METHOD FOR OPERATING A BIOGAS PLANT

The invention relates to a method for operating a biogas plant and to such a biogas plant, wherein the plant is optimized step by step with respect to a target parameter by an optimizing step comprising deflecting at least one control parameter and measuring the change in the target parameter that is caused by the deflection. Depending on the measured change in the target parameter, an optimizing step is calculated, comprising determining values for adjustable control parameters in such a way that, by setting the calculated control parameters to these values, the target parameter of the biogas plant is optimized in the direction of a prescribed target. The calculated values of the control parameters are set on the biogas plant. This optimizing step is repeated a number of times. In this way, a biogas plant or part or parts of a biogas plant can be automatically optimized quickly.
