IBERP Technology

We've created a new system called the Integrated Biomass Energy Recovery Process (IBERP) for energy and nutrient recovery. This technology meets both the letter and the spirit of resource conservation and carbon re-use. With this system, we are able to:
 
  • Remove non-organic solids from manure for recycling as bedding or other uses, prior to introduction into the digestion process.
     
  • Digest manure to reduce volume while producing methane gas via a digestion process.
     
  • Utilize produced methane gas to generate electricity, bi-product carbon dioxide and heat.
     
  • Capture heat for use in the digesters and other steps in the system.
     
  • Capture carbon dioxide, and convert it, through photo synthesis, to algal biomass.
    Use remaining liquid, nutrients and minerals from the digester as elemental source material for production of algae (above).
     
  • Harvest algae and process for protein, carbohydrates and bio fuels.
     
We can do all this without adding to greenhouse gases, polluting groundwater and soil or transferring the offending waste problem to another site.


Soil vitality is key to plant health
Decades of chemical farming methods have stripped the soil of its natural vitality. The BioFlora Sustainability System is bringing it back. More >
Biofuel from algae?
Our IBERP system produces significant amounts of algae, which can then be used to create biofuels. More >
Glycation implicated in aging and disease process
A decade ago the process of glycation, the cross-linking of sugar compounds with protein leading to oxidative cellular degradation, was primarily known to doctors and patients dealing with diabetes. Now, glycation is the next cutting edge wellness topic. More >
Nitrogen Ratios in Soil
Growth of soil microbial populations is limited by a lack of nitrogen. When large amounts of inorganic nitrogen are added, the C:N ratio is reduced. More >
