Title:
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ANAEROBIC DIGESTION AND COLLECTION OF PRODUCTS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/047815
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Described herein are methods and systems that can provide independent energy generation as well as systems for the generation of other useful products, such as chemicals. In addition, the systems and methods can provide ways of harnessing the potential of biomass feedstock to generate a multitude of products including green crude, biogas, electricity, heat, fatty acids, biodiesel, ammonia, and chemical products. In many cases, the systems and methods herein utilize anaerobic microorganisms, including aquatic and ruminant organisms, to digest material and create products.
