompose in a normal oxygen environment (outside), then it would also produce co2. If you want to capture carbon, then that is a different project. You could do it by drying and storing the plant materiel so it decomposed very slowly.
