Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2019166694A1] The invention relates to a reactor for producing biogas from biomass using anaerobic digestion, which includes - a vertical channel-like frame (12) delimiting within itself a reaction space (14) within it for vertical plug flow of biomass (16), the frame (12) including at least three successive blocks (24) with related microbial strains, - feed equipment (25) arranged at the upper end (13.1) of the frame (12) for feeding biomass into the frame (12), - agitation equipment (20) for agitating biomass (16) and feeding microbes into biomass (16), arranged at least partly within the frame (12), - recovery equipment (22) for recovering generating biogas, - a bottom cone (17) connected to the lower end (13.2) of the frame (12) for collecting solid material, - removal equipment (27) for solid material arranged at the lower end (13.2) of the frame (12), at the lower end (92) of the bottom cone (17), for removing solid material, - an external skeleton (50) arranged outside the frame (12) for supporting the frame (12) externally against hydrostatic pressure generating within the frame (12).
