New enzymes also crack dung
“Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come,” said Victor Hugo (1802-1882), one of the most important French writers.
The same applies to the new Generation 2.0 Biopract products, which make biogas production worthwhile again.
The trade press is now paying attention to the topic of “new generation preparations” (JOULE issue, 2/2017).
In an interview in JOULE, the specialist “magazine for energy professionals”, Dr. Matthias Gerhardt, Managing Director of Biopract GmbH, commented in detail on the functionality, possibilities and advantages of using industrial enzymes.
While the comments in JOULE are still theoretical, the 02/2017 issue of topagrar Energiemagazin focuses on practical applications.
Using the example of Hermann-Josef Benning, who has been operating a biogas plant in Reken, Westphalia, since 2004, the magazine gives an impressive account of how the use of the plant has changed over time.
And, of course, the use of enzymes also plays a key role.
For Benning, the poor maize harvest in 2016 was the trigger for thinking about alternatives to maize.
As a result, the natural raw material became scarce and expensive, operating costs rose and revenue inevitably fell.
Until then, farmer Benning had been rather skeptical about adding more manure as a substitute for maize, as he impressively describes in the article in topagrar Energiemagazin.
The successful formula “manure instead of maize” with the addition of UltraPract® P2 with the innovative acceleration factor AC resulted in a considerable increase in yield at the Benning plant.
At the same time, the amount of fermentation residue was significantly reduced.
Hermann-Josef Benning was convinced by the practical test and is certain that he will continue to optimize the performance of his biogas plant and reduce costs with Biopract’s enzyme preparations in the future.
