Bioenergy for the future
The future of biogas goes hand in hand with the amendments to the Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG). In Germany, thousands of farmers are already #heroes of the energy transition by building a biogas plant.
In future, the focus will be on biogas plants on smaller farms that are operated with manure/slurry. The potential of these farmers is to be exploited. In addition to energy from organic residues, such as from the organic waste garbage can or food waste.
From a political point of view, an expansion of this energy production is desired, more than ever before. Reducing the burden on the environment, promoting renewable energies, achieving the expansion targets and becoming independent – these are the goals of our future.
Expansion targets & manure fermentation
y 2030, regional renewable energy should and must be used significantly more in Europe in order to drive forward the energy transition and achieve the expansion targets. Biomethane and biogas are becoming more and more important and small-scale manure plants are being brought into focus, as these concepts make further use of existing residual materials and exploit the maximum potential.
This means that the way is also being cleared for smaller farms. This creates jobs and exploits regional opportunities.

CIRCULAR ECONOMY IN AGRICULTURE
Simply explained, circular economy means that raw materials or products are used for as long as possible. For example, waste should be avoided through reuse or repair. If this is not possible, the products can also be recycled. But how can this circular economy be applied in agriculture?
Let’s take a fictitious farm owned by the Peters family as an example. On this farm, 200 cows are kept and the arable land is used to grow fodder for the cows, which can therefore feed themselves.
Manure and slurry from the cows can later be spread on the fields as natural fertiliser to give the soil back the nutrients it needs. However, if the farm manure is digested in a biogas plant beforehand, important energy opportunities can be used!
Biogas – the optimum solution
After much deliberation, the Doe family wants a smallscale biogas plant for their farm. By using manure and slurry in a biogas plant, emissions such as carbon dioxide and methane can be avoided. It can also generate a new source of income for the farm.
In principle, a biogas plant works like this: In the airtight digester of a biogas plant, the natural
decomposition of the substrates, e.g. energy crops, slurry or manure, begins with the help of various
microorganisms. This produces biogas and what remains is the digestate.
The produced multi-talent „biogas“ can be converted into electricity, heat, bio natural gas or fuel. In addition, the digestate can be used as high-value fertiliser, thus closing the natural nutrient and humus cycle. By digesting the farm manure in the biogas plant, its methane emission is reduced to a minimum.
Agriselect – Doe Family
plant type: Agriselect
installed capacity: 150 kW
Input: Cattle slurry and manure
Specials: The plant was fed only with manure and slurry from its own 200 cows as well as grass silage / fodder residues
“We have 200 cows on our farm. That is 25 t of manure / slurry and an additional 2.5 t of grass silage / fodder residues per day, which we feed into our biogas plant. This gives our plant an output of 150 kWel.
We apply the digestate to the farmland again. In addition, we directly heat our residential house and our buildings on the property with the energy generated. This saves us over 10,000 litres of heating oil a year. And we have found a second mainstay for our business.“

About us
We at agriKomp have been developing pioneering biogas systems since the mid-nineties. To date, we have realized more than 1,000 biogas plants with a total installed capacity of around 400 MWel with our customers. It was, and is still today our goal to make it possible for agricultural businesses to enter the energy market, quickly and with minimum outlay.
We develop and manufacture all the essential biogas plant components which guarantees reliability and quality. Why not profit from our long-standing experience!
