Hartford Circularity Center

About the project

In Hartford, Michigan, the Hartford Circularity Center utilizes two anaerobic digesters to convert methane released from dairy manure into renewable natural gas each year. The RNG produced at Hartford is injected into the ANR Pipeline. Developed in partnership with Chevron, the center is now fully operational.

GHG REDUCTIONS

This project reduces emissions by an average of over 34,000 tons of CO2eq annually. That is equivalent to planting more than 45,000 acres of forest per year.

WASTE TO NEW PRODUCTS

Renewable products generated by the center include biofertilizer, digested dairy fiber for use as cow bedding or as a peat moss substitute, and irrigation water.

“One of my favorite parts of the job is implementing new technologies here on the farm that enable us to run more efficiently and improve the sustainability of our operations. I’m excited to get our anaerobic digestor up and running to see the positive impacts it will have on-farm operations.””

– Rudolf de Jong, Red Arrow Dairy
