Landia GasMix Biogas Reactor Mixing System – Awards Update
Here is an update to the Press Release we published about the Landia GasMix Biogas Reactor Mixing System award back in 2016. We are pleased to inform you that Landia received two “Highly Commended” Honours on its first attempt at the prestigious UK AD & Biogas Industry Awards of that year. Landia the creators of […]
UK Biogas – UK AD Industry 21st Century History and End of Stagnation
“UK Biogas” or the UK anaerobic digestion and biogas production industry to give it its full title has been developed over the years since 2000. In this article, we cover the UK Industry’s history and recent developments. Increasing demand for renewable energy resources, rising energy costs, and stringent government regulations to reduce greenhouse gas emissions […]
Bio Thermic Digester (BTD) Gains Acceptance And May Become Major Competitor To Anaerobic Digestion
Bio Thermic Digester (BTD) is the term for an innovative type of industrial-scale biological high temperature-digester which uses Aerobic Extremophilic Bacteria to achieve a remarkably high level of mass reduction and has been launched by waste treatment specialist Advetec. The technology is understood to be capable of rapidly processing significantly high volumes of organic municipal waste, […]
Coronavirus Impacts on Food Waste Arriving at Biogas Plants – Panic Buying
The coronavirus is undoubtedly impacting on the volume and characteristics of food waste arriving at Biogas Plants, and one source will be the result of panic buying. However, the scale of the increase in food waste is hard to judge. We were interested to read a recent Landia Press Release on waste food (possibly of […]
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 inedible food for renewable energy and natural fertiliser. That sentence encapsulates the core philosophy of the movement towards food waste AD. “It’s a crying same that any food is wasted while so many people struggle to feed themselves. Mechanically digesting this […]
Food Waste Recycling Machine Raises Purity of Pretreated Biogas Substrate to New Level
Gemidan Ecogi’s anaerobic digestion substrate pre-treatment system is effectively a food waste recycling machine for large commercial biogas plants which produces a high-quality pulp-based substrate for digestion/ energy production in AD/ biogas plants. The Gemidan ECOGI system (food waste recycling machine) has a reputation for enhancing the recovery of renewable energy during the anaerobic digestion […]
What is Renewable Energy and How Does It Work
There is a simple answer to; “What is renewable energy?” It is energy which is self replenishing. Many people would say that it is also sustainable energy, which implies that in accordance with many definitions of sustainability it should be self replenishing within a generation, so that the present generation does not rob energy resources […]
Xergi Biogas Plants Completed for Bernard Matthews and Others
Xergi Biogas Plants: By the Xergi Biogas company, Denmark’s market leading supplier of AD technology has been building a successful biogas business in the UK, and around the world, for over 6 years, with multiple plants now either operational, or in construction. Nowadays, new Xergi biogas plants are announced every few months. As you can see […]
High Rate Anaerobic Digestion Plant Treats Wastewater Effluent Streams
A High Rate Anaerobic Digestion Plant can treat high strength Wastewater Effluent Streams including sewage sludge, very efficiently. This is an important finding due to the fact that biodegradable wastewaters contribute about 6% of all anthropogenic methane emissions. High-rate anaerobic digesters have the potential to treat such wastewaters while also creating renewable energy. This energy […]
Landia’s GasMix System Installed at Cory’s First Anaerobic Digestion Plant
Landia’s acclaimed GasMix system is at the heart of the new biogas making process using anaerobic-digestion, at Cory Environmental. Cory, with over 40 sites are one of the UK’s leading recycling, waste management and energy recovery companies. March 2014: Cory has unveiled its first anaerobic digestion facility, which will produce renewable energy to power local homes. […]
