In Eco Green Park we can also learn about it. A natural process called anaerobic digestion creates biogas. Anaerobic digesters are closed systems that harness this natural process to produce biogas and other useful coproducts. These systems also reduce odors, pathogens, and waste.  The resulting gas will be used as a small power plant at the farm site.
