Aylmer, ON (Canada) – With four generations of farming under their belt, the Walker family farm continues to expand and take on new & exciting ventures. In 2021, they completed the addition of an on-farm dairy processing facility and are now producing, processing, and packaging their own milk – all within 150 meters of each other. A local & fresh approach to providing healthy dairy options for Ontarians, as well as a sustainable commitmentto the environmentis a cornerstone in the farm’s commitment to the future. The Walker Farm has readily adopted new technologies and worked hard to reduce their carbon footprint, creating their newest venture in Walker RNG. Their decision to also partner with the experienced & talented team at DLS Biogas to ensure nothing goes to waste will soon see two digesters producing over 1,000 Nm3/h of carbon neutral biogas from animal waste. AB Energy’s BIOCH4NGE® Upgrading system was chosen to condition and upgrade the biogas to RNG; feeding the local gas grid with clean, renewable natural gas; in turn helping local businesses and residents achieve a lower carbon footprint with biomethane. In support of the facility, an ECOMAX® cogeneration unit will produce the power and heat required for the digesters, material handling and RNG-Upgrading – even further offsetting carbon emissions from traditional boilers, as well as energy transmission losses. A unique, powerful combination in clean energy technologies, BIOCH4NGE®& ECOMAX® each provide RNG-Upgrading projects with compelling capabilities in achieving optimal carbon intensities. This project marks AB Energy’s first North American BIOCH4NGE® installation, while adding to more than 30 worldwide RNG or RLNG sites in different stages of planning, construction, or operation. AB has also provided or installed over 1,500 ECOMAX® on-site energy systems globally.
