Description

The proposed project activity involves installation of a new Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (“UASB”) for wastewater treatment and biogas recovery at the Thai San Miguel Liquor (“TSML”) distillery (“TSML distillery”) located in Amphor Tha Muang, Kanchanaburi Province, Thailand. The proposed project activity is being implemented by the Papop Renewable Company Limited (“Papop”) as a builder, operator, transfer scheme, which will be handed over to TSML after a period of 9 years. TSML distillery produces alcohol spirits and as a part of the production process generates large amounts of wastewater, which has high organic matter content. Currently, wastewater is treated in an anaerobic lagoon and the anaerobic conditions lead to the production of biogas that is released directly to the atmosphere. The purpose of the proposed project activity is to use the biogas generated by the UASB for heat generation in the TSML boilers and for electricity generation in a newly installed engine. The electricity generated will be exported to the Thai national electricity grid. The proposed project activity will result in emission reductions from the avoidance of methane emissions from the anaerobic open lagoon, the avoidance of carbon dioxide emissions from the combustion of fuel oil in the TSML boiler and from the displacement of grid sourced electricity which includes fossil fuel based electricity generation. The estimated emission reductions are 87,990 tonnes of CO2e per year.
