The Department of Science and Technology, in its pursuit to contribute to the government's efforts to climate change adaptation, has funded the construction of a fixeddome biogas digester in the municipal abattoir of Baler, Aurora. The digester has a loading capacity of 20 cubic meter. The manure gathered from the holding area for large ruminants and pigs will be loaded into the digester. Through the process of anaerobic fermentation, these wastes will produce biogas, a colorless, odorless gas composed primarily of methane and carbon dioxide.
