Anaerobic digestion (AD) processes plant-derived material (called biomass) into gas for heating and power generation; the gas produced is called methane or biogas, which is produced by bacteria that digest biomass and produce methane as a by-product,
Anaerobic digestion (AD) processes plant material (called biomass) into gas for heating and power generation; the gas produced is called methane or biogas, which is produced by bacteria that digest biomass and produce methane as a byproduct.
Biomass includes anything derived from plants; municipal solid waste, manure, crop residues, compost, food waste, paper, and wastewater. It is possible to grow crops specifically used for AD as supplementary raw materials or stabilizing materials.
Glass Fused To Steel anaerobic digestion tank is made of Glass-Fused-to-Steel, also call Glass-Fused-to-Steel tank.After firing at 820°C-930°C high temperature, the molten glass reacts with the steel plate surface to form an inert and inorganic bond, which combines the strength and flexibility of steel and outstanding corrosion resistance of glass, so Bolted steel anaerobic digestion tanks can provide many advantages over standard epoxy or welded painted storage tanks.The high temperature fusion of glass to steel fired at 850 degree results in an inert , durable finish . Applied to both interior and exterior , the GFS technology is able to withstand the rigorous of the construction site and provide many years of trouble free service in harsh environments .Glass-Fused-to-Steel technology is the premium coating technology in the storage tanks market,

Application of GFS Anaerobic Digestion Tank
Glass Fused To Steel anaerobic digestion tank are utilized in many situations where industrial or agricultural operations produce a significant organic waste stream . In addition , municipal solid waste ( MSW ) landfills produce landfill gas from natural decomposition of organic material in the waste that can be captured for use as an energy source . Many MSW sites now have wells to capture biogas produced from waste decomposition . Wastewater treatment plants ( WWTPs ) can also be converted to operate anaerobically , and they can be used to produce biogas from a variety of wastes .
