Anaergia Lands Contract For Major Biogas Facility In Australia

Anaergia Inc., through its subsidiary Anaergia Australia Pty Ltd., entered into a contract with RF Corval Pty Ltd. (Corval) to deliver proprietary technology and equipment for an advanced anaerobic digestion facility at the Goodness Grown farm production site in Tongala, Australia.

 “This is the first project of its kind in Australia’s food production sector and is a cornerstone of Goodness Grown’s strategy to decarbonize production and demonstrate scalable circular‑economy solutions,” said Paul Geurtsen, project director of Goodness Grown.

 The facility is being designed to process up to 132,277 tons (120,000 tonnes) per year of mixed agricultural and commercial feedstocks. It is also expected to generate over 100 terajoules per year of gross biogas energy with the potential to displace a significant portion of the adjacent greenhouse’s liquid petroleum gas consumption. Captured heat and carbon dioxide (CO2) will be recovered and supplied to the adjoining glasshouse operations to support on-site energy and CO2 requirements.

 The project received funding from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) as part of ARENA’s National Industrial Transformation Program.

Anaergia will deliver services and technologies, including its proprietary PSM Mixers and Service Box Pro equipment. The plant is expected to be operational within two years and will convert organic waste into renewable biomethane.
