Anaerobic Digestion Food Waste Depackager & Plastics Separator Spins Out Clean Packets and Pots Whole
A new food waste depackager and plastics separator is on the market, and it is packed with disruptive technology. It spins out clean plastic, including packets and even small pots whole. It spins, but it has no rotating spinner barrel. It “cleans without washing“, and it is made by a small Canadian company, called Drycake®. […]
Maximizing Methane Production in Sludge Anaerobic Digestion with Choline Chloride
Waste treatment plants face a major challenge: how to get more energy from sewage sludge. The current methods often fail to break down tough organic matter, which limits biogas output. This problem costs plants money and wastes a chance to create more clean energy. Many experts now look for better ways to boost methane yields from […]
How to Make Hydrogen from Biogas – Utilising Biomethane
Hydrogen can be produced from biogas through what chemical engineers call “reforming processes”, where biogas (primarily methane and carbon dioxide) reacts with steam, air, or oxygen to produce syngas (a mixture of hydrogen and other gases). Before reforming, purification is necessary to remove impurities like hydrogen sulfide (H2S). Here’s an explanation of how to make […]
Farm Digesters and Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions
In this article, we discuss Farm Digesters and the Role of Biogas in the Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Farming waste is piling up, and greenhouse gases like methane are heating the planet faster than we can handle. For many farmers, managing animal waste or food scraps feels overwhelming. At the same time, rising costs […]
Digester Tankage
Today, we discuss the topic of digester tankage, otherwise known as anaerobic digestion tanks. Small Home/ Domestic Biogas Digester Tankage In this article, we start at the smallest scale of anaerobic digestion plant tankage, those being for single houses up to community-scale AD plants. Although time-honoured designs of buried AD plants, constructed in masonry, remain […]
Concrete vs Steel Biogas Tanks for Anaerobic Digestion Plants
Concrete vs. steel biogas tanks and which is the best material for Anaerobic Digestion Plants is the subject of this page, based on a Press Release provided by the precast concrete manufacturer, Whites Concrete. We refer to precast concrete units made and cured in the factory versus steel biogas tanks fabricated from mild steel panels […]
