Knowledge & Practice
Practical knowledge on biogas, hydrolysis, straw digestion, biochar and funding – from more than 30 years of experience.
You know that there is more biogas in your feedstock than you are getting out.
As long as you can still separate out solids or have a floating layer, there is still biogas potential left.
With the Kalle Rave effect you get a few more percent of biogas out of your feedstock.
Like many other biogas plant operators, you are probably wondering how to carry on. The end of the 20-year EEG period, the Fertiliser Ordinance and the maize cap are just some of the keywords.
It’s not much fun at the moment, many biogas plant operators tell me.
Changes and investments are due.
UNIDO (United Nation Industrial Development Organization) has accompanied and support numerous biogas, biomass and biofuel projects in the past worldwide. To compile and share experience, UNIDO held an Expert Group Meeting on biomass with participants from various countries and backgrounds to discuss the lessons learnt for successful biomass projects.
Katharina Danner was invited as resource person for biogas, giving her expertise on international biogas projects to the participants.
We have structured the BAFA application process so that your time is reduced to 30 minutes. We take care of the rest. Up to 40% funding is possible for measures at your biogas plant, as long as CO2 is saved.
Temperature is the key factor in biogas biology!
But what about trace elements? What about shredding? What about agitation?
It’s always a domino effect. If the first domino – the higher temperature – doesn’t fall, the others won’t fall either.
3 simple steps for 10% more yield:
1. Performance check
2. Determine trace elements
3. Raise the temperatures in the biogas plant
We distilled 7 key questions to assess a biogas project.
If you want to help us improve, we´ll be happy to hear your ideas on our 7-questions-list.
And if you want to find out more about the viability of your biogas project, ask us for our questionnaire!

Due to Corona-restrictions, we want to give everyone interested in biogas a chance to meet us, Walter and Katharina, in this video and get a glimpse of our Biogas Technology!
1) Temperature is one of many factors or maybe even the one decisive factor in biogas-biology
2) 20 % Feedstock reduction with higher temperatures. This makes up to 50.000 – 70.000 € per year
3) Thermophile is as simple as mesophile
Benefit 1: Up to 50 % less nutrients at the same biogas quantitiy makes it easier to match with the fertiliser ordinance.
Benefit 2: No new final storage necessary because straw contains only little water. Separation even pulls water out of the system.
Benefit 3: Straw has a calculable price because no animal wants to have it will.
