Dear All

Greetings from the PNW.

Do any of you have any plans or experience with building an anerobic biodigestor for conversion of wood waste to methane?

Best Regards,

Marcus

Cellulose is a difficult material to break down via microbial digestion. Considering this, then there is the problem of producing very small amounts of methane if any. Biomass gassification for wood is a better option.
