Santa Cruz Wastewater Treatment Facility generates their own electric power by using internal-combustion engines which burn a mixture of methane gas produced by the sewage digestion process and purchased natural gas, producing 7.4  million kwH of electric power per year. In the conversion of solid wastes to high-efficiency fuel in this application, digestion plays a critical first step in producing raw biogas. For Santa Cruz Wastewater Treatment Facility, Sierra&#8217;s Immersible Thermal Mass Flow Meters deliver critical readings indicating exact digestive status while controlling the final step of precisely blending the cleaned and compressed biogas with natural gas. Using Sierra&#8217;s thermal meters to harness this alternative energy saves the wastewater treatment money in energy costs and the planet by preventing CO2 emissions from polluting the atmosphere.
