Double Membrane Biogas Holder for Cheese Wastewater Treatment: Collects and Holds the Biogas Produced from Dairy Whey and Processing Effluents

Double Membrane Biogas Holder for Cheese Wastewater Treatment: Collects and Holds the Biogas Produced from Dairy Whey and Processing Effluents

Cheese wastewater treatment facilities generate high-strength organic effluent, primarily consisting of dairy whey and processing effluents (including wash water, brines, and milk residues). The most sustainable and cost-effective treatment method is anaerobic digestion (AD), which stabilizes the effluent and yields valuable, methane-rich biogas. For the cheese production plant to maximize energy recovery and ensure operational stability, the biogas must be reliably and securely collected and held. The storage solution must be integrated, highly efficient at capture, and durable enough to handle the specific gas produced from dairy waste.

The Double Membrane Biogas Holder is the optimal technology for this specialized industrial application. It collects and holds the biogas produced from dairy whey and processing effluents. Installed either as an integrated flexible roof on the digester or as a compact, free-standing unit, this holder provides a dynamic, hermetic reservoir. This system ensures every cubic meter of gas is captured, pressure fluctuations are safely managed, and a stable, continuous supply is maintained for downstream utilization (e.g., boilers or CHP units), turning a waste liability into a valuable energy asset for the cheese plant.

Product Advantages for Dairy Effluent Biogas Management

Center Enamel’s Double Membrane Biogas Holders are meticulously engineered to handle the specific requirements of biogas derived from dairy processing waste, maximizing the efficiency, safety, and operational control of the plant.

Integrated Gas Collection and Supply Stability

The system acts as the integrated flexible roof of the digester tank, ensuring maximum gas capture efficiency by collecting the gas instantly. The inner membrane's volume dynamically expands and contracts to accommodate the natural volume fluctuations in biogas production inherent in continuous dairy processing. This acts as a perfect buffer, stabilizing the low pressure and supply of gas to the plant’s utilization equipment. This stability is critical for continuous industrial operation and maximizing the energy value recovered.

Reliable Energy Offset and Cost Savings

The substantial energy content of biogas generated from high-strength dairy waste allows for significant internal energy offset, which is crucial for the energy-intensive nature of cheese production (pasteurization, heating). The holder ensures a stable and regulated low-pressure supply of gas to the plant's utilization equipment. This stability is critical for continuous operation, maximizing the use of renewable energy generated from the waste, and significantly reducing reliance on external, costly energy sources.

Resilience to Corrosive Biogas Elements

Biogas generated from dairy processing waste is often high in moisture and can contain specific corrosive elements. The balloon is constructed from specialized, multi-layered composite fabric, which is selected for its exceptional durability and resistance to corrosive elements. This resistance is crucial for the long-term integrity of the gas-tight seal, ensuring reliable operation, minimizing fugitive methane emissions, and reducing maintenance costs in this industrial setting.
