A 16.5m cubic meter bio-methane plant is planned for installation at Arla Foods Videbaek, Denmark site. The location produces milk powder.

The new plant from Xergi is to supply its milk powder production with green energy in the form of biogas, which is converted to electricity and heat. The Nature Energy Videbaek biogas plant is expected to be up and running in late 2018.

With five biogas digesters each with a capacity of 9,500 cubic metres, the biogas plant can handle around 600,000 tonnes of biomass a year.

"The plant will be equipped with a number of new technical solutions developed by Xergi. The solutions improve the gas yield from organic residues from the food industry, agriculture and households. The Nature Energy Videbaek plant will therefore – internationally – become an important reference plant in the transition to green energy," says Jørgen Ballermann, CEO of Xergi.

Every year a total of 40,000 tonnes of the residual product Perlac 14 will be digested in the biogas plant at Arla. The residual biomass is used as fertiliser by local farmers.

"When manure and deep litter are treated in the biogas plant the nutrients are made easily available for the crops. This means that farmers can utilise the fertilisation value of their manure better and at the same time new nutrients recycled from industry are continuously being supplied to agriculture. In this way agriculture receives greener and more environmentally-friendly fertiliser while Arla Foods receives a green energy supply," explains Ballermann.
