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. CO2 sourced from agricultural and food waste sources for […]
Resource Size of the Potentially Available Anaerobic Digestion Biomass Underestimated: Verge Clippings
Anaerobic Digestion Biomass is a largely unused resource, and as this article shows, by using the example of unused verge clippings, the energy potential is far larger than is appreciated. Read on to find out how waste biomass, if fully developed in the UK and globally, can become a huge source of energy, fertilizer, and fibrous […]
Anaerobic Digestion Process Nutrients
Anaerobic Digestion Process Nutrients: Ensuring the Right Conditions for Successful Anaerobic Digestion The balance of nutrients is crucial to all biological processes. If any nutrient is absent or in low supply, it may become process rate-limiting. In some cases, the lack of particular nutrients may reduce the stability of biological processes, or result in organisms […]
What Happened to UK Feed-in Tariffs for Small Scale Electricity Generation & Small Biogas Plants?
The Feed-In Tariffs (FiTs) – An Introduction April 2010 saw the introduction of a system of feed in tariffs (FITs) in England, Scotland, and Wales to encourage the small-scale development of low carbon electricity generation facilities by providing revenue. A “clean energy cashback” is what the UK Government described it as in 2010, and it […]
Anaerobic Digestion of Food Waste is Number One!
The anaerobic digestion of food waste is an important application for AD technology. It is the number one preferred method for treating and disposing of food waste according to the Waste Hierarchy, above composting, and certainly a long way better than sending it to landfills. Many EU nations are placing legal requirements on local authorities to […]
10 Uses of Biogas: A Sustainable Energy Source
We list below 10 uses of biogas in points. These are the ways in which biogas use can be an important technology to help mankind reduce climate change. It’s a useful alternative source of renewable energy and, if utilised, would be capable of reducing global warming by about 10%. Be convinced of the many advantages […]

Biomethane from sewage sludge is a success for STW: Discover how the Biogas Plant at Minworth STW (Sewage Treatment Works – or alternatively called a Wastewater Treatment Works is turning sewage sludge into renewable biomethane to heat 3,000 homes. Read on for a story of green energy innovation. Are you concerned about how our everyday […]
Biogas Additives Improving Digester Biology in Anaerobic Digestion Plants
In this article we provide a summary of Biogas Additives which are offered to AD Plant operators. This is all about improving Digester Biology in Anaerobic Digestion Plants for higher biogas yield and greater digester resilience against loss of biogas production when the anaerobic digestion process becomes stressed. Some industry experts have in the past been highly […]
