Characteristics of nutriment plus:

• high bioavailability
• Chelat-complex* as protective coating
• easy to dose liquid
• custom-made mixtures for individual application
• qualified counselling and analytic support supervised by
  Weihenstephan´s laboratory

*The Chelat-complex ensures that the added micronutrients are completely available to the microorganisms and do not form any unwanted bonds with sulfides and hydrosulfides which cause sedimentation in the digester.
(see illustration).

Good reasons for using NUTRIMENT PLUS:

• optimization of microbiological processes
• better utilization of applied substrate
• increased methane content and higher gas yield
• longer running period of combined heat and power (CHP) unit
• shorter mixing periods
• reduces the risk of floating layers or ground sludge sedimentation

Improved substrate utilization in your digester.

• The starting-up phase is shorter because the strained microorganisms are being supported in a positive way.

Operating mode:

• Stabilisation and improvement of the microbial
  degradation processes
  • marginal fluctuations in performance
  • increased methane content
  • rise of gas yield
• Nutriment plus prevents disturbances in biological
  processes

In case of a disturbance:

• clarification of the cause through parallel counselling
• full utilization is quickly restored after disturbance
• Nutriment plus secures stable processes

Practical example:

NUTRIMENT PLUS verifiably guarantees a stable degradation process, saves material and financial ressources and increases the entrepreneurial profit.

• improved utilization of substrate
• increase of volume capacity through extra substrate

General conditions:

CHP-Unit: 450 kWel
Remuneration: 16,18 ct

1) Calculation:
1.358 kWh (rise kWh/d) x 0,1618 € x 90 days = 19.775,20 €
2) costs of extra substrate not included
