Centerville Circularity Center

About the project

The Centerville Circularity Center in Centerville, Iowa, includes the construction of one new anaerobic digester on the Black Soil Dairy Farm. The manure from this farm will produce renewable natural gas each year. After the center is complete, the biogas generated by this manure will be captured, cleaned, and converted into RNG, which can be used as transportation fuel, industrial heating, and a host of other applications. Centerville is part of the third tranche of projects developed under the Brightmark RNG Holdings LLC joint venture with Chevron U.S.A. Inc.

Project benefits

GHG REDUCTIONS

Annually, this project reduces an average of over 21,000 tons of CO2eq. That is equivalent to more than 25,000 acres of forest per year.

RESOURCE RECOVERY

Recovering and processing manure from the farms will prevent excess emissions from escaping into the local air and water.

WASTE TO NEW PRODUCTS

The facility will generate renewable natural gas each year.

“This project is a win-win for our farm—we’re looking forward to the new value stream we’ll get from our manure, and Brightmark has been a solid partner from day one.”

– Nate Zuiderveen, Owner of Black Soil Farm
