Building Steel Reinforced Concrete Retaining Walls at Biogas Plants
As more biogas plants are constructed, the idea of constructing steel-reinforced concrete retaining walls is becoming more crucial. Space can be minimal, especially when AD plant owners decide to add additional digester tanks to existing tank farms. Using a retaining wall is often the only way in which AD plants can be squeezed onto the […]
Mandatory Separate Food Waste Segregation For All UK Businesses Set By 2026
Food waste is not just a problem with a few plate scrapings; it’s a global challenge impacting our environment dramatically. With years of experience in separate food waste segregation, particularly focusing on sustainable waste management practices, I’ve seen firsthand how mismanagement of food waste can exacerbate climate change issues. This blog draws from extensive research […]
Digester Remediation: Blame Game Must Stop for Failing Farm Biogas Plants
Remediating digesters when commissioning new plants fails, is becoming a crisis in which disputes over liability are all too common. In this article, we have to report a lack of willingness among some suppliers to sort out teething problems that are in danger of leading the whole industry into disrepute. Ladies and Gentlemen, Farmers, and […]
Opuntia Prickly Pear Cactus: A Promising Energy Crop for Biogas Production in Semi-Arid Areas
Finding renewable energy sources for dry, challenging climates can be tough. Did you know the Opuntia Prickly Pear Cactus holds promise as an innovative biofuel producer? This blog will explore how this resilient plant could transform biogas production in semi-arid regions. Keep reading to uncover a desert treasure turning waste into energy! Key Takeaways Potential […]
10 Facts About Anaerobic Digestion: Unlocking the Power of Waste
Read on for our list of 10 true facts about anaerobic digestion and transforming trash into treasure. We “air” a topic about a process that surprisingly doesn’t need air (oxygen); in fact, the truly anaerobic microorganisms that do the work die if exposed to air! and would be just as happy on the moon. Imagine […]
Is Biogas Renewable? Unveiling The Truth Behind Its Sustainability
Many people ask, is biogas renewable? It is mostly methane (a severe greenhouse gas) and when it is burned, it creates carbon dioxide (the gas we are told is the main culprit behind climate change!). So, isn’t the truth behind its sustainability that the whole idea of renewable biogas is pure greenwash? Read on to […]
How Does an Anaerobic Digester Work
How Does an Anaerobic Digester Work? A thorough overview of the process that makes biogas Anaerobic digesters play a crucial role in waste management by breaking down organic waste into biogas and digestate. Imagine that you are at home among the day’s leftovers and garden trimmings. You might think this is just waste, but what […]
Food Waste Anaerobic Digestion: A Comprehensive Guide
Dive into the world of food waste anaerobic digestion and learn how it tackles this pressing waste problem while powering our world in a greener way. Read more about the anaerobic digestion of food waste here now! Food waste isn’t just messy; it’s a growing environmental headache and a squander of resources that hits us all in […]
UK Dry Anaerobic Digestion May Soon Come to England – GMCA to Support New AD System
Introduction to a Groundbreaking Initiative! The Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) Waste and Recycling Committee has recently taken a bold step towards adopting an alternative anaerobic digestion process technology that could extend the biowaste management sector in England to many dry organic wastes not hitherto considered useful for energy production. With approval to commission the […]
Digester Mixers by Landia Raise Biogas Production While Revamping a Troublesome AD Plant
Once again digester mixers installed by Landia have turned out to be a crucial component for success when taming a troublesome AD facility. Let’s have a natter about a proper success story. I’m talking about Eco Verde Energy’s (EVE) revamp at their Anaerobic Digestion (AD)+ plant in Holton, Suffolk. Now, this isn’t just any old […]
Finding the Right Feedstock for Anaerobic Digestion Plants
The Challenge of Securing Adequate Feedstock for AD Plants to Secure Initial Capital Funding and During Operation Anaerobic digestion (AD) plants plays a crucial role in the renewable energy landscape, producing biogas through the digestion of organic waste feedstock. However, one of the major challenges in developing and sustaining AD facilities is finding the right […]
Separate Food Waste Collections Mandatory in England by 2026
It might seem obvious that it’s way beyond the time for English local authorities to implement separate food waste collections (SFWCs). Wales and Scotland have been doing it successfully for 7 years. Now, at last, weekly SFWCs are set to become a legal requirement for all English LAs by 2026. The government’s implementation of food waste […]
Research and Development (R&D) Tax Credits for UK Biogas Plant Operators – Are You Claiming Yours?
According to many tax experts, the UK AD industry frequently misses out on R&D tax credits that are available to UK biogas plant operators and which go unclaimed. Are you sure that your business is claiming all the R&D tax credits to which you are entitled? No two biogas plants are ever built quite the […]
To The Moo-n: Using Cow Dung From A Biogas Plant – The AD Process Fuels Japan’s Space Ambitions
Yes. You heard it here first! Cow dung rocket fuel, which is the feed for a biogas plant (using the process of anaerobic digestion), has been used in a successful test to fuel Japan’s space ambitions. Imagine getting the fuel for rockets not from complicated chemicals but from something as simple as cow dung. Yes, […]
