Viewing Grant Proposal: BioWorks Energy-CoDigestion and Anaerobic Digester-Combined Heat and Power

BioWorks Energy proposes installing co-digestion infrastructure at the City of Saginaw wastewater treatment plant to process food waste along with sewage sludge. BioWorks also plans to retrofit the existing unused tanks at the plant with the necessary improvements needed to use them as anaerobic digesters for this co-digestion. From there, the increased biogas produced from co-digestion will be utilized for combined heat and power electricity generation. BioWorks anticipates installing a combined heat and power (CHP) system with a rated electrical power capacity of 550-kW and 900 kW of thermal (hot water). BioWorks seeks to utilize the plant's existing assets (existing tankage and piping system) to create mutual benefit through a Public-Private Partnership with Saginaw.
