A new organic waste to energy plant facility, utilizing proprietary high solids anaerobic digester technology to convert separated organics into energy and soil amendments, has been established in by CWP in Sacramento California. The CHP system consists of a containrized 2G patruus 190 with an electrical load capacity of 190 kW/h or 1,577 MW/h per year. The thermal capacity is 235 kWh/th. The anaerobic digester has the capability of digesting material containing up to 50 percent solids. The biogas plant and CHP system is located in Sacramento and is designed to process 7.5 tons of commercial and retail food waste daily, along with ½ ton of non-recyclable corrugated cardboard.

The plant owner selected 2G Energy Inc. because of its advanced and proven technology coupled with the custom design and short lead times. He also decided to install the 2G Thermal Heat Distribution System including a Hydronic Junction. It assures that the CHP maintains optimum thermal performance at any time in different load situations. This advanced technology decouples the primary heating source circuit from the secondary consumer circuit. Consistent function is thereby achieved in all operating states. 2G THDA's provide the most energy efficient heat transfer. The system also allows for tighter temperature control because of the infinite system ability to regulate temperatures gradually. The controls and switchgear, including utility interconnection are also supplied by 2G. In addition to the CHP unit, 2G Energy Inc. also supplied the complete gas treatment, including cooler, dryer/dehumidification, and the H2S removal system. This advanced CHP system is equipped with BACT (Best Available Control Technology) for emissions control, coupled with an SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) technology package to achieve ultra-low emissions required in California.
