Methane Recovery Project Aben is based on a livestock farm in the town of Wanroij located in the Netherlands. At this farm, animal waste is collected from its own stock and the many pig farms in the southeastern Netherlands. The waste is converted into biogas with the use of anaerobic digesters, which powers irrigation pumps that previously used diesel fuel. It also fuels electric generators. Electricity in excess of the farm’s needs goes into the local power grid. Waste heat from the process helps dry any remaining animal waste, making it more suitable as fertilizer.
