The raw biogas that bubbles up out of the liquid in the digester tank contains unwanted impurities such as water and carbon dioxide, a trace of hydrogen sulphide, and more. So to produce a product containing only methane (just like natural gas) is a technological feat. However, today it is being accomplished in increasing quantities, and the resulting gas is known as biomethane [...] - [How Microplastics in Wastewater Disrupt Anaerobic Digestion and Threaten Sludge Treatment](https://blog.anaerobic-digestion.com/microplastics-in-wastewater-disrupt-anaerobic-digestion/): In this article we report on new research that reveals how microplastics disrupt anaerobic digestion and threaten sludge treatment due to the increasing presence of these tiny plastic particles in sewage works sludge (known as biosolids). A recent study published in the Journal of Hazardous Materials highlights the detrimental effects of microplastics (MPs) on sludge anaerobic digestion processes. MPs, particularly polystyrene (PS), significantly inhibit microbial activity and enzymatic functions critical to hydrolysis, acidogenesis, acetogenesis, and methanogenesis. This leads to reduced methane production and decreased efficiency in sludge treatment. Mechanistically, MPs act as substrates for microbial enrichment, which lowers the abundance [...] - [Net Zero with Huge Net Savings: ADBA Shows Biogas Powering Lower Bills](https://blog.anaerobic-digestion.com/net-zero-cost-savings/): Biogas industry trade association ADBA has used the UK government treasury's own model to cost the investment needed to achieve Net Zero in the UK.
