Common Anaerobic Digestion Challenges

Efficiencies within anaerobic digestion result from several factors; operational, chemical, and biological conditions. Few companies genuinely understand how correctly accounting for the chemical and biological conditions within each system reduces risks and increases the long-term profitability of a digester project.

Common RNG Issues
We Can Tackle

Sulfur Remediation

Hâ‚‚S is an unavoidable part of anaerobic digestion. In trace amounts (less than 50 ppm) the effect on your anaerobic digester is negligible. Our sulfur study determines the best sulfur solution for your digester by testing a number of commercially available additives with your feedstock.

  • Recommended additive solutions 
  • Technology-neutral advice to find the best custom solution for your anaerobic digester’s unique specifications.

Foaming Remediation

Digester foaming events can have a catastrophic impact on gas production. Our foaming study helps you to understand the nature of your foam so you can treat it quickly and effectively.

  • 1-hour consultation to identify the source of your foam and a sample analysis to identify a rapid solution.
  • Further consultation will also be made available at a discounted rate as needed.
