SYNOPSISIntroduction Milestone Statistics Policies BAI Experience Comparative cost of Digester Biogas models Current Program

INTRODUCTIONLivestock is considered socially and politicallysignificant in the Philippines; In January 30, 1930 BAI was created by virtue ofRA 3639 and is mandated to oversee thedevelopment of livestock, poultry and dairyindustries. 9 production and research centers all over thecountry Have offspring specialized numerous offices

MILESTONE OF BIOGASTECHNOLOGY70’s – BAI implemented a biogas project andinstalled nearly 400 floating dome type digester; 90’s – introduction of Tubular PolyethyleneDigester (TPED); 2000’s – development of High DensityPolyethylene Digester (HDPED) and ScalablePolyethylene Drum Digester (SPEDD) 2015 – Secretary Alcala signed AO #2 s 2015 –creation of the National Animal Waste ResourceManagement Program (NAWRMP)

STATISTICS The population of the Philippines is projected toreach 120M in 2050; 150 kg of rice5 doz of eggs (1 layer per 5 persons) (24M layers)14 kg of meat and poultry (pig 1:8) (broiler 4:1)15-25kg of fish20 kg of fruit43 kg vegetable

Swine 13.5 million pigs,69% is found in the smallhold sector/backyardfarmers with 50 heads holding. The swine industry, which accounted for 80% of totallivestock production registered a 2.72% growthduring the year. The top three producing regions are Regions III, IV-Aand VI with region VI having the most backyardinventory and region III topping the population incommercial farms (BAS, 2014) Sources:Feasibility Study of a National Biogas Progrmme on Domestic Biogas in the Philippines,SNV and Winrock International, 2010 .The Philippine Livestock and Food Processing Waste Initiative of the Methane to MarketsPartnership, USEPA, 2009.

POLICIES Philippine Energy Plan (PEP) is one of Energy Independenceand focuses on attaining a sustainable 60.0 percent energy selfsufficiency beyond 2010 through alternative fuels.Republic Act (RA) 8749 Philippine Clean Air Act of 1999 - setsgoals for the reduction of GHG emissions in the country usingpermissible standards and control strategies.RA 9275 known as “Clean Water Act of 2004” - aims to protectthe country’s water bodies from pollution from land-basedsources (industries and commercial establishments, agricultureand community/household activities). It is later amended toutilized process water for agricultural irrigation andlandscaping in times of water scarcity.

POLICIES The Renewable Energy Act of 2008 - aims to further increaserenewable energy utilization in the country, including biogas.The law provides for income tax holidays, duty free importationof equipment, 0% VAT, among other things.Presidential Decree (PD) 984 known as Pollution Control Decreeof 1976 to prevent, abate and control pollution of water, air andland for the more effective utilization of the resources of thiscountry.RA 9003 Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000ensures the protection of public health and environment throughthe adoption of a systematic, comprehensive and ecologicalwaste management program.

COMPARATIVE COST

MITIGATION PRACTICES

TUBULAR POLYETHYLENE DIGESTER(TPED)Four units of Plastic tubedigester were installed at thepiggery in Soro-soro, Batangasto suit the farmer’s needs

HIGH DENSITY POLYETHYLENE DIGESTER(HDPED)The HDPED gives you the flexibility tofabricate desired size and length; durableand resilience hence reduce maintenanceand downtime

SCALABLE POLYETHYLENE DRUMDIGESTER (SPEDD)Design for micro users.

STACKED DOME DIGESTERHigher operating pressure thus moreversatile; compact and high efficiency dueto the mechanical stirrer

Brooding Lamp Mantle Lamp Commercial Oven Converted stove Generator Water pump Biogas Rice cooker

Opps!
