Biodiesel Biogas and Cogeneration

BIOFUELS are the products of the fermentation and distillation of BIOMASS.
In particular, BIOGAS is produced using the humid part of the citizens’ rubbish or the animal dejections. In this last case, the technology now allows to realise simpler and cheaper systems than before.
BIOGAS is generally composed by METHANE and a small percentage of rare gas, so that it can be used for those typical applications of methane. If it is properly purified, BIOGAS can be even put into the city methane pipelines. However, it doesn’t happen because of the energy necessary for the gas purification.


VERY IMPORTANT: in the combustion of BIOFUELS (BIOGAS included) the CO² produced is at the so called “zero balance”, i.e. there’s the emission of the same quantity of CO² that plants and animals have absorbed during their life. Therefore, the environmental impact is much lower in comparison with the traditional fuels.
Another ecological advantage of the use of BIOGAS is that of preventing the introduction in the troposphere of the methane naturally emitted by organic biomass in a state of decomposition (animal dejections, organic remains, vegetal biomass, ext.).
Indeed methane is one of the most dangerous “greenhouse gases”, therefore combustion is preferred.

The programme of ENERECO srl
In cooperation with some companies, leaders in the production of such equipments, ENERECO srl is able to design and install “turn-key” systems for the treatment of biomass and the use of biofuels:

“WASTE-NRG” SYSTEMS
WASTE-NRG systems proposed by ENERECO srl use the organic part of waste for the production of biogas. A third of the waste daily produced is organic and its elimination in the dumps or its incineration have a lot of disadvantages from the environmental point of view. Using systems with hermetic reactors in thermic processes and creating, therefore, the anaerobic fermentation of the organic fraction, biogas can be produced. According to the composition of the organic waste, about 100-130m³ of biogas per ton can be produced, which correspond to about 70 litres of gasoline.

“BIO-NRG” SYSTEMS
BIO-NRG systems proposed by ENERECO srl produce biogas from animal dejections (cattle, pigs and chicken-dung). They are dimensioned according to the needs of the customer and above all to the number of animals bred. The biogas obtained can be used for the production of electric and thermic energy thanks to COGENERATION systems. The mixture obtained after the treatment is an excellent fertilizer, it is odourless and it contains no dangerous components for the environment.
