There are a number of different household size digesters that have been built here in SA, from the common fixed dome brick & mortar design (very low success rate), to pre-fabricated plastic units, all the way to the DIY Biobag Digester Kits supplied by BiogasSA (over 100 successfully installed). However, all of these designs are focussed on rural households that have access to both space and organic waste (primarily animal manure) and comes at a relatively high cost of between R35 000 and R60 000 per unit installed. None of these designs are however suitable for urban households where access to space and organic waste is more challenging. We have designed the EZ-Digester specifically, although not exclusively, for this application in that it is mobile, compact, above ground, requires relatively low amounts of organic waste (primarily food waste) to operate and comes at a cost below R12 000.
An EZ-Digester project in a community will not only provide households with biogas for cooking and lighting, but could facilitate vegetable growing by using the digestate produced by the digester as organic fertilizer. We can supply the EZ-Digester as individual units or deliver a complete turnkey project, where we not only install the digesters and appliances, but also source and secure the waste from supermarkets, provide vegetable growing containers (incl seeds and seedlings), provide training on both biogas and vegetable growing and provide on-site technical support for a period of 2 years (negotiable) to ensure the long term success of the project.
This type of project has multiple and far reaching benefits for communities in terms of job creation (especially for youth and woman), skills transfer (new technology), entrepreneurship opportunities, improved food security at household level, contribution towards carbon mitigation, waste management and development of sustainable, renewable energy generation at household level.
