Boom bei Biogas?

Heimisches Biogas, das ins Gasnetz eingespeist werden kann, könnte künftig an Bedeutung gewinnen. Hintergrund sind geplante Änderungen am Heizungsgesetz. Union und SPD fordern, dass Gasanbieter ab 2029 einen Mindestanteil von zehn Prozent Biogas bereitstellen müssen. Ziel ist es, den Anteil erneuerbarer Energien im Wärmesektor zu erhöhen.

Collaborative / Joint project „MuD BMA Lewitz“

The project partners came together in order to build a demonstration plant for the fermentation of large quantities of horse manure and for the production of bio-LNG as a fuel. Intended input materials for the fermentation are farm manure, including horse manure from Paul Schockemöhle Pferdehaltung GmbH, and energy crops.

Demonstration Project: Biomethane from Horse Manure

Together with Schockemöhle Bioenergie & Co KG, we are developing an optimised substrate logistic concept. The particular challenges here are the minimisation of energy losses during storage and the handling of impurities. Operators of other biogas and biomethane plants can also learn from this if they are planning to ferment large quantities of manure.
