Cooperation with the Guangxi University in Nanning,
Guangxi, China
The Guangxi University is one of the largest and most
important universities in southern China. The Institute
of Environmental Engineering concentrates on many
issues, which include the treatment of municipal and
industrial waste, landfill technology and thermal waste
treatment. A particular focus lies on the anaerobic
treatment of organic household waste, which is carried
out in cooperation with the Ministry of Forestry.
Guangxi is the Chinese Centre for the Development of
anaerobic technologies. The program for the construction
and dissemination of decentralized biogas digesters
is supervised from here. In the meanwhile, there
are operating about 25 million of such small biogas
plants in China.
periences gained during the long running time of these
small decentralized plants in China and the large
central plants in Europe may lead to new fruitful approaches
for this technology.
