The plan is to introduce heated FOG directly into the heating loops for 4 anaerobic digesters.  Other than grit removal and heating, no treatment of the FOG is planned.  I've found there is a lot of information online regarding increased methanogen health, and improved bacertial growth, but you can easily overfeed with grease.  I think this was addressed in an recent WE&amp;amp;T - &lt;A href="http://www.wef.org/ScienceTechnologyResources/Publications/WET/08/08Jan/08JanuaryFeatures.htm"&gt;http://www.wef.org/ScienceTechnologyResources/Publications/WET/08/08Jan/08JanuaryFeatures.htm&lt;/A&gt;</description><pubDate>Tue, 26 Feb 2008 09:38:45 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Pellet</dc:creator></item><item><title>Grease concentration before feeding to digesters</title><link>http://www.wef.org/TechnicalDiscussions/Topic8471-10-1.aspx</link><description>I am looking for anyone with experience concentrating and feeding concentrated grease to anaerobic digesters - technologies used, other conditioning methods (chemicals, emulsifiers, etc) and operation and maintenance info - good, bad and the ugly.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Anything would be appreciated&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;kfonda</description><pubDate>Thu, 21 Feb 2008 20:31:36 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>kfonda</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
