Fibrous Biogas Digestate Enhancement and Treatment Techniques
Digestate Fibre – Current Uses, Future Potential, and Treatment Innovations Fibrous digestate (also known as digestate fibre) is a byproduct of the anaerobic digestion (AD) process, where organic materials decompose in the absence of oxygen to produce biogas and a nutrient-rich residue. It emerges in the form of a slurry of water with dissolved soluble […]
Unlocking the Potential of Digestate Fertilizer for Sustainable Farming
Farmers often spend too much on chemical fertilisers (also known as mineral fertilizers because they are mined from geological deposits). These can harm the soil and the environment. Finding a better way to grow crops is a big challenge. Digestate fertiliser from anaerobic digestion is a strong solution. It uses organic waste to make nutrients […]

Side Stream Ammonia Stripping from Biogas Digestate and 4 of Its Many Benefits
Learn about biogas digestate side stream ammonia stripping (better known to the uninitiated as “ammonia removal plus return the flow back where it came” and its many advantages. For years this amazing opportunity to raise profitability and bioreactor process stability has seldom been discussed. We decided to promote this simple technology and to do so […]
Responsible Digestate Storage and Optimizing the Use of the Fertiliser
Managing digestate storage can be tricky, and there is plenty of room for confusion given that digestate has two forms: liquid and solid fibres. One fact stands out: improper management of either can lead to environmental harm, but it is the liquid form that causes the most concern. This article will show you ways to store and manage liquid […]
Digestate Monitoring for Productive Biogas Plant Operation and Low Downtime
Very few people have written about digestate monitoring for productive biogas plant operation, but careful sampling and analysis of the digestion process is essential for any commercial anaerobic digestion process. It’s essential, to reliably achieve high methane yields and the lowest downtime periods. By referring to digestate monitoring in this article, we also make the […]
Anaerobic Digestate Fertilizer for Plant Nutrition in Agriculture
Anaerobic digestate fertilizer can be an important source of the essential elements of plant nutrition in agriculture. To put it simply: The sustainable renewable fertilizer made from the leftovers of the “decomposition process that doesn’t use oxygen” can be a key source of the vital nutrients plants need to grow in farming. For the agricultural […]
How to Improve Soil Health: The Planet Saving Role of Compost and Digestates
How to Improve Soil Health is a pressing concern. It was the subject of evidence Dr Jane Gilbert from Carbon Clarity gave oral evidence on behalf of CIWM to the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee at the House of Commons recently. Her presentation was provided with an emphasis on the value of compost and […]
Digestate from Anaerobic Digestion: A Valuable Nutrient-rich Liquid for Sustainable Agriculture
Using digestate from Anaerobic Digestion provides a valuable plant fertiliser. In fact, unlocking the potential of digestate is vital for the sustainability of the agriculture sector. There is nothing else quite as good when you take a holistic view of its many benefits. Digestate is a valuable nutrient-rich liquid produced from the process of anaerobic […]
Microplastic Contamination in Compost – Composted Green Waste vs Digestate
Microplastic contamination in compost is a problem now, and in geological timescales, all plastic in soils will be washed into the oceans, leading to yet more microplastics in the oceans. But which source of compost is worse for containing microplastics? Composted green waste or the digestate from anaerobic digestion? In this article, we compare both. […]
