For UK Energy and Food Security Biogas is a 3 Times No-Brainer
The ADBA conference next week in central London will focus on why (in our own words), for UK energy and food security, biogas from the anaerobic digestion process is a 3 times no-brainer! Why is that? UK energy and food security would benefit from three outputs from the anaerobic digestion process namely: biogas a biofertiliser […]
Agricultural Slurry Pumping Savings – Borger Satisfies an AD Plant Client
We are pleased to be able to report that highly significant savings have been achieved in agricultural slurry pumping costs at a farm-based AD Plant in Lincolnshire, as reported by Borger Pumps in combination with the distributor of their agricultural products Gissing FE. Watch our video below, or read the written article which follows. We think […]
Biomethane from Biogas and 6 Reasons Why It’s a Hot Topic
Making biomethane from biogas is the biggest buzz in the Anaerobic Digestion Industry today. Globally there is great interest in creating biomethane because it is one of the only technologies available today which can provide a renewable energy supply for heavy vehicle use. As the world transitions to a cleaner, more sustainable economic model biomethane […]
Biogas Plant Pumps to Drive the Anaerobic Digestion Process
Biogas plant pumps drive the flow through the Anaerobic Digestion Process in all biogas plants. They are literally the heart of the process. If a biogas plant pump stops working and there is no standby pump, the process will no longer be fed and a biogas production run down will result. Soon, if pumping is […]
Sludge Blockages in Biogas Pipes Solved
Sludge blockages can cause a reduction in biogas output, which can be cured using an inline Mono Muncher for its tearing, shearing and crushing action. If your biogas yield drops unexpectedly, it could be due to a problem with your digester’s sludge homogeneity. It’s possible that your system isn’t mixing efficiently, and if your internal […]
Recycling Fish Morts Using Anaerobic Digestion
There’s a reason why recycling fish morts is valued as a digester feedstock amongst biogas plant operators. First, the fish mort pulp, comprising the dead young fish removed from aquaculture (mostly salmon) farms is rapidly digested. Second, mort recycling is also healthier and greener for the environment, than alternative disposal methods. There are many sources […]
Digester Cleaning Contractors
Digester cleaning contractors are in charge of removing the build-up of solids that tend to accumulate in the digester. Sooner or later a clean-out is essential to the proper functioning of the anaerobic digestion plant. If you work in the biogas industry, you know that one of the most important—and difficult—jobs is digester cleaning. The […]
Biomethane Bus Fleets and HGVs Proven Cleaner Cheaper and More Sustainable
The era of the biomethane bus has arrived in the UK as biomethane-powered buses and HGVs are also proving to be cleaner (satisfying Inner City Clean Air Act requirements) than diesel, cheaper to run and a lot more sustainable. Why a Biomethane Bus is So Much Better than Diesel Powered Biomethane has great potential as […]
Experts in Anaerobic Digestion in the UK Need to Shout Louder About the Benefits
In this article, we make the point that Anaerobic Digestion UK Professionals need to shout louder about the benefits of anaerobic digestion, and their vision of a global biogas boom. This article is inspired by an editorial by Charlotte Morton, ADBA’s Chief Executive, and she is quite right to point out that: The benefits of […]
Ways to Make Money from Farm Biogas Plants
In this article, we list and describe the many “Ways to Make Money from Farm Biogas Plants“. The remarkable thing about anaerobic digestion (AD) plants, also known as biogas plants, and as “digesters”, is the number of ways they can create an income, and make money, for their owners. We think that many people fail […]
Biomethane and the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI)
The UK Government RHI Subsidy scheme closed at midnight on 31 March 2022. If you are a biogas plant operator with an existing renewable heating system already accredited to DRHI, you will usually be able to receive the remainder of the payment as originally promised by the government within this scheme. The following article is the archive […]
EPC Contractors in Anaerobic Digestion
Most biogas plants are built by EPC Contractors in Anaerobic Digestion. These contractors are often called Turnkey Contractors, Design and Build Contractors or Design and Build Operate Contractors (DBO).
