Small Farm Integrated Energy System Design

The purpose of this project is to design an anaerobic digester for dairy farm with less than 100 cows (representing 75% of New York (NY) diary farms). The anaerobic digester design will not exceed the normal management skills of a small farm operator and could be incorporated into a system. as shown here. The anaerobic digester design will be: Inexpensive, simple design, easy to operate.
