Bioconversion feasibility study: cattle manure to methane. Final report
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5288302
The major processes necessary to convert feedlot manure into pipeline-quality gas are manure preparation, anaerobic digestion, gas treatment, dewatering/drying, and liquid stream processing are technically feasible and described in detail. The proposed facility is designed to handle manure from approximately 100,000 head of cattle. The following are discussed: the outlook for Imperial Valley cattle and manure supply, potential for byproduct utilization, basic design criteria, process selection, site identification, description of facility, cost estimates, and financial analysis.
