EnviTec Biogas starts to deliver with largest AD plant in US


The US arm of German power and heat company EnviTec Biogas has begun to feel the benefit after commissioning its largest ever US anaerobic digestion (AD) plant at the start of the year. It is also now a third of the way through a plant pipeline roll-out.

Located in South Dakota, the plant has been processing more than 300,000 gallons (1,100 cubic metres) per day of manure from more than 9,500 dairy cows per day since January.
