How to Use Digestate from Anaerobic Digestion Plants in Agriculture
It’s not plain sailing to use digestate in agriculture, so we thought that we would explain how one farm uses their digestate in their agricultural business in the UK. Using Digestate from Anaerobic Digestion Plants in Agriculture Anaerobic digestion is a controlled biological process using biodegradable materials such as food waste and animal manures, to […]
3 Anaerobic Sludge Digestion Case Studies
These three anaerobic sludge digestion case studies explain how water utility companies are embracing the anaerobic digestion process as their method of choice for the treatment of the vast quantities of solid sludge materials which they aerate and settle out of the sewage entering their sewage works every day. While doing that they produce a […]
