US Dairy Farm Anaerobic Digestion – Rare US Vanderhaak Dairy Case Study
By 1945 my Grandpa had started milking about 500 milk cows. Nowadays, plus all our young stock we have about a thousand cattle. The dairy biogas plant processes the manure from those, plus food waste which we are paid a tipping fee for. Traditional Slurry Lagoons Produce an Alarmingly High Methane Output and are a […]
Renewable Natural Gas Transport – Use of Biogas for Vehicle Fuel
There are many benefits in the use of natural gas transport, even if the natural gas source is fossil fuel based. That’s because of the low-carbon emissions of this fuel and the clean burning characteristics of methane (natural gas). Currently, taxation on this form of fuel is very low, which for the moment is another […]
Biogas Compressor – Purposes, Design and Suppliers
We thought that we would write about biogas compressors, their purposes, design requirements and suppliers. It is a product which is quite new and there is a growing market for these specialized compressors. There is an increasing demand for greater sophistication in the design of biogas plants, now that the many benefits from anaerobic digestion are […]

How to Reduce Methane Emissions? – By Our Support of Agricultural Biogas Says Obama
In a very welcome move, the White House is backing farm biogas production from manure and other feedstocks, as a way to reduce national methane emissions which are implicated as a significant source of climate change. The US dairy industry not only came to the same conclusion in 2009, but has been working toward its […]
