Abstract: A farm-scale research and demonstration digester has been constructed, operated and monitored on a private medium-sized swine farm. Materials handling problems have been studied. Bio-gas from the digester is used in a motor generator set to be integrated into the farmstead energy system. The digester has been monitored to determine operational characteristics, amount of energy produced and efficiency of energy production.
