AD Optimization: An Integrated Systems Model for Sustainably Managing Dairy and Food Waste
(2020-11)With the potential increases in the value of biogas used for renewable natural gas (RNG) for transportation fuel and other uses as low carbon fuel, compared to the value for use for electricity production, there is a ... -
Biogas Utilization
(Dairy Environmental Systems Program, 2021-12)Biogas produced from anaerobic digestion at a dairy farm can be utilized in several ways. To date in New York State, biogas has been predominantly utilized to fuel combined heat and power (CHP) systems to produce electricity ... -
Part 1: Absorption chilling process, types, and comparison to compression chilling
(Dairy Environmental Systems Program, 2020-03)Absorption chillers use heat to generate chilled water for cooling. If the source of heat is inexpensive or even “free”, such as recovered waste heat from a biogas-fueled engine-generator set, absorption chillers can cost ... -
Part 2: Applications and practical considerations of absorption chilling for dairy farms
(Dairy Environmental Systems Program, 2020-03)Dairy farms that have anaerobic digesters to treat their manure can utilize combined heat and power (CHP) systems fueled by biogas. CHP systems produce waste heat, some of which is used to maintain the digester temperature, ... -
Part 3: Technical feasibility of dairy farm applications of absorption chillers
(Dairy Environmental Systems Program, 2020-03)The technical feasibility of utilizing an absorption chiller running on waste heat generated by a biogas-fueled engine-generator set on a dairy farm is discussed. Example heat generation from on-farm measurements of a ... -
Part 4: Economic feasibility of milk cooling with lithium bromide absorption chiller
(Dairy Environmental Systems Program, 2020-03)This fact sheet reviews the economic feasibility of pre-cooling milk on a dairy farm using a lithium bromide absorption chiller operating on excess waste heat available from a biogas-fueled combined heat and power (CHP) ... -
Renewable energy options from biogas
(Progressive Dairy, 2021-11)Anaerobic digestion (AD) of dairy manure and other organic material (e.g., food waste) produces biogas that can be used for renewable energy options. The options in use today include generating electricity and heat using ... -
Simple Cost-Benefit Analyses of Biogas Use and Tariff Options for an Existing Anaerobic Digester System on a New York State Dairy Farm
(Dairy Environmental Systems Program, 2020-07)New York State (NYS) enacted the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA) in 2019 that established a renewable energy program under public service law and listed renewable energy systems. This listing resulted ...
