Substrate Disintegration and Viscosity Reduction Systems
Separation
Information
MCC Process Technology uses ultrasound technology to increase biogas yield in AD plants.
High frequency vibrations generated by ultrasound transducers cause cavitation in water. Cavitation breaks cellular structures into smaller pieces. Organic structure (lignin, cellulose, etc) which are not easily broken down by anaerobic digestion are also disintegrated and made available for biological breakdown.
This helps biogas plants in 2 ways:
• It is easier for the digester to breakdown organic matter and biogas yield is increased.
• Digester can process higher substrate feed or
• Operator can switch to a cheaper substrate which is harder to digest or
• Biogas plant can keep on generating same biogas amount with less substrate
• Viscosity in digester is reduced, all pumping and mixing duties are much easier, less mechanical failures, less down time.
