Genia Bioenergy, the division specialized in the development of biogas plants of the Genia group, wants to launch a new biomethane facility located in the Valencian municipality of Llíria in which an investment of just over 8 million euros is planned. The project aims to convert 192.700 annual tons of organic waste, mainly from the agri-food sector, into biogas.
According to sources from the company itself, to distribute this biomethane the Valencian group already has an agreement with Enagás which will allow the production of the future plant to be poured into its transportation network. In fact, the gas company has already collaborated with Genia Bionergy in other biogas plants that it has recently commissioned.
The engineering and promoter firm is currently processing the Community Impact Declaration for this facility, which also has the support of the Llíria City Council itself. The facility, whose production process will also allow the generation of fertilizers, plans to be supplied with both urban waste and waste from the food industry, livestock farming and sewage sludge.
The project contemplates being installed on an area of 16.857 square meters and its installation would allow "correct management and recovery of non-hazardous waste to obtain renewable energy with an approximate reduction of 37.784 tons of CO2 equivalent per year."
Genia Bioenergy has participated together with Grupo Arcoiris, dedicated to the agricultural and livestock sector, and the Valencian Selev Biogroup, specialized in the comprehensive management of biowaste, in the start-up of a biogas plant in Valderrobres (Teruel) and plans another with Selev in Picassent (Valencia), which already has its Environmental Impact Statement and will process 141.000 tons of organic waste each year to convert it into biomethane and biodiesel.
