Driving silo as a biomass depot

10,000 metric tons of biomass of the maize cultivation are delivered here per year in the driving silos. Each of 4 driving silos is 15 ms wide and 70 ms long.

Renewable energy from biomass Renewable energy from biomass
Biomass can in an dense inhabited industry country be only a complement to electric power from sun and wind. At all enthusiasm for biomass, do not neglect the photovoltaic.




  Biogas direcly from plants


More hectare yield in energy allows the biogas production in Strem. Using again fallow sites for the agriculture, an income for farmers from the energy production.

The tent roof serves as a gas storage. The storage can store the produced gas for 11.5 hours. At the moment electricity and heat is produced with the gas in a 500 kW gas engine.


Fertilizer from the fermentation gas equipment Fertilizer from the fermentation gas equipment
The lagoon catches 2,000 cubic meters fertilizers. After 6 months of fermentation gas production the lagoon is full. Then there come the farmers and fetch the valuable fertilizer.


Surface yield with the power production
This fermentation gas plant is a big step forward, but also the proof of the fact that we must equip all our houses with complete photovoltaic roofs.






Scheme of the biogas production in Strem What hangs here as an facility scheme of the Thöni biogas production on a wall, we introduce on the next sides photo for photo in the reality. Unobtrusively in the landscape From the left to the right: District heating Strem with 2 * 500 kWh of gas engines. The gas tent of the second fermenter, the driving silo. The rest can not be seen from here. Solid entry From the driving silos are up to 50 cubic meters of biomass all at once brought in the solid entry. This thing is comparable, so to speak, to the mouth of the cow. Main fermenter 1500 m³ For the start, 1300 ms ³ sanies had been introduced to the bacterial cultivation . Another research equipment got by 2 years without slury supplies, here the researchers hope more. Fertilizer collection Here the farmers with the liquid manure barrels behind the tractor take over the liquid manure. The material what comes from the fermentation gas system is similar to cow dung.
