CDM-Biogas-Networking in China
Promoted since 2005 with integrated expert staff supported through theGerman Centre for International Migration and Development CIMGTZ (www.cimonline.de), a CDM-biogas network has been establishedin China, where Chinese institutions and companies in cooperationwith European partners - are cooperating to obtain best practice biogasprojects and to gain experience in the development and implementationand monitoring of CDM-biogas activities:
University of Science and Technology Beijing Centre for Sustainable Environmental Sanitation
Chinese Academy of Agricultural Engineering / Hongyuan Energy and Environment Co., Ltd.
Oasis Technology and Development Co., Ltd. / UPM Environment Project Financing and Management Co, Ltd.

The CHP is the "dairy cow" of the
energy farmer!
A CHP must achieve abusiness share of at least 90-95% or 8 000 operationalhours / year for mostinstallations, so that thesystem works economically.
In other words: 3-4 weeksfailure make the efficiency ofthe plant in question.
Ignition jet injectors (coked,clogged, too often exchanged),
Leaks (water, oil), Turbo-charger broken, water
pump defective,
Incomplete biogas conditioning(filtering, cooling),
No sensors to determineoperating conditions.

Pumps and Stirrers If the fermenter content is not
optimally stirred, the gas yieldlowers.
In particular with high solidcontents significant floating
ceilings form within a very shorttime when insufficient stirred.
Stir is important for the heattransfer into the substrate.
Wear parts at agitators are allrotating parts. They must be easilyaccessible for maintenance andrepairs without having to leave thefermenter wholly or in part.
Entry of too longfibres,
High wearing,
Low performance,
Too weakdimensioned.

Construction and design quality
The repeatedly occurringbreakdowns and stoppagesover time due to: tank remediation (concrete),
tank emptying (sediment sand), tank emptying (repair of stirring
or heating technology),
disorder of biology,
failure of CHP with often weeks,
are the cause of inefficientdesign and construction ofmany biogas plants.
Concrete attacked byacids
Leaks (liquid, gas)
No coating of sensible
surfaces
Insufficient insulation

Operator qualification Economic success is
in question withoutwell-trained
operators. The contractors
should introduceoperators well into the
technology of theirinvestments.

Monitoring Methodology
Monitoring plan:
Monitor baseline emissions
Monitor project emissions Monitor leakages
Estimation and calculation of emission reductions
Address the uncertainty (data)
Quality assurance/Quality control Monitoring management
Designated system/human resourcesBe consistent with the algorithm/methodology used to estimate the Baseline andProject emissions

Quality assurance based on minimum
quality requirements to ensure the
successful operation of biogas plants.
1. The plant design2. Requirements for the components
3. Components with high requirements4. Operator qualification5. Quality assurance and control
8/8/2019 Mang Hangzhou October 2010
29/40
Targets of quality guidelines
1. The definition of quality guidelines and standards must includeprofessional and public opinions. These are constantly updated by anindependent quality committee.
2. Verifiable technology standards to create meaningful minimumrequirements.
3. Following the standards, the approval procedure by Government is easily.
4. Facilities for applying for funding.
5. Certification of construction or manufacturers companies should be basedon the quality guidelines and done by an independent test institute.
6. Guarantee and warranty transfer on product quality and function ofcomponents and engineering.
7. Ensure good maintenance and repair work. All wear parts must beaccessible to be repaired or replaced without significant limitation of theoperation.
8. Control of companies through regular review and recertification.

Advantages for equipment manufacturersand component suppliers
High decision security through standards.
Seal of approval increases the acceptance.
Internal operations are optimized.
Vulnerabilities are recognized and eliminated.
Return and reclamation costs are reduced.
8/8/2019 Mang Hangzhou October 2010
31/40
Benefits for plant operators and
investors Higher and tested design and construction quality.
Legal provisions are safely fulfilled.
Clearly defined contract and warranty conditions for plant
and components to proof the financial viability. Optimized process by defined procedures.
Each component is aligned into the system.
Longer lifetime through high quality material.
Less operational errors through streamlined workflows. Less downtime for repairs and maintenance.
Contractors must demonstrate and assure to the operatorsthat the systems works economically.
