Digester Mixing Theory and Landia GasMix Review on their 30th Anniversary!
Read on for our discussion of CSTR Digester Mixing Theory and our Landia GasMix Review, plus congratulations to Landia UK on celebrating 30-years in business! Introduction to Digester Mixing Theory Manufacturers that offer anaerobic digestion plant mixing systems will tell you that operators that seek better biogas plant efficiency and have digesters that lack mixing, […]
First IoW Biogas Plant – Update and Now There Are Two!
The first Isle of Wight Biogas Plant was in the news back in 2014 when the Black Dog biogas plant was commissioned. Wight Farm Energy and Schmack Biogas combined their international expertise with local knowledge a year later to build and commission the second IoW biogas plant on the UK holiday and sailing Island. It […]
Recent News and Developments in Biogas Engines for Shipping
Biogas Engines For Ships: The Trend Toward Biogas In Maritime Transport Finding greener options for fuel in ships is a big challenge today. The International Maritime Organisation aims to cut ship emissions by half by 2050. Our article explores the latest developments and how biogas can offer a solution, providing cleaner energy for ships. Keep reading to learn more! Understanding Biogas […]
Anaerobic Digestion in Germany & AD Industry Growth Prospects from EEG 2021 Act
Anaerobic digestion in Germany is forecast to expand. There is good reason to be optimistic about the prospects of growth in the German anaerobic digestion industry due to the passing of the new 2021 Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG) by the Bundestag, which took place just before Christmas 2020. This promises to be a major […]
Green Biogas – UK Green Investment Bank Backing Is Proof
We have said many times that the anaerobic digestion process makes green biogas profitable with a good ROI, but where is the proof of that? Back in December 2012 when we first posted this article, we based our case on a “Utility Week” article here which announced that Anaerobic digestion and energy efficiency had won the […]
UK Anaerobic Digestion Plants Exceed 100 And Hit Trouble: Looking Back
In this article, we will look back at our March 2013 article when UK Anaerobic Digestion Plants exceeded 100 and were receiving damaging media attention due to novice operators causing some high-profile environmental problems. So, we reported that they were “hitting trouble”. The fact is that now (in 2023), with the benefit of hindsight, we […]
What are Biogas Plants? – Digesters Explained with Examples
So, what are Biogas Plants? Biogas plants are systems that use organic waste to generate renewable energy (biogas). Biogas is a gas mixture composed of methane, carbon dioxide, and other gases formed when organic matter decomposes in the absence of oxygen. Anaerobic digestion is the process of producing biogas from organic waste. 1 – An […]
Anaerobic Digestion Basics and 5 Tips on How AD Works
We bring you the Anaerobic Digestion Basics (AD) and if you scroll down, 5 tips on how AD Works. AD is in-truth an unhelpful acronym for the basic age-old natural process that produces renewable energy as heat and biogas, and at the same time makes a natural crop fertilizer. That, in a nutshell, is basic […]
Introduction to the Dairy Farm Biogas Production Process
The dairy farm biogas production process begins with the collection of manure and other organic materials from the farm. The organic materials are then mixed with water and degraded by bacteria to create biogas. The biogas is then pressurized, cleaned and purified to grid quality and used to power facilities on the farm. That in […]
Food Waste AD – The Anaerobic Digestion of Inedible Food for Energy and Natural Fertiliser
Food Waste AD is the short way to refer to the anaerobic digestion of food waste. In other words, extracting energy from inedible food provides renewable energy and natural fertiliser while diverting environmentally damaging waste away from landfills. That encapsulates the core philosophy of the movement towards food waste AD. “It’s a crying same that […]
