2 | Anaerobic Control Analyzer CriƟcal parameters and process stability Anaerobic digesters are often perceived as self-regulating but require critical parameter monitoring in order to obtain optimal results. However, due to the expensive or time-consuming character of most analysis methods for anaerobic digestion, industrial digesters are usually not extensively monitored, except for a few parameters such as pH and gas ow. This is the reason why in reality commercial exploitation of full-scale digesters is often constrained. Operators prefer to keep the loading rate of the digester...

3 | Anaerobic Control Analyzer Analysis and liquid handling Data exchange and supervision The AnaSense® runs a chemical analysis based on a proprietary acid/base titration. From the obtained titration volumes, respectively the concentrations are calculated and displayed on the controller screen: All actions and logs of the AnaSense® are controlled by the industrial PC. The incorporated software exibility minimizes physical operator intervention. The analyzer screen (the client) can remotely be taken over by means of LAN Ethernet software (such as VNC software). Authorized users can carry...
