on this hot water circuit, and generates up to 40kWe. After the Green Machine has removed heat from the hot water circuit, the anaerobic digester removes heat, followed by several buildings for district heating. Any excess heat not consumed by the Green Machine, anaerobic digesters, or building heat is removed by the engine cooling radiator. This biogas plant is the first of its kind to connect the Green Machine to the first heat loop, providing it with higher waste heat temperatures to increase power output, while maintaining proper heat input to the anaerobic digesters. The addition of the machine reduces the onsite electricity needed to reject excess heat through radiator fans, increasing plant efficiency by up to 8%. As a result, the Green Machine improves site economics by producing electricity and lowering onsite power demands. Location: Inning, Austria Heat Source: GE Jenbacher 312 Gross Power Output Range: 18 - 32kWe Thermal Heat Input Range: 260 - 450kWt Hot Water Input Range: 180°F (82°C) – 200°F (93°C) Hot Water Flow Range: 50 -130 GPM (3.15 – 8.21 l/s) ElectraTherm installed a Green Machine in Austria at a biogas power generation facility to produce additional electricity from engine heat without additional fuel or emissions. The system produces biogas through anaerobic digestion to fire a 500kWe GE Jenbacher 312, generating electricity to sell to the grid and heat crops during harvest. With the inclusion of the Green Machine, excess engine heat is employed to generate additional electricity. Hot water enters the Green Machine at 190°F (88°C), where it heats a working fluid into pressurized vapor, using ORC technology. The high pressure vapor expands through ElectraTherm’s patented twin screw power block, spinning an electric generator and creating up to 32kWe. The vapor is cooled by water from a liquid radiator and condensed back into a liquid, then it is pumped to the evaporator to repeat the process. The anaerobic digestion process begins by gathering and piling maize from nearby corn fields. Whole corn plants are ground, stored and then loaded into a self-feeding hopper. From the hopper, the maize biomass is pumped to the digester, where methane is produced through mesophilic anaerobic digestion. The methane in turn fuels the engine. Approximately 200 Hectares of corn are required annually for producing 500kWe from the Jenbacher engine. “In addition to increasing plant efficiency, the power generated by the Green Machine meets Feed-In Tariff requirements by the utility, which can pay up to 18.5 Euro cents per kWe,” said Karl Leisch, President of WTI and project developer. “The value of the Green Machine provides a significant revenue stream for 20 years.”
