The primary source for the following analysis is the Forest County Potawatomi Community (FCPC) Milwaukee Biodigester and Biogas Energy Cogeneration Facility. FCPC proposes to develop a 2-megawatt biogas cogeneration system in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The system would consist of a two or more continuous mix (or similar system) digester tanks, waste receipt facilities, holding and blending tanks, bio-solids processing facilities, biogas treatment and pressurization equipment, three 800-kilowatt engine generators. Heat from the generators would be captured and used to warm the digester tanks or dry bio-solids. The facility would be located on land owned by the FCPC. That land currently is used as a parking lot for the Potawatomi Bingo Casino.
