Digesting Feedstocks For Improved Biogas Production
by Kevin Ripp, Dan McKeaton, & Chris Grove
In this event, Kevin Ripp, Director of Science & Innovation, Dan McKeaton, Director of Wastewater Education, and Chris Grove, Technical Sales Consultant, will answer audience questions relating to understanding anaerobic challenges when degrading feedstock to produce biogas.

Dynamic Duo
- Speeds the breakdown of proteins into amino acids
- Lowers levels of volatile solids and improves biological methane potential
- Works between 59 -140°F (15-45°C) and between pH 6.0 and 8.5
- Provide more consistency in operations and methane generation
Ana-Zyme G
- Quickly converts grease (long chain fatty acids) into methane gas
- Allows anaerobic systems to accept higher levels of grease into their processes
- Works between 15°C and 60°C and pH 6.0 and 8.5
BioGas1
- Boosts methane production by providing a consistent source of bioavailable micronutrients to methane forming archaea
- Provides consistent volatile solids conversion, a healthier population of methanogenic archaea, and a better quality of biogas production
- Contains ten soluble micronutrients that help convert acetate into valuable methane gas
