New Anaerobic Digestion Plant: Starts, Opens or Commissioned in 2020
In this article, we list the new Anaerobic Digestion Plant (AD) project starts, openings or and plants process commissioned so far in 2020, and it is disappointingly low for such a promising technology. The anaerobic digestion of solid waste can only play its part in carbon reduction if many more biogas plants are started, built, […]
Anaerobic Digestion UK Food Waste News 2020
There are a number of news items that have been posted for a variety of UK food waste anaerobic digestion projects which show that Anaerobic Digestion UK is growing. This news seems to confirm the gradual growth of business in the AD sector. Iceland claims 23% food waste reduction in their first-ever report Iceland has […]
Food Waste Management Improved by Borger’s Salmon Crusher
The efficiency of food waste management is now improved by the installation of a Borger waste salmon “Multicrusher”. Situated in the midst of the Scottish Islands salmon fishery industry the efficiency and reliability of Borger’s equipment is vital to guarantee the correct shredding of waste salmon to meet environmental and food health security regulations. By […]

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 […]
UK Anaerobic Digestion Plants Exceed 100 And Hit Trouble: Looking Back
Looking back at our March 2013 article when UK Anaerobic Digestion Plants exceeded 100 and we thought they were hitting trouble, by causing environmental problems. With hindsight, (in November 2019) we can see that we were wrong. Yes, of course there have been teething problems with new biogas plant owners. Some started out, not appreciating […]

AD is in-truth an unhelpful name for the basic age-old natural process that produces renewable energy as heat and biogas, and at the same time makes a natural crop fertilizer. That, in a nutshell is basic anaerobic digestion, and how the AD (or fermentation) process works. How Does […]
Food Waste AD – The Anaerobic Digestion of Inedible Food for Energy and Natural Fertiliser
Food Waste AD is the short way to refer to the anaerobic digestion of inedible food for renewable energy and natural fertiliser. That sentence encapsulates the core philosophy of the movement towards food waste AD. “It’s a crying same that any food is wasted while so many people struggle to feed themselves.
