Biogas Research Directory
This page is a clearing house for completed biogas-related research projects. Today, it has 1,246 funded and completed projects from the USDA Research, Education, and Economics Information System (REEIS) database. You can see all of them here. Since it’s not easy to browse that many projects, we’ve divided them into small groups using the 13 categories and 315 keywords you see below. We owe a big thanks to our friends at USDA and BIOFerm without whom this tool would not be available.
How to use this tool:
Simply browse through the categories and click on the keywords for related projects you want to explore. You will see the results of a live search of the USDA REEIS database for biogas and anaerobic digester research projects that use that keyword. To find ALL THE DETAILS for a given project, click on the “Project Title” and you’ll be taken to a page for that project. If you’d like to conduct your own search, click on any of the links below and modify the text in the “Search these terms” box. You can also modify the fields that are displayed.
