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 […]

How to Reduce Methane Emissions – Using Agricultural and Waste Biogas
The question of how to reduce methane emissions is an important one. It is not fully appreciated that the science shows that the ONLY way to meet global temperature rise targets is to drastically reduce methane emissions now. This can be done by using tried and tested agricultural and waste sector biogas technology. No new […]
Improving Biogas Plant Efficiency – Why Ferrous Chloride Dosing Not Ferric Chloride is Best
Seeking to improve biogas plant efficiency and understanding why Ferrous Chloride, Not Ferric Chloride, is the best of the two as a dosing additive within a balanced biogas output-raising product. During a recent exhibition stand enquiry I was making, an expert from Lukeneder helped me understand this point. She explained the differences between Ferrous Chloride […]
Anaerobic Digestion of Dairy Manure in the US
The anaerobic digestion of dairy manure in the US is on a rising growth curve. Increased demand to lessen the environmental impact of fossil fuels has sparked significant interest in renewable fuels like biogas. Indeed, several US policy recommendations and rules in the areas of energy, the environment, and agriculture have been developed in the […]
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 […]
