KUPFERZELL AGRICULTURAL BIOGAS PLANT, GERMANY Farmer Thomas Karle, owner of the Kupferzell agricultural biogas plant in Germany, is putting waste to work with a Capstone C200 microturbine in a CHP application. The C200 runs solely on renewable products to produce an estimated 1,500MW of electricity and 2,800MW of thermal energy each year. The result is an emissions avoidance of 500 – 1,160 kg CO2 per MW-hour. Methane gas that fuels the microturbine is produced at the farm in two digesters that break down the slurry and organic crop waste. While the microturbine’s clean-and-green electricity is fed directly into the utility grid, 100 percent of its waste heat is efficiently used to dry sludge onsite. In addition, hot exhaust from the microturbine flows directly into a dryer building that produces high-quality, natural fertilizer from fermentation residue. This organic and highly effective mineral fertilizer is then sold to local farmers and gardeners. With Capstone’s microturbine technology, organic waste is converted to fertilizer that is used by Kupferzell farms spanning more than 100 hectares (10.5 million-square-feet). RENEWABLE ENERGY Capstone microturbines cleanly burn waste gas to create renewable power and heat. Waste material buried in landfills biodegrades over time to produce biogas. Anaerobic digestion of domestic wastewater, agricultural waste, and food-processing waste also produces these gases. Many sites flare these waste gases or, worse yet, vent them directly into the atmosphere. The best environmental solution is to use the gases to generate renewable power. Capstone microturbines create renewable power from biogas cleanly and economically.
