Founded in 2005, the company has developed the world’s first scalable anaerobic digester to employ a tubular, modular design platform, geared particularly to small and mid-sized farms of 100 to 2000 cows. Designed to take advantage of the huge economic resources available in organic waste, our digester enables farmers to capture “bio-gas” derived from cow manure and convert it into energy that can power the farm and/or generate a new stream of income from ‘green power’ by-product sales. Sterilized solids from the digester can be sold or used on the farm for animal bedding, compost, or pelletized and burned for fuel. An added benefit of the closed unit is a dramatic reduction in odor emissions by more than 90%. All of these benefits make for a more cost-efficient, turn key operation that contributes to the remediation of air and groundwater, yielding safer, cleaner, less costly grains and produce for the public and the surrounding communities.
