[QUOTE="sageb2, post: 8142742, member: 129434"] I've always been really interested to hear how the omni biogas plants are performing. I'd love to vist one if anyone here has one and doesn't mind me calling and chewing the ear off them for a few hours I have built a couple of turn-key biogas plants minus the CHP supply. An 80kW plant in Yorkshire running mostly on slurry and a bit of bedding muck back in 2017 and a 250kW plant in Northern Ireland a couple of years ago. The plant in the North runs predominently on slurry and a bit of silage. From my experience slurry only is a doddle. It's when you add solids that things start to get complicated, certainly pushes the capital cost up. I think I have the slurry only plant design cracked in terms of offering a robust plant for a reasonable price. We're a Permastore Tank and Bauer pump distributor so we get some the main components at a distributors rate so that definitely helps! The CHP is the only thing that i'm struggling to supply competively. I've looked at the Cummins (Chinese) CHP's but haven't seen any in operation. They seem affordable but not sure of the longterm costs. [USER=5570]@mawleymoos[/USER] would you have a rough cost of running your engine for the past 5 years? Also do you cool the gas and do any desulphurisation? [/QUOTE]
