Biogas Technikum
The large-scale technikum in Cottbus is used as a research and development center and serves in particular to further optimize the GICON® Biogas Process. In addition, project-specific, preparatory test series with original materials provide great certainty for the design and engineering of the respective client plant.
The 450 m² technikum offers optimum conditions: state-of-the-art equipment enables both organic raw materials and residues as well as new technological developments to be examined individually and evaluated regarding their suitability for large-scale use.
For investigations on a laboratory scale, two laboratory plants are available in the technikum, each with six, 200-liter reactors. A container plant consisting of four percolation containers of 40 m³ each and two methane reactors of 12 m³ each is used for experiments on an industrial scale.
Within the framework of R&D projects, the focus lies on the topics of efficiency enhancement, biogas upgrading and digestate utilization. Newly-developed technologies and measurement techniques are tested under realistic conditions and evaluated with regard to their suitability for practical use
Laboratory and large-scale trials for the anaerobic treatment of organic raw materials and residuals
- performance of client trials to determine gas potential
- execution of client trials to increase the efficiency of anaerobic treatment of organic raw materials and waste
- carrying out laboratory and large-scale trials as part of R&D projects
Large-scale implementation and investigation of newly developed technologies in the field of bioenergy
- testing of newly developed measurement and sensor technology under practical conditions (gas flow, gas composition, quantitative and qualitative determination of process liquid)
- test of processes / plant concepts for gas treatment
- test and evaluation of auxiliary substances (enzymes, trace substances, etc.) for the biogas process
Our performance aspiration - A good solution for you!
