Costs of Anaerobic Digestion – Capital Cost per Cow Plus Electricity and Gate Fee Income
The Costs of Anaerobic Digestion are of course what everyone thinking of embarking upon a biogas project wants to know. At the same time very few AD Plant owners and contractors give out their costs to a general audience. Finding costs and income data is rare. That’s understandable due to the commercially sensitive nature of […]

UK Emissions Trading Scheme Fails to Provide Clear Path for Biogas and Biomethane: Biogas Potential Ignored
In the continuously evolving landscape of renewable energy and emissions control, the UK Government’s response to the consultation on the UK Emissions Trading Scheme (UK-ETS) throws into sharp relief the stark reality of policy disconnect with the globally burgeoning biogas sector. The Anaerobic Digestion and Bioresources Association (ADBA) has been left hanging by a thread […]
Comparing Substrate Feed Systems for Biogas Plants: WANGEN PUMPEN BIO-MIX & Progressive Cavity Pumps vs. Other Systems
Efficient and cost-effective substrate feed systems are essential for biogas plants to maximize their operations, so we thought that we would compare the substrate feed systems for Biogas Plants. In this article, we conduct a detailed comparison between BIO-MIX technology using WANGEN PUMPEN Progressive Cavity Pumps with the other systems currently offered. Introduction The […]
Rice Straw Biogas – How to Make Clean Fuel from Rice Crop Residues and Decarbonise
Biogas from rice straw (rice straw biogas production) is a proven technology that is still almost completely untapped. Around 300 million tonnes of waste rice straw is burnt in fields across Asia every year. Rice accounts for 48% of all greenhouse gas emissions from crops globally or 1,000 MT of CO2e/yr. Straw burning is producing […]
UK Anaerobic Digestion Industry Expresses Disappointment Over Government’s Climate Change Progress
The Anaerobic Digestion and Bioresources Association (ADBA) has again voiced its disappointment with the UK government’s lack of leadership and commitment to anaerobic digestion (AD), following the release of the Climate Change Committee’s latest progress report. The ADBA emphasizes that AD has the potential to significantly reduce the country’s greenhouse gas emissions, support the achievement […]
US Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) Program Biogas Industry Support Welcomed
Strong US Government support for Anaerobic Digestion and Biogas Technologies has now been confirmed within the “Renewable Fuel Standard Program”. According to the US EPA’s Renewable Fuel Standard Program (RFS), anaerobic digestion and biogas technologies provide a type of advanced biofuel that is produced from organic waste. These technologies have the ability to produce energy, […]
How Biogas is Produced from Waste: Making Clean Renewable Energy from Muck
We are hoping that you are looking for information on how biogas is produced from waste. We will explain that in just a moment. But, first, we ask you to pause for thought, because the whole idea of energy from a fuel good enough to replace natural gas, must at first sound like nonsense! Yes? […]
REPowerEU Strategy Will Boost Biomethane from Biogas
A new EU wide plan known as the “REPowerEU Strategy” has become law. It will be a game changer for the European Biogas Industry and a massive boost for biomethane production from biogas which will drive the development of many more anaerobic digestion facilities across the European continent. REPowerEU is a European Commission initiative to […]
Renewable Energy Worksheets
In a diversion from our usual articles, this article is about helping teachers to educate schoolchildren up to Grade 7 with four Renewable Energy Lesson Plans. These plans are each included below in the sections which follow, but first please read our introduction to understand our motivation and our intended outcome: Introduction to Renewable Energy […]
Anaerobic Digestion in South Africa – Biogas an Untapped Renewable Resource
The adoption of Anaerobic Digestion in South Africa is at an early stage in what will be a large and productive local industry if developed to even a small proportion of its full potential. For anyone familiar with the country it must be undeniable that they have large untapped renewable resources in all forms of […]
Brewery Waste Management: A Review of WASE’s IndustriWASE Treatment Technology
Brewery Waste Management is a vital subject for the brewing industry. With wastewater treatment and disposal with energy now accounting for approximately 8% of expenditures for UK breweries, brewers must choose between constricted margins, passing costs on to customers, or both. Drink production in breweries, wineries, and distilleries presents special water and wastewater treatment issues. […]
How to Improve Soil Health: The Planet Saving Role of Compost and Digestates
How to Improve Soil Health is a pressing concern. It was the subject of evidence Dr Jane Gilbert from Carbon Clarity gave oral evidence on behalf of CIWM to the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee at the House of Commons recently. Her presentation was provided with an emphasis on the value of compost and […]
How the U.S. “Moving Forward Act” is Boosting the Biogas Industry
The Moving Forward Act, passed by the US House of Representatives in 2020, is a comprehensive infrastructure package aimed at boosting sustainable technologies and creating new jobs. The act includes provisions that specifically support the biogas industry, which has the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and create renewable energy. In this updated article, we […]
