The US Biogas Market: 2,200+ Operational Biogas systems 14,000+ POTENTIAL New Biogas Systems Includes landfills, wastewater treatment plants, farms, and food waste processors. - Patrick Serfass #sustainable #energy

"Of all the operational biogas projects, they are almost all profitable and self-sustaining. Only in the rare cases do biogas projects have to shut down because of sudden lack of profitability." - Patrick Serfass from @ambiogascouncil #sustainable #energy

IMPORTANT STATS: 65,500,000 tons of food waste daily 31 billion gallons of wastewater daily 8 billion cows, chicken, turkey, and pigs All are opportunities for #renewableenergy

Biogas - sludge, manure, food waste, and organic waste breaks down into methane. Methane is a greenhouse gas - but it can be reused and turned into #sustainableenergy.

Methane from biogas systems can be used for: - Vehicle Fuel - Heating Homes - Pretty much everything conventional natural gas is used for! From Patrick Serfass at @ambiogascouncil #renewable #sustainable

Example Project: Forest County Potawatomi. In the parking lot of a Casino, a biogas facility processes 132,000 gallons a DAY of food/water waste from a Casino. #sustainable

Patrick Serfass from @ambiogascouncil : "If you use the right engineering you can handle pretty gross stuff perfectly well." #sustainable

The most advanced wastewater facility in the WORLD is in #DC. "If you look in Google Maps, the river water produced from DC Water/Blue Plains is a beautiful blue. Fish love it!" - Patrick Serfass from @ambiogascouncil #sustainable

DC Water/Blue Plains generates 13 MW of power - halving its #energy consumption. That's worth $10 million in savings - Patrick Serfass from @ambiogascouncil #sustainable

@dcwater produces Bloom Soil - a fertilizer produced from their wastewater treatment plant that they sell in bulk. That fertilizer is used on the National Mall! #sustainable #WashingtonDC
