Morenci Circularity Center

About the project

The Morenci Circularity Center in Morenci, Michigan, utilizes one large digester to convert methane released from dairy manure into renewable natural gas each year. The RNG generated at Morenci is injected into the nearby Rover pipeline. Developed in partnership with Chevron, this center is now fully operational.

Project benefits

GHG REDUCTIONS

This project reduces emissions by an average of over 27,000 tons of CO2eq annually. That is equivalent to planting more than 35,000 acres of forest per year.

RESOURCE RECOVERY

Recovering and processing manure from the farms prevents excess nitrogen and phosphorus from escaping into local air and water, reducing phosphorus runoff alone by 60%.

“Adding an anaerobic digester is just the latest sustainability upgrade we’ve made at SunRyz. We’re always looking for ways to reduce costs and be good stewards of the environment at the same time. Brightmark gave us an opportunity to do just that with this project. ”

– Jordan den Dulk, Case Ryzebol, SunRyz Dairy
