The biogas plant in Pommeuse processes residues from agricultural cultivation such as grain, maize or sugar beet as well as intercrops from two farms. The wet anaerobic digestion process is ideal for these substrates. As the input materials for biogas production vary, fluctuations can occur in the biogas composition as well as in the volume flow. HZI’s flexible gas treatment technology using membrane-based gas permeation allows to be easily regulated to take account of this. The pressure-driven physical process is also impressive in terms of operating costs. The installation was constructed by HZI in its capacity as general contractor with comprehensive interface know-how.
