Document Description
The proposed project includes construction of an anaerobic digester on 1.28 acres of an 8.08 acre parcel owned by Pixley Ethanol, LLC. Manure and wastewater will be transported to and from the anaerobic digester via pipelines from Four J Farms Dairy, located ~1 mile to the south. In addition, ~3 truckloads a day of organic/food waste will also be trucked to the facility, where it will be mixed with manure prior to digestion. Access to the digester site is from Road 120, a County maintained road. Transport of methane-rich biogas will be transported from the digester to the Calgren Renewable Fuels facility. Calgren will use the biogas to replace a portion of the natural gas currently being used for ethanol production.
