What is a Biodigester?

Aerobic Biodigesters are the newest treatment methodology for high-strength organic waste. They are extremely efficient because microbes are exponentially more effective at digesting organics, fats/oils/greases, and hydrocarbons if they have a fixed film media surface on which to live.

Aerobic Biodigester technology has been limited in the past by the type of aeration used. New developments in bubble size have expanded the use of biodigesters for high strength waste.

Benefits of Aerobic Digestion

Due to their consolidated footprint, aerobic biodigesters are becoming an excellent alternative to DAF and SAF systems. They use less horsepower and eliminate the need for costly chemicals. They dramatically reduce the sludge generated by DAF and SAF systems by digesting the organic materials.

Description

The Biodigester 15 is a fully self-contained, portable aerobic digester with a poly tank and poly skid. It repressurizes water from its finish water tank so that the water can be reused or discharged to a sanitary sewer. The cone bottom tank can settle solids that may accumulate and automatically purge them into a dewatering box or hopper. Get the PDF spec sheet
