Description
UGI Energy Services (UGIES), a subsidiary of UGI, a natural gas and electric power distribution company, is part of MBL Bioenergy, a joint venture together with Sevana Bioenergy and a subsidiary of California Bioenergy (CalBio). MBL Bioenergy is developing three clusters of dairy manure waste-to-RNG projects in South Dakota. The Brookings Biogas RNG facility was located close to three farms near Estelline, South Dakota. At full capacity, the facility is set to generate approximately 300 million cubic feet of RNG annually.
Products Used
As part of the collaboration, Penetron provided the necessary test data to Poet Design & Construction and Brooks Construction to confirm the 1% dosage rate for PENETRON ADMIX SB, a crystalline waterproofing admixture. Delivered in pre-measured soluble bags, the admixture was added to the mix during the batching phase to treat about 2,000 yds3 of concrete used for the digester tanks.
Once added to the concrete mix, PENETRON ADMIX SB reduces concrete permeability, increases chemical resistance, and enables the self-sealing of any new or future hairline cracks – enhancing durability and extending the service life of the Brookings facility’s concrete digester tanks.
