Evaluation of Anaerobic Digestion Options for Groups of Dairy Farms in Upstate New York. August 1998 This publication summarizes the results of a one-year study of anaerobic digestion options in York, New York. The overall goal of the study was to determine the
technical and economic feasibility of converting dairy wastes to useful products in a centralized anaerobic digestion facility that would serve the York community,
an area including approximately 100 dairy farms that maintain a total of more than 30,000 animals within a 20-mile radius.
Anaerobic Digestion in the U.S. This paper talks about the types of anaerobic digesters used in the United States and discusses their advantages and disadvantages. Evaluation of what type of digester is needed on a farm depends on several factors, for which a feasibility study can be conducted to design the most fitting system.
