Sludge Digester Efficiency Raised at World-Class Nigg Wastewater Plant
Sludge Digesters are being used increasingly by water utility companies, and they can be important as energy providers in these times of high nonrenewable energy prices, so the fact that sludge digester efficiency has been raised significantly at a Wastewater Plant is significant. Scroll down to see the original Press Release from May 2019. The Need […]
Oil Shale Gas Advantages and Disadvantages vs Biogas
We did find one advantage of shale gas when considering oil shale gas advantages and disadvantages vs biogas! So, welcome to the great debate between oil shale gas, and biogas. As someone who has studied many difficult comparisons, I understand that every scenario has advantages and disadvantages. It’s no different when it comes to fossil […]
UK Anaerobic Digestion Plants Exceed 100 And Hit Trouble: Looking Back
In this article, we will look back at our March 2013 article when UK Anaerobic Digestion Plants exceeded 100 and were receiving damaging media attention due to novice operators causing some high-profile environmental problems. So, we reported that they were “hitting trouble”. The fact is that now (in 2023), with the benefit of hindsight, we […]
Join the Fight Against Climate Change with Rapid Biogas Deployment
Are you looking for a solution to the climate crisis? Look no further than anaerobic digestion (AD) and join the fight against climate change with rapid biogas plant deployment. The latest IPCC report has called for urgent action in adopting low-carbon technologies to help meet global warming targets, and AD has emerged as one of […]
Microplastic Contamination in Compost – Composted Green Waste vs Digestate
Microplastic contamination in compost is a problem now, and in geological timescales, all plastic in soils will be washed into the oceans, leading to yet more microplastics in the oceans. But which source of compost is worse for containing microplastics? Composted green waste or the digestate from anaerobic digestion? In this article, we compare both. […]
4 Anaerobic Digestion Regulations – UK Environmental Protection, Animal By-products, Duty of Care, Health and Safety
Anaerobic Digestion Regulations surprisingly, don’t exist in the UK. At least not all neatly bundled into a single government act or rule book. Instead, AD Plant operators must comply with a range of statutory requirements (“Laws” to you and me). The four main UK Anaerobic Digestion Regulations which must be tackled to ensure compliance once […]
