Expanding anaerobic digestion of New York's organic waste streams could cut the state's methane emissions 15% while improving public health and creating jobs, a New York State study suggests

In August, Vermont Creamery formally joined the Farm-Powered Strategic Alliance, a group of food and beverage companies committed to reducing food waste and sourcing renewable energy. 

Pentair has developed the anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) technology, together with partner Biothane. The new technology achieves a complete retention of the biomass in the anaerobic digester and brings a significant improvement of the digestion process: more robust, smaller footprint, fully automated operation, higher biogas production efficiency and superior effluent quality (free of suspended solids and typically 99% COD reduction).
