Energy360 creating renewable gas system for JBS Australia

In Australia, Energy360 are building a bioenergy system for JBS Australia, the country’s largest protein and food processing company, which will capture emissions from wastewater treatment and create a renewable gas system for their Beef City, QLD and Scone, NSW sites.

Energy360 will be providing custom designed bioenergy systems and installing covers on the in-situ wastewater treatment lagoons to capture the renewable gas generated and using it for process heat. This renewable gas will displace natural gas and provide both sites with significant natural gas cost savings and Greenhouse Gas (GHG) abatement, which will assist in JBS Australia achieving its Net Zero goal.

Following the completion of Energy360’s recent Front End Engineering Design (FEED) at both sites, the Bioenergy Systems will be delivered in the second half of 2023. Both projects will eliminate over 60,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide annually whilst saving on over A$2 million of natural gas usage.  

In addition to the renewable gas produced, Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs) will also be generated by these projects.
