maxbiogas
100% more biogas
from new and conventional biogas plants without additional substrate
The efficiency of biogas plants using renewable resources (NAWARO) is severely limited by the lignin contained in the plants. The presence of lignin is the reason why only 40% of the NAWARO fed to a biogas plant is converted to flammable gases. This percentage varies depending on the substrate used. Maxbiogas solves this problem.
The maxbiogas process describes the chemical separation of the contained lignin from the plant substrates by the available waste heat. This enhances the efficiency of biogas plants by up to 100%. Additionally the kinds of substrate usable by the biogas plant can be enhanced with wood and wood-like substrates by the maxbiogas process. All plant residues such as leaves, straw, and forest wood residues can be used.
It is our goal to equip existing and new biogas plants with a self-contained module, the so-called LX-plant (lignin extraction plant). Biogas as a renewable energy resource will then be more profitable than the fossil fuels crude oil or natural gas.
