ANAEROBIC DIGESTION

Ideal for Treating  High-Strength Wastewater and to Convert to Biogas, Energy, and CBG.

                   

Built for 
High-Strength Applications

Anaerobic Digestion is a high-efficiency biological process for treating high-strength industrial wastewater by breaking down organic matter in the absence of oxygen. Renewsys engineers these systems specifically for High Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) Effluents, enabling significant load reduction while converting organic waste into Biogas and Compressed Biogas (CBG).

Deployed as a Primary Treatment Stage, Renewsys Anaerobic Solutions reduce downstream aeration demand, stabilize influent variability, and optimize hydraulic retention times. This ensures consistent performance, effective energy recovery, and lower sludge generation—making them ideal for applications where wastewater strength, energy efficiency, and operating cost reduction are critical.
