Revolutionizing Biogas Production: WASE Launches Electro-Methanogenic Reactor Technology for Industrial Wastewater Treatment
WASE, a leading biotechnology company, has announced a crucial investment in their scale-up strategy and the delivery of their Electro-Methanogenic Reactor technology to customers. This technology is designed to maximize the recovery of biogas from organic matter in wastewater, ensuring that Anaerobic Digestion plants achieve the highest yields possible.
The company states that their units can increase biogas generation by 30%, which is up to ten times faster than traditional AD processes. Additionally, the technology boosts the methane content of biogas to over 80%, surpassing the typical 50-60% found in conventional AD processes.
Thomas Fudge, the Founder and CEO of WASE, envisions a future of Waste-to-Energy that maximizes economic and environmental benefits for all stakeholders. He believes that WASE’s approach not only increases biogas and biomethane yields but also reshapes the way industrial businesses think about their resources. The technology is making AD processes more profitable and productive while driving a shift towards more sustainable and efficient resource management practices.
Carlota Ochoa Neven Du Mont, Principal at Extantia, agrees with Fudge’s vision for WASE’s technology. She believes that WASE’s modular solution allows for customization, making it easier for companies to deploy at their site and ultimately leading to increased energy production and reduced costs in the long run. The plug-and-play system is designed to fit seamlessly into existing infrastructure and is significantly smaller (50-70%) than similar technologies currently available in the market.
In conclusion, WASE’s Electro-Methanogenic Reactor technology is set to revolutionize waste treatment and energy sectors by optimizing waste breakdown and boosting methane production across the board. With its modular approach and ability to increase biogas generation by 30%, this technology is poised to become a game changer in the biogas market.
