Biogas plant cleaning

AEKS provides specialized biogas plant cleaning services that combine mechanical, chemical, and hydraulic techniques to clean and maintain anaerobic digesters, holding tanks, mixing pits, pre-treatment systems, and gas-tight infrastructure critical to biogas production. Our services are engineered to restore reactor volume, improve biogas yield, and ensure continuous plant uptime—while operating in compliance with strict safety and environmental regulations.

Over time, digesters accumulate inorganic materials (such as sand, grit, and stones), fibrous content, fat layers, and biological sludge that reduce active digestion volume, interfere with mixing, and compromise microbial activity. AEKS addresses these issues with minimal disruption to ongoing operations, allowing for partial or complete reactor cleaning depending on the client’s operational strategy.

Scope of Services

• Full or partial digester emptying using high-capacity vacuum systems or transfer pumps
• Mechanical removal of heavy grit, fibrous material, and floating crusts
• Jetting and flushing of pipework, agitators, and feed systems
• Inspection support for post-cleaning integrity checks and condition assessment
