Dairy resolves issues and produces power for the facility
Bettencourt Dairies discovered a solution that would allow them to resolve the odor and methane issues, while also producing power for the facility and the local grid. Six one-million-gallon anaerobic digesters were installed at Rock Creek Dairy to process manure and mitigate odors. Approximately 200,000 gallons of cow manure are collected daily, pumped through a nearly mile-long pipeline to the digesters and processed into clean compost used for animal bedding. It’s the largest facility of its kind in the country.
