Biomethane Production – Processed Biogas (Digester Methane) Explained
Biomethane production is the term given to producing “processed digester methane”, in other words the processed biogas from an anaerobic digestion plant. Chemically, it is very close to natural gas but unlike the latter, biomethane is produced from organic waste material in biogas plants. Also known as green gas, biomethane production is designed to produce energy […]
Feed-In Tariff Closing – UK Government Fails to Support Biogas Small-Scale Renewable Energy
A Feed-In Tariff (FIT) consultation is underway, but the fact is that the UK FIT will end in just 9 months. In truth it is inexplicable why the UK government will not be updating and extending the FIT for electricity produced from biogas production from wastes using the AD process. The problem for anaerobic digestion […]
Anaerobic Digestion and Climate Change – Making Biogas to Reduce Greenhouse Gases
Anaerobic digestion can play a major part in the fight against climate change, and the importance of the link between anaerobic digestion and climate change reduction is still not fully appreciated. So, read on and see whether you then agree that making biogas to reduce greenhouse gases, has enormous potential for climate change reduction. Anaerobic […]
Biogas Plant Construction and Working Stages
The secret to understanding the most common biogas plant construction and working stages, is explained here for he most common AD plant type. By far the most common biogas plants are those based upon one single anaerobic digestion tank, and they are often known as “Continuous Stirred Tank Reactors” (CSTRS). They are often called single […]
Biogas Electric Generator Suppliers List US
The Biogas Electric Generator Suppliers List US, below shows United States generator set suppliers which provide electric power generators to produce electricity from biogas made using the anaerobic digestion process. Each of these manufacturers and/ or distributors of engines is listed in the “AgSTAR Vendor Directory for Manure Digester Systems”, and has completed that directory as […]
Co-disposal of Food Waste and Sewage Sludge ADBA Show to Host Debate
The idea of co-digestion of food waste and sewage sludge, is new to the UK but the obvious good-sense of it is gaining traction, and the ADBA Biogas/ Bioresources Trade Show this July will host an important debate on the subject. When the UK water industry was privatised in the 1980s, nobody conceived that sewage sludge […]
Waste Management Hierarchy – The Driver for Sustainable Biogas Development
All those involved need to grasp the concepts behind the Waste Management Hierarchy, because it is the essential concept which will always drive sustainable biogas development and the whole so-called circular economy. In the forefront of anyone’s mind when developing a sustainable waste management strategy for a business or a project, should be the inverted pyramid […]
Dry AD – What Happens Inside a Dry Anaerobic Digestion Plant
Dry AD: This article is about what happens inside a Dry Anaerobic Digestion Plant. we might also have called it “The Dry Anaerobic Digestion Process Explained Stage by Stage”. In brief, if you want to know what is Dry AD, read-on! Dry anaerobic digestion (also called SSAD – Solid State Anaerobic Digestion) has been seen […]

Digestate Quality Contaminants and Uses
In order to extract the maximum recovery value from the organic waste input, the digestate from anaerobic digestion should be used for a useful purpose and positive benefit should be derived from its production. Digestate from anaerobic digestion should be used for a useful purpose and positive benefit should be derived from its production. Digestate […]
