Danish biogas specialist Xergi is set to provide a new plant to local dairy company Arla Food for the production of milk powder, in what will be the biggest facility in its portfolio.
The Nature Energy Videbaek biogas plant in western Denmark is expected to come on line in the autumn of 2018.
It will have five biogas digesters, each with a capacity of 9,500m3, and have a combined production capacity of 16.5m3 of bio-methane.
Most of the plant’s annual 600,000 ton biogas intake will come from agriculture in the form of manure and deep litter. Leftovers will be used by farmers as fertilizer.
Although built in accordance with the design of other Xergi plants in the UK, France, the US and Denmark, the facility will be equipped with new features that improve gas yield from agriculture, the food industry and households.
