Biogas
to Energy Generation at Commercial Swine Production Facilities
Colorado Governor's Office
of Energy Management and Conservation
The
13-state Western Regional Biomass Energy Program selected an OEMC proposal to
asses the technical, economic and environmental aspects of biogas-to-energy
generation possibilities at commercial swine production centers in Colorado.
Biogas is a combustible gas derived from decomposing biological waste.
Production of biogas such as methane is a result of anaerobic digestion, a
biochemical degradation process that coverts complex organic materials to gases
and other by-products.
