What is Biogas? A Beginners Guide – Home to Commercial Digester Systems
We answer the question: “What is Biogas?” Biogas is generated during anaerobic digestion (AD) when microorganisms break down (by eating it) organic materials in the absence of air (or oxygen). Biogas is mostly methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2), with very small amounts of water vapor and other gases. The carbon dioxide and other gases […]
How to Start Anaerobic Digestion of Plant Biomass – Biogas Pilot Trial Step by Step
How to start anaerobic digestion of plant biomass (waste organic materials you have available to you for free or at minimal cost) with an A.D. pilot plant experiment, sometimes called a Lab Trial. The following is the standard way research in water treatment processes has been carried out ever since the scientific method was invented […]
Landia Digester Mixing System Boosts Biogas Output by 20%
In his case study we explain how a Landia Digester Mixing System has raised all-important biogas output by 20%. This improvement has been maintained for over 2 years since installation and has enabled Downers Grove Wastewater Treatment Center to become 100 percent net energy neutral. Press Release (18 January 2020): Landia Digester Mixing System Increases […]
Biogas Tax Credits Announced for US AD Project Starts This Year
Biogas Tax Credits have been passed by Congress for Anaerobic Digestion (AD) projects which start development this year. At last the US seems to be beginning on the road toward reducing the imbalance in automatic tax subsidies still paid to the oil, coal and gas industries. Farmers across the US have a surplus of organic […]
Climate Emergency Declaration: Biogas Can Abate 12% of GHG Emissions by 2030
Climate Emergency Declaration by governments and communities is of little or no use unless it results in an action plan, so the Biogas and Climate Change Commitment Declaration must be unique. In this a group of highly respected organisations has declared that, used to its fullest, anaerobic digestion and biogas can abate 12% of global […]
Green Biogas – UK Green Investment Bank Backing Is Proof
We have said many times that the anaerobic digestion process makes green biogas, but where is the proof of that? We say that not only is it green in the sense of it being an environmentally friendly form of energy and fertilizer production, but it also has many other “green” environmental benefits. That green biogas […]
