Participants will learn about Vanguard Renewables' unique partnerships and how its technology converts biogas into renewable natural gas (RNG), electricity, and tons of environmental benefits. You will also learn about some of the challenges of recycling food waste to fight global warming and the science of anaerobic co-digestion.
