Field-scale Demonstration of a New In Situ Biogas Upgrading Process to Produce Renewable Methane from Food Waste
Abstract
This paper presents a field-scale demonstration of a novel in-situ biogas upgrading process for producing renewable methane from anaerobic digestion (AD) of food waste. We scaled up Argonne’s patent pending process (US Patent Application No.14/540,393) from pilot- to fieldscale. Field-scale demonstration of the biochar additive process was conducted at CleanWorld’s American River Packaging (ARP) Plant in Sacramento, California to produce transportation fuel. Addition of biochar rich in monovalent and divalent cations into the digester stimulates accelerated carbonation for CO2 sequestration. The steady-state methane content increased from 66% before adding biochar to 78%. The higher methane content generally leads to a 5.2% increase in the ability of the membranes to capture methane in the biogas and 28.8% less tail gas (the gas rejected by the membranes) production with a higher methane content (39.3% versus 27.6%).
