BioGas1
MAXIMIZE YOUR METHANE. BioGas1 blends macro levels of Iron, Cobalt, and Nickel with micro levels of seven other trace elements to enhance microbial metabolism. It leverages the combined effects of these elements to fortify and diversify the microbial community. This formula enhances metabolic activity, improves biogas quality, and can mitigate hydrogen sulfide production, ensuring efficient and cleaner digestion.
Macro Levels of Important Minerals, plus Micro Levels of Seven Other Trace Elements:Bioavailable forms of nutrients enhance microbial metabolism.
Balances Anaerobic Processes: Helps in the conversion of (VFA) volatile fatty acids (VFA) and prevents foaming and acidification.
Lowers Sludge Production: Effective VFA and COD conversion reduces sludge production.
Easy to Feed: Can be metered in with a chemical metering pump or manually added.
Mitigation of H2S Production Contributes to a healthier anaerobic community which promotes less hydrogen sulfide generation.

Demonstrated safe and effective for:
- Complete mix anaerobic digesters
- Covered lagoons
- Continuous Stirred Tank Reactors (CSTRs)
- Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) reactors
Key Benefits and Features:
- Enhanced VFA Conversion: Poor volatile fatty acid (VFA) conversion is often the root cause of foaming issues and suboptimal methane production. BioGas1 enhances VFA conversion, directly addressing these challenges and improving the stability and output of methane.
- Optimal Trace Element Balance: Understanding the crucial role of trace elements in anaerobic digestion, BioGas1 provides an ideal balance of micronutrients, including Iron, Cobalt, and Nickel, essential for the methanogenic archaea. This balance is pivotal in maintaining system efficiency and addressing concerns about trace element concentrations and their roles.
- pH Regulation Assistance: Rapid VFA conversion can lead to pH imbalances, potentially inhibiting methanogen activity and leading to system acidification. BioGas1 helps regulate these fluctuations, ensuring a stable environment conducive to optimal biogas production.
- Reduced Sludge Production: Effective VFA conversion and enhanced microbial metabolism also mean less sludge production. This not only enhances the digester’s operational efficiency but also reduces the costs and logistical challenges associated with sludge disposal.
- Mitigation of H2S Production: Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) generation is a significant concern in anaerobic digesters. BioGas1 contributes to a balanced microbial ecosystem, reducing H2S levels and minimizing its associated risks and odors.
- Addressing Grease and Long Chain Fatty Acid Challenges: While not always directly addressed in service calls, issues with grease and fatty acids can lead to toxicity and foaming. BioGas1’s nutrient balance helps mitigate these effects, promoting a healthier microbial community and smoother operation.
