Plant capacity | 57.000 t/y of residual waste |
Waste type | Organic fraction of MSW |
Reactor volume | 3.960 m³ |
Start-up | 2012 |
Client | Attero B.V. |
The first DRANCO plant on the Attero-site in Wijster started producing biogas in 2012. The DRANCO digester treats the organic wet fraction from residual waste after pretreatment. The digester has a capacity of 57.000 tons per year. The biogas is upgraded and injected into the gas grid (‘green gas’). Attero B.V. opted for a dry DRANCO digestion in order to be able to sent the digestate to the incineration without any dewatering.
