Table 1 – Comparison of On-site vs Centralized Anaerobic Digester systems On-site Centralized Advantages Disadvantages Advantages Disadvantages Transportation No significant transportation costs Can be expensive and logistically difficult in some areas if distance between farms and digester is significant Maintenance/ Operation May be expensive and time consuming for a smaller operation A trained manager devoted to the facility could handle all tasks proficiently By-products Readily available products for quick application and use (e.g. heat for the digester, composted solids for sale, liquids for fertilizer) May not be able to make cost-effective use of all by- products (e.g. sale of excess electricity may not be worthwhile) Large volumes of saleable by- products may be produced for niche markets. Larger quantities of electricity may be available for sale to a utility at a profit Costs to transport useable by- products back to the farm operations may be considerable, depending on logistics Biosecurity concerns Regulations Regulations may not be as stringent for an individual farm compared to a centralized digester operation Construction/ operation and reporting requirements may be burdensome Compliance becomes the full responsibility of third party operator Regulations may be more stringent for a centralized operation Source: Bothi and Aldrich, 2005. 8
