Alternatives to Natural Gas – Listed with Pros and Cons for Each
Explore alternatives to natural gas like electrification, biogas, green hydrogen, and geothermal energy. Each option offers unique benefits and drawbacks in sustainability and cost. Transitioning away from finite fossil fuels is essential as we aim for net-zero targets, with options from Inspire Clean Energy to assist…
Hydrophilic Jointed “Sealwall” Tanks Better Than Other Precast-Concrete or Steel, Say Whites Concrete
Whites recommend the use of their Liquid Holding Tanks and in particular their Hydrophilic Jointed “Sealwall” Tanks as being better than steel and even better than other jointing methods. After intensive in-house development, they point out that their Sealwall precast wall unit system is a robust, precast solution for storing water. It has all the […]
Managed Services for Construction Businesses – Outsourcing IT for Biogas EPC Contractors
It’s quite likely that biogas EPC contractors reading this could benefit from engaging managed services for construction businesses. Recent reports all say the same thing: it’s time for construction contractors to wake up. As a group, our industry is famous for being slow to adopt new technology. We are lagging behind on modern IT services […]
How Anaerobic Digestion Reduces Landfill Reliance — and Why It’s Better Than Incineration for a Circular Future
Anaerobic digestion (AD) is remarkable for its ability to reduce landfill reliance by diverting organic waste from landfills, where it would otherwise release methane, and transforming it into valuable products like renewable biogas and fertiliser. Read on and find out how it gets even better, because this process significantly decreases the volume of waste sent […]
What is Industrial Load Testing?- What it Means to Biogas Plant Operators
In this article, we have set out to explain industrial load testing, and realise it or not, it means that Biogas Plant Operators have one less hazard and one less headache to worry about. Read on and find out how industrial load testing ensures that the heavy equipment used at anaerobic digestion facilities can stand […]
Biogas vs Solar vs Wind for Farms: Which Renewable Energy Option Is Best?
Discover which renewable energy option is best for your farm with our comprehensive comparison of biogas vs solar vs wind for farms. Explore costs, sustainability, and environmental impacts.
Renewable Coal (Biocoal) Using Non-Liquid Residue from Agricultural AD Plants
A process for the formation of “Renewable Coal” or “biocoal” (Renewable Natural Coal from the Waste Output of a Cattle/Agricultural based Biogas Plant) has been patented following research by Ankit Patil. Ankit is an entrepreneurial young scientist and former student of Vincent Palloti College of Engineering. He has a masters degree from St Petersburg Polytechnic […]
Electricity Demand Response in the Biogas Industry: Why It Hasn’t Taken Off (and Likely Won’t)
Electricity Demand Response (EDR) was 10 years or so ago touted as a big opportunity for renewable power generation and that included within biogas circles, but that was when most digesters generated electricity and was before “upgrading” became the big thing. In theory it would be used by biogas plant operators, it allows energy producers […]
U.S. Rules for Clean Hydrogen Production Tax Credit: A Global Perspective
Final Rules for the Clean Hydrogen Production Tax Credit Announced by the U.S. Treasury: An International View. These new rules are expected to benefit the AD industry globally because they promise to boost biogas hydrogen production raising the demand for it, and the increasing financial reward for those that generate it. The U.S. Department of […]
Tips for Efficient Manure Management and Avoiding Fugitive Methane Emissions
Strategies for Effective Manure Management while Mitigating Fugitive Methane Emissions Did you know that livestock emissions cause about 32% of methane emissions from humans? Methane is 80 times more harmful than carbon dioxide for warming over 20 years. As a farmer, you’re key in fighting climate change. By managing manure well and using organic fertilisers, […]
COP29 Declaration on Organic Waste a Pivotal Moment for Biogas
The much maligned COP29 event this November, and the “COP29 Declaration on Organic Waste” may eventually prove to be a pivotal moment, a breakthrough, for the full development of anaerobic digestion and biogas production globally. As the world confronts alarming projections for climate change, the COP29 Declaration on Organic Waste will be a much needed […]
Zoo Biogas – Why Every Zoo Should Have an AD Plant?
To produce zoo biogas for sustainable waste management and energy revenue makes a great deal of sense in a world seeking ways to fight climate change. The fact is that, zoos produce a lot of organic waste which is ideal for renewable energy production in a “biodigester” or anaerobic digestion facility. Just visit any of […]
