Exploring Biogas By-Products: Uses, Production, And Benefits
Examining the Applications, Production Methods, and Advantages of Biogas By-Products Does your farm produce too much organic waste? Do you have problems in wet weather when slurry storage lagoons are full, and it keeps on raining? Maybe the local river quality is dropping and you suspect your farm is partly to blame because excess spreading […]
How to Make Biogas from Food Waste
Biogas is energy made from a process involving breaking down food scraps without air. This process, called anaerobic digestion, uses bacteria to turn waste into gas. Food scraps, garden clippings, and farm leftovers can all be used. 3 Making biogas involves a few key parts. First, for a simple small household home biogas plant you’ll […]
Comparing Biogas Vs Natural Gas: Environmental Impact Explained
Analysis of the Environmental Impact of Biogas Versus Natural Gas Choosing between biogas and natural gas is vital for our planet. Both are used to generate electricity, cook, and heat homes but affect our world differently. Biogas is a renewable energy source made from organic waste, like food scraps and animal manure. 1 Natural gas […]
Reviving an AD Plant: How a Mixing System Overhaul Restored Biogas Output
When faced with a critical failure at an AD plant, many would have turned away—but not Ross Mingotti. New to the industry, Ross and his team confronted significant challenges, including a failed mixing system, tank complications, and delayed replacement parts, all of which threatened the plant’s operations and revenue. Yet, instead of giving up, they […]
10 Facts About Anaerobic Digestion: Unlocking the Power of Waste
Read on for our list of 10 true facts about anaerobic digestion and transforming trash into treasure. We “air” a topic about a process that surprisingly doesn’t need air (oxygen); in fact, the truly anaerobic microorganisms that do the work die if exposed to air! and would be just as happy on the moon. Imagine […]

Biogas in Africa as a Replacement for Fossil Fuels in Sub-Saharan Africa
Biogas in Africa can have a central role in the replacement of fossil fuels in Sub-Saharan Africa and in providing affordable and clean energy as identified in the 2030 UN SDG 7. So, despite many setbacks and our previously voiced very real concerns about transparency and accountability when things go wrong, we provide this updated […]
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? […]

What is Biogas? Beginner’s Anaerobic Digesters Large & Small
We answer the question: “What is Biogas?” Biogas is generated during anaerobic digestion (AD) when microorganisms break down (by eating it) organic materials in the absence of air (or oxygen). Biogas is mostly methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2), with very small amounts of water vapor and other gases. The carbon dioxide and other gases […]
