Anaergia Inc., a global technology leader known for developing energy from municipal, industrial, and agricultural sectors will initiate the construction of the biogas facility in order to convert farm waste and food waste into renewable energy. Anaergia will use its advanced solid waste processing and wastewater treatment technology in Yabu City’s facility.
