Farm Digesters and Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions
In this article, we discuss Farm Digesters and the Role of Biogas in the Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions. What are the Benefits of Farm Digesters? Farmers and the local community can benefit greatly from on-farm digesters. Farmers may use digesters to better control nutrients, reduce odours and methane emissions, and increase farm profitability. Dairy, […]
Biogas Plant Grit Removal Systems to Extract Digester Grit and Silt from AD Plants
In this article, learn about the Biogas Plant Grit Removal Systems needed to extract digester grit and silt from AD Plant reactor tanks. On This Page: Why Biogas Plants Need Grit Removal Traditional Biogas Plants Lack Pretreatment for Grit Removal Grit Removal from Digester Output (Digestate) Options for De-gritting (Grit Removal) Upstream of Digester Tanks […]
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 […]
Renewable Natural Gas Transport – Use of Biogas for Vehicle Fuel
There are many benefits in the use of renewable natural gas transport using biomethane from the anaerobic digestion process. Rather than deliberately extracting natural gas trapped in the ground, this green gas makes use of resources already present in our surroundings. RNG may be produced from current resources using advanced gas clean-up technology, resulting in […]
Biogas Compressor – Purposes, Design and Suppliers
We thought that we would write about the biogas compressor, its purposes within an anaerobic digestion plant. Plus, design requirements and suppliers. Biogas is an environment-friendly energy source. It is a product that is quite new and there is a growing market for the specialized corrosion resistant compressors required. The essential features sought in compressors for […]
Methane Combustion Pledge to Reduce CH4 Emissions 1/3 by 2030 Praised
What is in effect a methane combustion pledge to reduce massively climate-damaging anthropogenic methane emissions is the excellent news announced on the run-up to the COP26 Climate Change talks in Scotland next month. Why is Methane Combustion Preferred to Methane Emission? Methane combustion with the utilization of heat is preferred to reduce the climate change […]
Anaerobic Digestion & Biogas Potential Neglected in 2020 UK Report Failure
Not for the first time “biogas potential has been neglected” – we reported in August 2020. An influential Think-Tank report has now been published by experts who should know better, and which completely misunderstands and ignores the full scope and potential of the anaerobic digestion and biogas industry “on the road to recovery”. Referring to […]
