Aligned Digesters – Anaerobic Digester

Anaerobic Digesters For The Dairy Industry

About the Company:

Aligned Digesters designs and builds anaerobic digesters for dairies that create revenue from biogas generation, while easing the regulatory burdens associated with dairy permitting. Anaerobic digesters maximize the value of dairy waste streams and strengthens the overall dairy operating position.

The Aligned Digesters team knows the needs of the dairy. Every member of the team has worked with dairymen, and understand that a digester built for dairy needs to run as reliably and predictably as the dairy itself. Aligned Digesters design and build tough, reliable systems and back them up with a service team that’s available around the clock.

About the Solution:

Aligned Digesters handles all of the engineering design, permitting, equipment purchasing, construction, and commissioning to get digesters from vision to reality. The operations team provides complete operations and maintenance services to deliver the reliability and gas production you expect along with cost certainty required to ensure a good return on the investment.

Aligned Digesters offer project financing for dairies that want to benefit from project revenues but prefer not to invest directly in the digester. They also work on a fee-for-services basis for dairymen that want to finance and own the digester themselves.
