Homestead Green Energy Biomass Facility
Based in Plymouth, Indiana, Homestead Dairy has 1,800 milking cows and 1,700 cows come in from three nearby facilities for milking. Continued success increased cow manure and the odor was directly impacting the nearby residents. They decided to build a biomass waste-to-energy facility to convert the manure into electric power and Homestead Dairy partnered with local Cat dealer, Michigan Cat, to customize a green energy power generation system.

Combined Heat and Power (CHP) solution works
Seacliff collects vegetable and animal waste from nearby farms and greenhouses, generating enough biogas to fuel a power plant designed and supplied by the local Cat® Dealer, Toromont Cat Power Systems. The facility can currently process up to 40,000 metric tons of organic waste per year, which will increase to 100,000 metric tons once Phase II is complete. At that time, Seacliff will have the largest energy producing anaerobic digester in North America.

Dairy resolves issues and produces power for the facility
Bettencourt Dairies discovered a solution that would allow them to resolve the odor and methane issues, while also producing power for the facility and the local grid. Six one-million-gallon anaerobic digesters were installed at Rock Creek Dairy to process manure and mitigate odors. Approximately 200,000 gallons of cow manure are collected daily, pumped through a nearly mile-long pipeline to the digesters and processed into clean compost used for animal bedding. It’s the largest facility of its kind in the country. One of the generators runs continuously while the other unit runs variable hours following biogas production. Both feed power to an electrical transformer located outside the building. Exhaust heat from the engines is used to heat the six digesters.
