dryQUBE
 

The dryQUBE is an anaerobic dry digester that provides a cost-effective solution to your fibrous agricultural waste.

Batch dry digestion is suitable for high lignocellulose agricultural crops, where wet digestion and stirring of feedstock is not viable.

Possible agri-waste feedstocks for dryQUBE:

  • Rice Straw Bagasse

  • Silage Wheat & Rape Straw

Any other high lignocellulose agri-waste

Tackling Delhi's Smog Crisis: Turning Rice Straw Waste into Clean Energy Solutions

The Challenge: In India, rice straw burning has long been a concerning practice, leading to severe air pollution and health hazards in regions surrounding Delhi. The burning of 60% of the 126.6MT of rice straw produced annually results in substantial GHGs emissions, soil nutrient loss, and biodiversity degradation.

Our Solution: At Qube, we believe in turning challenges into opportunities. We're excited to introduce a pioneering technology that converts rice straw into biogas – a sustainable and renewable energy source. This innovation paves the way for producing valuable by-products like cooking gas, electricity, bioCNG, and a nutrient-rich fertilizer, all while significantly reducing air pollution.

The Impact: Our technology is more than just an environmental remedy; it's a new economic avenue for farmers, transforming a waste product into a valuable resource. We're committed to fostering a win-win scenario for the environment and the agricultural community.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The modular dryQUBE solution is quick to install, taking only 2 weeks to erect.

Once loaded with feedstock, the dryQUBE is irrigated with liquid digestate and begins to produce biogas.

The biogas can be used for cooking, hot water, electricity generation or bioCNG vehicle fuel.

After a 60–90 day retention time, the digestate can be used as a fertiliser and the dryQUBE is refilled with a new batch of feedstock.

dryQUBE is available in various sizes with optional ancillaries:

  • Biogas treatment pods to clean and dry raw biogas

  • Biogas storage

  • Biomethane upgraders for bioCNG

  • Combined heat and power biogas generators (CHP)

  • Biogas boilers

  • Control system with remote access 

  • The QUBE App
