Seaweed Anaerobic Digestion: Can Beach Strandings Be Turned into Biogas?
Large seaweed strandings can create serious odour and health problems as the biomass decomposes. Could collecting the seaweed and using anaerobic digestion turn a coastal nuisance into renewable biogas? This article examines the opportunity, including ensiling for year-round storage, salinity inhibition, hydrogen sulphide, silage liquor and the essential safety precautions needed when handling decomposing seaweed.
Biomass Anaerobic Digestion: From Organic Trash to Renewable Treasure
Biomass anaerobic digestion is all about turning organic waste into renewable treasure, an optimist would say, but you might equally describe it as recycling dead matter into usable energy. But however you describe it, developing renewable energy sources can help diversify energy supplies while recovering value from suitable organic materials. One promising solution lies in […]
