Anaerobic Digestion
Digester Tankage
Today, we discuss the topic of digester tankage, otherwise known as anaerobic digestion tanks. Small Home/ Domestic Biogas Digester Tankage In this article, we start at the smallest scale of anaerobic digestion plant tankage, those being for single houses up to community-scale AD plants. Although time-honoured designs of buried AD plants, constructed in masonry, remain […]
Concrete vs Steel Biogas Tanks for Anaerobic Digestion Plants
Concrete vs steel biogas tanks and which is the best material for Anaerobic Digestion Plants is the subject of this page, based on a Press Release provided by the precast concrete manufacturer Whites Concrete. We refer to precast concrete units made and cured in the factory versus steel biogas tanks fabricated from mild steel panels […]
UK Net Zero Strategy 2021 Undervalues Biogas Decarbonisation
The UK government has published their UK Net Zero Strategy (2021) but it sadly underestimates the extent of the decarbonisation that full development of the UK biogas industry can provide. That’s the view of the UK’s anaerobic digestion industry association. So, let us give you the bigger picture before you read the press release provided […]
What is Industrial Load Testing?- What it Means to Biogas Plant Operators
In this article, we have set out to explain industrial load testing, and realise it or not, it means that Biogas Plant Operators have one less hazard and one less headache to worry about. Read on and find out how industrial load testing ensures that the heavy equipment used at anaerobic digestion facilities can stand […]
Renewable Coal (Biocoal) Using Non-Liquid Residue from Agricultural AD Plants
A process for the formation of “Renewable Coal” or “biocoal” (Renewable Natural Coal from the Waste Output of a Cattle/Agricultural based Biogas Plant) has been patented following research by Ankit Patil. Ankit is an entrepreneurial young scientist and former student of Vincent Palloti College of Engineering. He has a masters degree from St Petersburg Polytechnic […]
US Dairy Farm Anaerobic Digestion – Rare US Vanderhaak Farm Case Study
US Dairy Farm Anaerobic Digestion is growing again. Anaerobic digesters are being utilised by certain US dairy farms and animal businesses to generate biogas and fertilizer from their manure. Some even create bedding material for their stock from the fibrous digestate output. They accomplish this by enclosing their manure holding ponds (also known as manure […]
Value of Biogas for Decarbonization Recognized – WBA COP26 Blue Zone Presence Announced
In a stunning move, the value of biogas for global decarbonization has been recognized by COP26 organizers. The WBA has beaten many other applicants to have a stand in the “inner circle” called the “Blue Zone” at COP26. That bodes well for a high COP26 profile for anaerobic digestion and biogas and the truly beneficial […]
