Feedstock from the farm
Pumps under the canopy feed liquid feedstock from the farm into the digester.

Understand what happens in the plant.
A closed biological process connects slurry management with energy production. Every component has a specific task.

Feedstock from the farm
Pumps under the canopy feed liquid feedstock from the farm into the digester.

Digestion in the horizontal chamber
Bacteria break down the feedstock without oxygen. Mixing and heating support the process.

Two biogas storage bags
Raw biogas produced in the digester flows into the two green gas bags above it.

Preparing the gas
White overhead pipes carry the biogas to gas cleaning in the technical container.

Electricity and heat
Cleaned biogas fuels the CHP unit in the same container. It produces electricity and heat.

Heat returns to the process
Heat from engine cooling warms the digester contents through internal tubes. Heating fluid circulates in a separate closed loop.

Digestate returns to the farm
Digestate flows to an external tank and may be used as fertiliser.
Simplified internal diagram
From slurry to three outputs.
Liquid feedstock enters the digester. Mixing and heating support the breakdown of organic matter by microorganisms without oxygen.
Biogas feeds a combined heat and power unit that produces electricity and heat. Digestate flows into a separate tank. Existing farm tanks can be integrated once their suitability has been assessed.
Digester
The documented MBG-20 installation uses a horizontal HDPE digester, insulation, heating with recovered CHP heat and SUMA mixing equipment.
Container and connections
The technical container and pipework connect the biological process with biogas and energy use.
The operator remains part of the process.
Daily operation includes preparing and feeding the slurry, checking the system and scheduled maintenance tasks. The time required depends on the farm and how the installation is organised.
The manufacturer describes its own automation and remote access in the MBG-20. Its services include commissioning and process stabilisation, plus support beyond the warranty period. The detailed schedule, scope and terms are set out in the offer.
Design, supervision and service.
The MBG-20 description dated 22-07-2026 identifies a GAZEX gas detection system, selected ATEX components and an explosion hazard assessment. These describe specific measures, rather than certification of the entire plant.
Safety depends on correct operation, monitoring and maintenance. The protection measures and procedures should follow the documentation for each project.
A site that fits the way your farm works.
Planning covers feedstock supply, digestate storage, vehicle access, servicing access, and electrical and heat connections. The project determines the space needed, not the dimensions of the 3D model.
The manufacturer describes simplified siting of the MBG-20 on prepared ground. The concrete base shown in the model is a presentation element, not a construction requirement for every site.
Closing the feedstock loop.
Digestate contains nutrients and can return to the nutrient cycle. Its storage and transport form part of the farm plan.
A closed process and well-organised storage help reduce emissions and odour nuisance. The effect depends on the whole system and its operation.
Does the plant operate without supervision?
Automation supports operation, but does not replace operator supervision or inspections. Daily tasks and service arrangements are agreed for each project.
Will all the heat produced be available to the farm?
Some is used for digestion. Use of the remainder depends on the season, temperatures and equipment that can use the heat.
