EISENMANN Corporation: The Company Its Processes and Technologies
EISENMANN is a leading international supplier of environmental, renewable energy and manufacturing systems technology.
For 60 years, they have offered some of the most advanced process and environmental solutions as well as comprehensive service programs that provide industry leading performance and eliminate costly downtime for industrial plants around the world.
Biogas Processes Offered
EISENMANN’€s BIOGAS Green Waste technology utilizes anaerobic digestion to convert high solid waste organics to biogas. The biogas can either be directed to a combined heat and power (CHP) system to produce electrical power or it can be cleaned/compressed and fed into the natural gas pipeline. In addition they also offer systems for the utilization of biogas as a transportation fuel alternative.
The EISENMANN Corporation’s proven High Solids Anaerobic Digestion (HSAD) technology is a highly efficient system.
Their BIOGAS-GW system is an integrated organic waste to energy solution. The modular pre-engineered design incorporates the latest in material handling and feedstock pre-processing technologies. A typical system includes multiple input channels to accept a range of feedstock and the ability to separate unwanted contamination. The closed system design mitigates concerns over odor.
The Company
They employ approximately 2,800 employees worldwide, with 60% in Europe and the remainder are based in the emerging markets
The company was founded by Eugen Eisenmann in 1951, and is still wholly owned by the family.
They have three offices in Germany, in addition to their US office.
Recent Projects
The EISENMANN Corporations technology is clearly one which holds the confidence of Santee Cooper, South Carolina’s state-owned electric and water utility.
They announced recently (in May 2011), the approval of a 20 year contract with W2E-Organic Power to receive 1.6 megawatts of electricity generated from a soon to be constructed biogas plant, based on the EISENMANN Corporation’s design and equipment. The renewably generated electricity from that project will be enough to power 800 homes. W2E–Organic Power could begin delivering power to Santee Cooper within a year.
Also, W2E–Organic Power recently (May 2011) received its state environmental permit and plans to build the 1.6-MW generating station in Columbia. That plant will utilize EISENMANN’s proven BIOGAS-GW anaerobic digestion technology to convert food waste, grease and yard waste to biogas.
