Foam is a real messy, sticky, and smelly problem in biodigesters. Why is there foam in an anaerobic digester in the first place? Foam happens when these three things are true: 1. Gas bubbles form in a volume of liquid – there’s always gas bubbles. 2. A substance that traps gas bubbles is present on the surface of the liquid, i.e. surfactants. 3. An operational event hinders the bubbles from bursting in the digester. Surfactants on their own, or with long molecules, in the liquid digestate form the “skin” of the bubble. In the clip, we added soap, egg white, and oil to a cup of water. - The soap is an example of a chemical surfactant. - Egg white has long protein molecules and grease has long fat molecules, both of which can act like biosurfactants at high concentrations. As you can see, the bubbles stay at the top easily. Bubbles like this are not really an issue if the foam level doesn’t rise too much. But when we blow more bubbles and add more soap, the foam overflows and becomes a mess. Foam becomes an issue in anaerobic digesters when you get a sudden surge in gas production, sudden increase in surfactants on the surface, or both. Don’t let foam disrupt operations!
