General description of the project activity

The purpose of the project activity is to install a sequential stage of wastewater treatment with methane recovery to an existing anaerobic lagoon system without methane recovery for the treatment of organic wastewater generated by a tapioca starch manufacturing plant. The biogas will be used for electricity generation for onsite consumption that will displace electricity from the grid . The project activity will reduce GHG emission by: 

1. Avoidance of methane emissions from anaerobic decomposition of wastewater from the open lagoons treatment system.
2. Displacement of carbon intensive grid power by generating onsite renewable energy
