Biomethane generation process through livestock waste

This process, known as anaerobic digestion, allows organic waste of animal origin, such as manure and slurry, to be converted into biomethane, a renewable, low-carbon gas.

Collection and preparation of waste

At this stage, livestock waste, such as manure and slurry, is collected from animal breeding facilities. It is important to carry out adequate waste management to ensure an optimal mixture in terms of organic matter and nutrient content.

Storage and mixing

The waste is stored in a designated area, such as a pond or storage tank, where it is allowed to ferment. It is essential to ensure adequate mixing of the waste, as this influences the efficiency and stability of the anaerobic digestion process.

Anaerobic digestion

In this key stage, the waste is introduced into an anaerobic reactor, also known as a biodigester. The biodigester is a controlled environment without oxygen, where microorganisms decompose the organic matter present in the waste, releasing biogas as a product of fermentation.

Digestate treatment

Digestate treatment refers to the management and processing of solid and liquid waste generated during the anaerobic digestion or biogas process. Digestates are byproducts of biogas production, which is a process in which organic waste decomposes in the absence of oxygen to generate biogas, which is a mixture of methane and carbon dioxide.

The treatment of digestates is important to maximize the efficiency of the anaerobic digestion process and minimize the environmental impacts associated with the waste generated. Some common digestate treatment techniques include:

  • Solid-liquid separation
  • Dehydration
  • Composting
  • Biological Treatment

Biogas production

During anaerobic digestion, microorganisms, primarily bacteria, break down organic matter into a gas mixture called biogas. Biogas is mainly composed of methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2), along with traces of other gases such as nitrogen, hydrogen and hydrogen sulfide.

Biogas purification

The biogas produced in the biodigester contains impurities and unwanted components, so it is necessary to carry out purification before obtaining biomethane. In this process, undesirable gases such as CO2 and hydrogen sulfide are removed using purification methods such as washing, drying and absorption.

Upgrading to biomethane

Once purified, the biogas undergoes a process to increase its methane content and convert it into biomethane. This process is generally carried out through techniques such as compression, absorption or membrane separation, and allows obtaining a gas with a composition similar to that of conventional natural gas.

Storage and distribution

Biomethane is stored in storage tanks and distributed through the existing gas network, allowing its use in conventional energy applications. It can be used as fuel for vehicles, injection into the natural gas network or as a source of heat and energy in different sectors.
