The company’s investment in their Electro-Methanogenic Reactor technology is a crucial step towards their scale-up strategy and the delivery of this revolutionary technology to customers. This cutting-edge technology is designed to maximize the recovery of biogas from organic matter in wastewater, ensuring that Anaerobic Digestion plants achieve the highest yields possible.
The company’s units are capable of increasing biogas generation by 30%, which is up to ten times faster than traditional AD processes. Additionally, the technology boosts the methane content of biogas to over 80%, surpassing the typical 50-60% found in conventional AD processes.
WASE’s plug-and-play system is a modular solution designed to fit seamlessly into existing infrastructure and is significantly smaller (50-70%) than similar technologies currently available on the market. This design allows for customization, making it easier for companies to deploy at their site and ultimately leading to increased energy production and reduced costs in the long run.
Thomas Fudge, Founder and CEO of WASE, envisions a future where waste breakdown and methane production are optimized across industries, with WASE leading the way in this biogas market. He believes that this approach will set a new standard in waste treatment and energy sectors by driving a shift towards more sustainable and efficient resource management practices.
Carlota Ochoa Neven Du Mont, Principal at Extantia, echoes this sentiment by stating that WASE’s approach not only increases biogas and biomethane yields but also reshapes how industrial businesses think about their resources. She believes that this technology will make AD processes more profitable and productive while promoting sustainable resource management practices.
