UK Government Champions Biomethane Energy Transition to Transform Clean Power Future
The biomethane energy transition received unprecedented government backing last week (in December 2024) as Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Energy Miatta Fahnbulleh MP unveiled ambitious plans for green gas development at a landmark industry conference. Speaking at the Anaerobic Digestion and Bioresources Association (ADBA) event in London, the Minister detailed how UK renewable gas investment […]
Using Algae and Nanoparticles to Clean Biogas: A Green Revolution in Energy?
Is it possible to utilising algae and nanoparticles for a natural form of biogas purification to move anaerobic digestion technology in another step forward in the eco-friendly energy revolution. In a fascinating development in renewable energy, scientists have found a way to use algae and microscopic particles to transform raw biogas into high-quality biomethane. This […]
How Upgrading Biogas to Biomethane Works
How upgrading biogas to biomethane works, in other words, making the transition from biogas, which is at first raw, to biomethane (purified, biologically produced, methane), that is essential for the most valuable sustainable use of the energy. The raw biogas that bubbles up out of the liquid in the digester tank contains unwanted impurities such […]
How Microplastics in Wastewater Disrupt Anaerobic Digestion and Threaten Sludge Treatment
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 […]
Net Zero with Huge Net Savings: ADBA Shows Biogas Powering Lower Bills
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. They have found that net zero cost could be drastically reduced if they stopped ignoring the potential of maximising “green gas” from biogas. In this their latest PR they explain […]
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 […]
Sensory Testing of CO2: Comparing Traditional Sources and Biogas Carbon Capture
Comparing Biogas Carbon Capture with Conventional Sources for Sensory Evaluation of CO2: Is Biogenic CO2 Really Good Enough to Put the Fizz in our Drinks? The global push for sustainability has led to the rise of innovative technologies, including biogas carbon capture, which provides a renewable source of CO2. However, not all CO2 is created […]
The Synergy Between Home Biogas Plants and Solar Panels: A Sustainable Energy Solution
Integration of Home Biogas Systems and Solar Photovoltaics: An Eco-Friendly Energy Alternative Harnessing renewable energy is a cornerstone of sustainable living. The combination of a home biogas plant and solar panels creates a complementary system that maximizes energy efficiency while reducing environmental impact. This article explores the unique synergy between these technologies and how they […]
Top Benefits of Anaerobic Digestion You Should Know
Key Advantages of Anaerobic Digestion You Should Understand Ever thought about how farms and businesses handle their organic waste sustainably and make renewable energy? The secret is anaerobic digestion. This natural process turns organic waste (also known as biomass and biosolids) into biogas and brings many environmental and operational perks. Curious? Let’s dive into the […]
Fibrous Biogas Digestate Enhancement and Treatment Techniques
Digestate Fibre – Current Uses, Future Potential, and Treatment Innovations Fibrous digestate (also known as digestate fibre) is a byproduct of the anaerobic digestion (AD) process, where organic materials decompose in the absence of oxygen to produce biogas and a nutrient-rich residue. It emerges in the form of a slurry of water with dissolved soluble […]
Urgent Need for Methane Mitigation from Solid Waste Landfill – COP29 1.5°C target
Strategies for Reducing Solid Waste-Related Methane Emissions Including Promoting the Concept that Climate Funds be Used to Fund it Methane from solid waste in landfills is a key greenhouse gas affecting our climate. By studying emissions from landfills and other large waste-related emitters, we can find ways to reduce their impact. Make no mistake the […]
