Biogas plant, Lithuania

The cogeneration plant will specialise in the processing of chicken manure, mainly for biogas production. It will be possible to use the biogas produced by the plant to generate electricity or to convert it into fully sustainable and environmentally-friendly biomethane, which can then be fed into the local natural gas mains. The plant is expected to produce some 1000 m3 of biomethane per hour, an equivalent of the average annual consumption of some 10,700 energy-efficient homes. The digestate, a by-product of biogas production, will be converted into high-value liquid or pelleted organic fertiliser for agricultural use.
