Mesophilic Anaerobic Digestion and the Thermophilic Temperature Range
If you said that mesophilic anaerobic digestion is “cool”, you’d be right compared with the other common temperature range used for AD plants, but probably in more ways than one! The term mesophilic when referring to a biodigestor has been adopted by biogas plant designers to distinguish between the two best temperature ranges for operating […]
Anaerobic Digestion of Manure
Anaerobic Digestion of Manure: A Comprehensive Guide to Sustainable Energy Production Anaerobic digestion is a biological process that transforms organic materials, such as livestock manure, into renewable energy. This article explores the significance of manure management in agriculture and the role of anaerobic digestion in promoting sustainable farming. The anaerobic digestion of manure is the most common type of on farm anaerobic […]
How Biogas is Produced
We found that many people online would like to know, “How is Biogas Produced”. That’s not a bad question, after all, it does seem slightly incredible that something like your old food waste could produce a gas that is used to generate electricity! That’s why we wrote this article. We hope we answered your question […]
What Is Digestate: Understanding The Definition And Uses Of Digestate
Are you puzzled by the term “digestate” and what it entails? If you’re dealing with waste management or agriculture, understanding digestate can be crucial. Many environmental researchers and professionals grapple with the challenges of managing organic waste effectively. 1 And we get it—differentiating between compost, digestate, and other soil conditioners can be confusing. Here’s one […]
The Anaerobic Digestion Process
The Anaerobic Digestion Process has been around since ancient times and probably evolved while our planet’s early atmosphere lacked oxygen. It is also what makes the digestive systems of many animals work, so many creatures owe their lives to this amazing process! This website focuses on the Anaerobic Digestion of waste materials, and to split […]
Slurry Value: The Natural Fertiliser Resource for Sustainable Farming
Hey! Slurry value? The very association of the two words “slurry” and “value” will, we are sure, raise many eyebrows in disbelief! So, is this some sort of a deep fake article? We assure you it is not! Slurry, a semi-liquid manure produced by livestock, holds significant value for farms as a natural fertilizer. Understanding […]
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 […]
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 […]
