Daily Mail “Slopbuckets Farce” Food Waste Collection Slur 10 Years On
Yes. It is 10 years since the Daily Mail described separate food waste collection as a “Slopbuckets Farce”. And, we can now look back on 10 years of progress in anaerobic digestion technology and operation since we announced that: “WRAP Defends Anaerobic Digestion from “Slopbuckets Farce” Food Waste Collection Slur“. We said: WRAP Defended Anaerobic […]
Waste Autoclave Pretreatment with Anaerobic Digestion for Household Waste
Waste Autoclave pretreatment of residual household waste, and food waste, for all its undoubted advantages in increased biogas yield from the organic fraction, during subsequent anaerobic digestion, has met with a difficult period. The process now has a poor reputation for safety. Since we originally posted our article on this subject in May 2012, the […]
Anaerobic Digestion in the US: 6 Federal and State Incentives and Funding
The use of biogas as an energy source is on the rise in the United States, due to both federal and state incentives and funding initiatives. Biogas is a renewable energy source produced from the decomposition of organic matter, such as food waste, manure, and other organic materials. In this blog article, we will explore […]
Anaerobic Digestion of Whey – The Proven Biogas Technology Solution
Disposing of unwanted whey from commercial dairies, was once a considerable problem. But, that was before recent developments in the anaerobic digestion of whey and biogas plant technology. Instead of a problem whey which is not for any reason suitable for food production has become an asset. During the anaerobic digestion process microorganisms break down […]
Food Waste Recycling Machine Raises Purity of Biogas Feed to a New Level
The modern Food Waste Recycling Machine is a new and innovative way to recycle food waste and to produce a pretreated biogas substrate. The machine can depackage food waste, separating it from other waste products. This makes it easier to recycle food waste and reduces the amount of waste that goes to landfill. The demand […]
Low Cost Faecal Sludge Management by Anaerobic Digestion Co-Disposal
Before discussing low-cost faecal sludge management and the role of Anaerobic Digestion Co-Disposal, let’s start by defining faecal sludge (also spelled “fecal”). What is Faecal Sludge Management? Thankfully, that’s easy. Wikipedia tells us: Fecal sludge management (FSM) (or faecal sludge management in British English) is the collection, transport, and treatment of fecal sludge from pit […]
CCC Net Zero & 2050 Climate Change Reduction is Too Late!
The CCC Net Zero Reporting update of 2022 is a major step towards the 2050 Climate Change Reduction Target. It is important to have anaerobic digestion as a part of the national effort in order to achieve the required level of GHG reduction. But, the target is too slow and unlikely even if achieved to […]
Six Reasons Anaerobic Digesters Are Not Green – Let’s be Honest
Anaerobic digestion systems doubters have published articles in which they claim 6 scientific reasons that they say show that Anaerobic Digesters are not “green”. Let’s be honest, if true, it would mean all those advocating the development of anaerobic digestion, with its biogas and other beneficial outputs, should think again. In this article, we admit […]
Hotel Food Waste Disposal – Off-Site Anaerobic Digesters No. 1 Choice
In this article, we make the case for off-site anaerobic digesters as the most sustainable option for Hotel Food Waste disposal. The hotel industry is a critical part of the economy of many nations and its sustainability is critical to its future. Even as long ago as 2008, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) […]

A Tomato Digester and How “Complete Idiots” Built It
A “tomato digester”, (a tomato grower’s greenhouse waste AD plant) and how “Complete Idiots” built it, is a story of success. How, from being, (in their own words) “idiots” grappling with biogas technology, they consistently applied the operating experience to plant improvement and expansion. And now, are at the point where AD provides a financially […]
Xergi Biogas Plants – 5 Advanced Plant Construction Themes
