Among other things, hydrogen experts can assist with hydrogen fuel cells that produce electricity by combining hydrogen and oxygen atoms. The hydrogen reacts with oxygen across an electrochemical cell similar to that of a battery to produce electricity, water, and small amounts of heat. Many different types of fuel cells are available for a wide…

Anaerobic Digesters: Methane Formation. The inter-microbial distances influence the biodegradation rates and specific growth in the formation of Methane. The microorganisms that form methane are physiologically. They can grow only with a few specific substrates, such as H2 and CO2, formate, methanol and acetate, and they therefore depend on other. Therefore, a syntrophic relationship is key…
Livestock feed evaluation? Livestock producers are constantly in search of ways to improve the economics of their operations. One effective way of realizing improved economics is to incorporate new ingredients into the feeding operation. In this venture, producers must be careful to make certain they are familiar with the new ingredient and fully aware of…
A significant portion of biofuels co-products are in the area of animal feed – often livestock feeding. This naturally raises the question as to whether there is a difference between animal-grade and human-grade food ingredients? From a strict, regulatory standpoint, the rules promulgated by the FDA are similar, but different. Human food rules are listed…
