BIOMETHANE UTILIZER Russian patent published in 2001 - IPC

FIELD: biological processing of agricultural run-off and waste accompanied by generation of methane used as fuel in mixture with liquid lithium in plasma state. SUBSTANCE: utilizer has run-off and waste receiver communicated with methane tank which has the following chambers: acid, neutral, alkali and methane fermentation chambers provided with dispersers. Methane fermentation chamber is communicated with fermentolysis column by biogas and after-fermentation liquid lines; this column consists of section formed by transversal perforated partitions with abrasive grainy immobilizing packing placed on them. Sections are brought into communication by overflow pipes; upper methane section is communicated with thermal electric generator which is provided with cylindrical plasmolysis chamber equipped with engageable tangential branch pipes coupled with chutes in coat, for examplegraphite melt. Chutes are provided with helical grooves of mirror-image arrangement; they are engageable at joint of chutes. EFFECT: enhanced efficiency due to increased generation of methane. 4 dwg
