Omnivore Retrofit | Municipal Wastewater | California, USA 
Triple your anaerobic digestion capacity without new digesters
Omnivore is our advanced high-solids approach to anaerobic digestion. Our proprietary mixing system together with our robust thickening technology increase the solids ratio in digesters so that far more material can be digested in the same volume of space. Low-solids digesters become high-solids digesters so that you can accept more waste for anaerobic digestion. And if you’re building new digesters, they can be one-third smaller than a traditional digester—lowering both your capital and operating expenses for anaerobic digestion.
Co-digestion made easy
Omnivore high-solids digestion means your wastewater facility can co-digest source separated organics, the organic fraction of municipal solid waste, or food processing waste together with wastewater biosolids—increasing biogas production from the anaerobic digestion. With Omnivore, your facility can even co-digest fats, oils and grease. The resulting increase in biogas production allows many facilities to generate power onsite or put renewable natural gas into the regional pipeline system.
Improved performance
Our Omnivore system is easy to maintain and includes the ability to adjust the mixer position to break up floating layers and re-suspend grit–and access the mixer without taking your anaerobic digester out of service.
