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 […]
