Biogas production from agricultural wastes and animal by-products containing high amounts of organic nitrogen

For manure and renewable substrates thermophilic fermentation is favourable due to shorter hydraulic retention times and hygienic aspects. Using substrates with a high content of organic nitrogen, such as poultry excrements, the fermentation process may be problematic, because of the high ammonium concentration produced during the anaerobic degradation. Furthermore, due to the BSE-crisis, new economical and ecological solutions for the treatment of animal by-products are required.

The established production of animal meal and animal fat in the existing rendering plants with the subsequent incineration of these products is uneconomic. The alternative recycling concept is based on the process of Thermal Pressure Hydrolysis (TPH) including an anaerobic digestion. The process of TPH results in a splitting of the organic polymers by hydrolysis at higher pressure and temperatures in a special reactor with the guarantee of a complete disinfection. The TPH-Process allows an energy recovery from animal by-products. Keywords: anaerobic digestion, biogas, co-digestion

Die innerstaatliche Umsetzung des Pariser Klimaschutzübereinkommens - ein Rechtsvergleich
© Lexxion Verlagsgesellschaft mbH (8/2024)
Like all public international law treaties, the Paris Climate Accords rely on national law for their implementation. The success of the agreement therefore depends, to a large extent, on the stepstaken or not taken by national governments and legislators as well as on the instruments and mechanisms chosen for this task. Against this background, the present article compares different approaches to the implementation of the Paris Agreement, using court decisions as a means to assess their (legal) effectiveness.
