Enhancing Bioplastic Degradation Through Anaerobic Digestion
Anaerobic digestion of bioplastics, enhancing their degradation through anaerobic digestion is becoming a more important topic almost daily as EU nations move to bioplastic (biologically sourced plastic) and away from fossil fuel (oil) based plastics. Every day, we see more plastic waste piling up in our environment. It’s a big issue that affects our planet. […]
Anaerobic Digestion and Biogas Off-Grid for Remote Communities
Biogas off-grid is an ideal energy for remote communities and homes far from the nearest power lines. Living off-grid can be rewarding, but it also comes with its own set of challenges. Many remote communities struggle with unreliable energy sources and high costs of fuel. 1 Without easy access to electricity or clean cooking gas, daily life becomes harder. 2 Biogas […]
Disadvantages of Incineration vs Anaerobic Digestion
Hmmm! “Disadvantages of Incineration vs Anaerobic Digestion”; We guess that a lot of visitors will be thinking, “Why compare these two processes? Why talk about the disadvantages of incineration versus anaerobic digestion?” That is a good question, and it isn’t something we would have thought of, had the comparison not been made in a report published […]

Food Waste Energy: Exploring The Conversion Of Food Waste Into Energy Through Anaerobic Digestion
Exploring The Conversion Of Food Waste Into Energy Through Anaerobic Digestion Every year, heaps of food waste fill our bins and ultimately, our landfills. Anaerobic digestion is a clever method that transforms this waste into energy. This blog will guide you through how converting leftover food can light up homes and fuel cars. Get ready to be inspired! What is Anaerobic Digestion and How […]
Thermophilic Anaerobic Digestion Explained For Optimized Biogas Production
Turning waste into energy is a big challenge. Yet, the process of thermophilic anaerobic digestion offers a powerful solution and is seldom used, with most AD plants being mesophilic (lower temperature) digesters. The high-temperature range method uses the high heat to break down organic matter without oxygen more rapidly, creating more biogas daily per unit volume of a digester tank. Biogas […]
California Climate Action Plan: How Republic Services Enhances Biogas Production with Landia’s Chopper Pumps
As the State of California intensifies its efforts to mitigate the impacts of climate change, key legislative and policy measures, including the ambitious California Climate Action Plan, aim to reduce the state’s environmental footprint. One significant challenge is the management of the 11 million tons of organic waste produced annually, a critical issue addressed through […]
Biogas Venting Strategies for the Lowest Fugitive Methane Emissions
Mitigating fugitive emissions of methane into the atmosphere through the applying the best preventative biogas venting strategies. Unintentional “fugitive emissions” of methane can have serious environmental consequences, raising global temperatures. This blog will provide practical strategies to help mitigate these emissions and ensure a safer, cleaner environment. Stay tuned for valuable insights into reducing fugitive […]
The Dry Anaerobic Digestion Process
The dry anaerobic digestion process (AD) is the anaerobic digestion of biomass in the solid phase. The phase (i.e. liquid or solid) is the main distinction between “Dry Anaerobic Digestion” processes and “Wet Anaerobic Digestion” processes. The waste industry refers to the “Dry Anaerobic Digestion Process” but the scientific community calls it SSAD (Solid State […]
Using Biogenic CO2 for Beverage Production: A Climate Remediating Innovation
In today’s world, finding sustainable ways to produce what we consume is crucial. As professionals with years of experience in the anaerobic digestion industry, we’ve seen firsthand how innovative solutions, like sourcing biogenic CO2 from the carbon dioxide byproduct of biogas upgrading, can transform challenges into opportunities.
