How to ensure efficient operation of anaerobic digestion facilities
Efficiency control and effectivity monitoring are crucial for the circulating mass flows in stable loop systems such as AD systems.
There are environmental, economic, technical and social parameters that need to be analysed to identify efficient and effective AD systems in a circular bioeconomy.
By 2050, Aotearoa New Zealand will have a circular economy with a thriving bioeconomy that seizes the opportunities from global trends and shifting consumer preferences.
Decentralised energy security from biogas installations incorporate complexity of energetical and economical production and utilisation. The objectives of efficient and effective AD systems are to match the demand and supply of the existing mass flows and to maintain reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. The design parameters need to be adapted of each individual installation and location. Logistics, planning, feedstock collection, treatment and operation, gas production and local electricity and heat supply, smart fertiliser management and distribution of energetical synergies all contribute to the long-term sustainable maintenance of AD systems.
In this webinar, Georgi and Katja will give you an overview of the most important factors to understand efficiency in AD systems and show how the implementation can be done to a circular bioeconomy.
The Know-How transfer can be progressed by learning from existing models and national/international challenges.
