CR&R Environmental Services’ new anaerobic digester being constructed at the company’s Perris, California, facility is projected to be one of the largest dry anaerobic digestion (AD) projects in the U.S. when it begins operations later this year.
When the project was first announced in late 2013, CR&R said, “This milestone marks the start of the most significant project in the waste industry since the inception of statewide recycling in California over 20 years ago.”
Attendees of the Renewable Energy from Waste Conference have the opportunity to hear from the key players involved in the development of this game-changing project, which when at full completion will be able to process more than 300,000 tons of yard and food waste per year to produce biogas.
The system will use a high-solids AD technology from Eisenmann Corp., based in Crystal Lake, Illinois and features four parallel primary digesters. Biogas produced from the process is directed to an upgrading unit from Greenlane Biogas, Burnaby, British Columbia, and will allow CR&R to fuel its fleet of collection vehicles with compress natural gas and feed excess natural gas to a pipeline distribution system.
The session, "California Case Study: CR&R," brings together project developer to technology providers, engineering procurement construction (EPC) contractor and the facility owner who will discuss their role in accomplishing a waste conversion project from start to finish.
Moderated by Chip Clements, founder and president of Clements Environmental Corp., Sherman Oaks, California, the session will include presentations and a question and answer period with closely involved with the project, including:
- Michael Silva of CR&R;
- Brent Jaklin of, Greenlane Biogas;
- Bill Kosco of Eisenmann; and
- Jim Miller of JR Miller and Associates.
