Depending on the farm, the biogas is used to generate electricity and to fuel boiler systems. The remaining farm-scale projects include mixed digesters for several swine farms throughout the U.S. for farrow-to-finish farms, ranging in size from 1,000 to 3,000 sows. The swine farms use the biogas to generate electricity. In adition, Environomics is experienced in permitting, utility negotiations, public relations, feasibility studies, and publications.

The AgSTAR Program is a voluntary effort jointly sponsored by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and the U.S. Department of Energy. The program encourages the use of methane recovery (biogas) technologies at the confined animal feeding operations that manage manure as liquids or slurries. These technologies reduce methane emissions while achieving other environmental benefits.
