LysteMize Digestion of Livestock Waste: Lystek announces research project with support from Natural Resources Canada
Summary
The project will evaluate the suitability of various animal manures and organics from farms in southern Ontario as feedstocks for the LysteMize anaerobic digestion (AD) process to produce renewable energy. Dr. Kati Bell, Managing Director of Water Strategy, Brown and Caldwell ConsultingLysteks patented and proven commercial Thermal Chemical Hydrolysis Process, Lystek THP\xae, uses a proprietary combination of high shear mixing, low-pressure steam (75\xb0C), and alkali addition to hydrolyze organic substrates and make them more amenable to microbial digestion in anaerobic environments. We are exceedingly optimistic about the prospect of bringing cost effective and easy to operate solutions to a wider range of users to help build the circular economy and reduce GHG emissions in Canada and abroad. The LysteMize Livestock Waste Characterization Study is expected to finish in 2027 and will provide the knowledge base required to advance the application of Lysteks LysteMize Digestion technology across the livestock waste sector.Lystek International, a division of the Tomlinson Group of Companies, is North Americas leading provider of Thermal Hydrolysis solutions for the sustainable management of biosolids and organics, servicing over 60 public and private customers. Lystek THP\xae converts biosolids and non-hazardous organic residuals into a high-solids liquid, multi-use product for full cycle resource recovery.
