Digesters wrapped with heating blankets and insulation.

There are only four solutions to overcome a decrease in microbial activity and consequently a decrease in the production of biogas due to low ambient temperature in cold climates. There solutions include: the design of the digester, the size of the digester, the type of input in the digester, and finally the heating technique for the digester.

Please refer to the attachment to learn more about each solution.
