Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all
Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation
Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns
Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalize the global partnership for sustainable development
The production process is upgraded to use the BATs and incorporate industry 4.0, interconnectivity and smart automation solutions, such as advanced software, cloud, robotics, and remote monitoring.
Through the abovementioned interventions the existing anaerobic digestion of organic matter will achieve maximum production capacity of biogas, to be fed to the cogeneration process for the production of electricity and thermal energy.
For the revamping of the anaerobic treatment process the following activities are expected:
- Adaptation of the FORSU pre-treatment systems, mainly by replacing the existing press unit with a higher performance machine that integrates advance technological solutions;
- Decommissioning of existing emergency flare, now out-of-service, and installation of new open-flame flare with steady combustion temperature;
- Decommissioning of the existing gasometer system and installation of a new two membrane press static system;
- Inertization with nitrogen, emptying and washing the digesters;
- Revamping of the anaerobic digestion system through replacing the vertical agitators, pumping systems and the polyelectrolyte dissolution system and reconditioning the piping and valves;
- Extraordinary maintenance of the existing biological desulfurization system and revamping of the biogas upgrading system by replacing the cogeneration units;
- Installation of an advanced monitoring system for the composting in-vessel reactors and for the anaerobic digestion process;
- installation of continuous remote automation and monitoring system.
