Biogestar

Our wastewater treatment plant system capable of use at he source the entire material, at any scale, city or town, and in every kind of buiding. Within the benefits of our system we can highlight the simplification in design and execution. It works under an anaerobic treatment process. Did you know that 70% of wastewater in Latin America are sent to the environment without any kind of treatment, this material ends contaminating fields and rivers. Considering that a home in Colombia produces between (5-17) five to seventeen cubic meters per month of wastewater and 50 kg average of organic waste, this value depends on the location, climate or socioeconomic situation, all this material without treatment produces Greenhouse Gases that represents 7 Tons of Carbon Dioxide home per year. This posed a challenge, to implement research and development into a new process that would allow treating wastewater at its source and making it useful to society. We took samples of wastewater from different places of the country, proceeded to analyze them in the laboratory, consolidated these samples and started with a pilot prototype near the town of Palermo, Huila. We test with different organic waste mixtures, to analyze the best ones in terms of efficiency and see the affectation presented by the detergents and other elements present in these residues. Bacteria and other microorganisms can not function effectively when the water content of the mixture is too low, and the amount of methane produced will be small. When the mixture is too diluted, relatively little organic matter can be degraded and the production of the biogas is limited. Within the process of research and development we made a discovery that can accelerate and make the methanization process more efficient, this is applicable to populations with problems of obtaining drinking water, where their consumption is low.
