Drying Digestate from Biogas Plants – Fluidised Bed Fertiliser Advances
Drying digestate from biogas plants has major benefits. In the advanced TEMA Process™ a fluidised bed dryer dries the residual waste after digestion (the solid and fibrous (thick) portion of the digestate slurry). The mixed stream of the thick fraction and the concentrated thin fraction is dewatered to 70-75% Moisture Content. This is followed by […]
Screw Separation of Biogas Digestate is Now a Farm Favourite
Screw Separation of Biogas Digestate is a commonly used method of dewatering digestate. It uses mechanical pressure to separate organic fibres and larger particles from the liquid. The resulting liquid which flows out through the screen is usually suitable for use as a natural bio-fertiliser, for use on the farm. The exception to this can […]
How to Use Digestate from Anaerobic Digestion Plants in Agriculture
It’s not plain sailing to use digestate in agriculture, so we thought that we would explain how one farm uses their digestate in their agricultural business in the UK. Using Digestate from Anaerobic Digestion Plants in Agriculture Anaerobic digestion is a controlled biological process using biodegradable materials such as food waste and animal manures, to […]
16 Uses for Biogas Digestate Very Few AD Plant Owners Have Heard of
Biogas digestate it’s use, or disposal is often a vexed question for anaerobic digestion plant owners. Many consider their digestate (i. e. the solid and liquid AD Plant output) to be no more useful than for spreading on their fields. That may be a great use for it and will reduce chemical fertiliser bills. Some, such […]
5 Advantages of Digestate Separation Using Borger Bioselect Digestate Separator Technology
In this article, we identify the five top Advantages of Digestate Separation using the Borger Bioselect digestate separation technology, available from manufacturer Börger GmbH Borken-Weseke, Germany. Scroll down to see the list of the top advantages! Liquid/ Solid Separators (also known as screw separators) are a widely used separation technique for digestate separation in biogas plants […]
The Börger Bioselect Digestate Separator for AD Substrate Separation
The Börger Bioselect digestate separator has become a top choice for operators seeking solid/ liquid digestate separation, and all AD Plant operators need this technology at the outlets from their biogas reactors. When operators understand how outwardly simple the Boerger Bioselect BS 50 digestate separator is, it is not long before they come to accept […]
Sustainable NPK Fertiliser Technology Uses Digestate to Replace Non-renewable Alternatives
A new sustainable NPK fertiliser technology has been patented (using digestate) which makes a conventional NPK mineral fertiliser replacement tailored for customer’s fields. Not only does this technology utilise digestate fibre, but it also uses the carbon dioxide captured, either: during biogas upgrading to pure biomethane, or from the biogas engines used to generate electricity. […]
Digestate Drying – Does It Make Sense Environmentally and Economically?
Digestate drying might seem like a great way to make a natural/ sustainable fertiliser product but think of the large heat demand to dry such a high water content material (at often 90% water)… It has to be asked: “Does It make sense environmentally and economically to evaporate it until dry”? Digestate is a type […]
Digestate Separation Trailers and a New Breed of Contracting Businesses
Leading digestate separator manufacturer Borger UK hires out digestate separation trailers and is regularly visiting biogas plants in the UK to provide a digestate separation service for stored biogas plant output. This business is growing as UK agricultural and food waste biogas plants multiply. According to the trade association for the biogas industry (ADBA), there […]
