Période du rapport: 2023-09-01 au 2024-08-31

Nowadays, the construction of digesters for biogas plants is made of steel or concrete, which is highly expensive and not eco-friendly. Recent changes on EU directives on lowering incentives for biogas production have excluded sophisticated solutions, promoting the choice of simple, innovative and cost-efficient solutions. Alvus proposes a new construction philosophy for the digesters based on the eco-friendly solution of mechanically stabilized earth (MSE). Our solution provides the following advantages: (i) Realization of larger volumes, at a drastically reduced cost (55% CAPEX savings compared to traditional concrete digesters); (ii) Lower CO2 emissions (up to 85%), reduced environmental impact and better incorporation of the plant in the agricultural landscape; and (iii) Easy and quick construction. Thanks to this EIC project, Alvus will be able to develop, validate and commercialize a disruptive innovation, revolutionizing the entire biomethane market.
