METHODS FOR PRODUCING BIOGAS AND RENEWABLE NATURAL GAS USING CO-PRODUCTS FROM A STILLAGE STREAM AS FEEDSTOCKS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240336941 titled 'METHODS FOR PRODUCING BIOGAS AND RENEWABLE NATURAL GAS USING CO-PRODUCTS FROM A STILLAGE STREAM AS FEEDSTOCKS

The patent application describes methods and systems for producing biogas and/or renewable natural gas using clarified thin stillage or syrup as feedstock for anaerobic digestion.

  • Anaerobic digestion of clarified thin stillage or syrup produces methane-containing gas streams such as biogas and renewable natural gas.
  • The process involves introducing the feedstock to an anaerobic digester and digesting it to produce the desired gas streams.

Potential Applications:

  • Renewable energy production
  • Waste management in agricultural and industrial settings
  • Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions

Problems Solved:

  • Utilization of waste products for energy production
  • Sustainable production of biogas and renewable natural gas

Benefits:

  • Renewable energy source
  • Reduction of waste and greenhouse gas emissions
  • Cost-effective energy production

Commercial Applications:

  • Renewable energy industry
  • Agricultural and industrial waste management sector

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the use of clarified thin stillage or syrup as feedstock improve the efficiency of biogas production? 2. What are the potential environmental benefits of utilizing this method for renewable energy production?

Frequently Updated Research: Research on optimizing anaerobic digestion processes for increased biogas yield and efficiency is ongoing in the renewable energy sector.


Original Abstract Submitted

disclosed herein are methods and systems for producing biogas and/or renewable natural gas. methods of producing biogas and/or renewable natural gas include using clarified thin stillage, clarified thin stillage syrup, or any combination thereof, as a feedstock for anaerobic digestion to produce the biogas and/or renewable natural gas from the resultant biogas. methods for producing biogas and/or renewable natural gas include: (a) introducing feedstock comprising clarified thin stillage or clarified thin stillage syrup to an anaerobic digester; and (b) digesting the feedstock to produce methane-containing gas streams, such as biogas and/or renewable natural gas.
