System of hydraulic mixed digester
 
The GBU system reactor perform's all these functions, featuring optimum substrate management and blending without moving parts or additional energy. The gas produced causes the pressure in the main fermenting chamber to rise, which in turn leads to a drop in the fluid level combined with a rise in the levei in the secondary fermenting chamber. Once the two chambers have reached a certain predetermined level, the. gas mixing flap opens, causing instantaneous pressure equalization. The returning substrate is guided in such a way that it destroys both surface scum and sediment layers and ensures thatthe mixture is reliably blended.
This structural principle guarantees reliable function, a long service 1 ife and practically maintenance-free operation.

"Biogas" is a water saturated gas mixture containing about 65-75% methane, 20-30% carbondioxyd and small quantities of hydrogen sulphide and ammonia. The average energy content of the biogas is about 6 kWh/Nm³. A typical analysis of biogas is shown in the following table

Methan (CH4)

40 - 75 Vol.-%

Kohlendioxid (CO2)

25 - 60 Vol.-%

Stickstoff (N2)

0 - 7 Vol.-%

Sauerstoff (O2)

0 - 2 Vol.-%

Wasserstoff (H2)

0 - 1 Vol.-%

Schwefelwasserstoff (H2S)

0 - 1 Vol.-%
