Biogas Vienna: Energetic utilization of organic waste by wet anaerobic digestion

In various industrial scale digestion plants all over Europe organic waste is already used as an energy source for biogas production. The city of Vienna has also decided to install a digestion plant to treat biowaste, food waste and packaged food waste. The digestion plant in Vienna has a capacity of 17.000 tons per year and the plant is extendable in a second step to a capacity of 34.000 tons per year by increasing the operating time of the pre-treatment line and by installing additional equipment in a modular way.
