US Biogas Capture In 2025: New Investments & Record Growth Prediction
It’s no secret that managing organic waste is a massive headache. Landfills are overflowing, wastewater treatment plants are under pressure, and dairy farms struggle with methane emissions from manure, but Biogas Capture can truly help. 1 Without biogas capture this isn’t just bad for business; it’s a climate concern too. Methane, the pesky gas released […]
Biogas Production Process Steps All AD Experts Should Know
The biogas production process, known as anaerobic digestion, is a recognized sustainable technique. It provides renewable methane from plant photosynthesis. In principle, the idea is to convert organic materials (biomass – usually waste matter) created by the sun’s energy, into renewable energy for use by mankind. Plus, it also recycles the nutrients such as nitrogen […]
Small Scale Anaerobic Digestion
Small scale anaerobic digestion is revolutionizing how homeowners, small farms, and communities manage organic waste and generate renewable energy. Whether you’re in an urban smart city setting or a rural agricultural community, small scale AD systems offer tailored solutions that are increasingly supported by government incentives. Discover how this accessible technology can help you convert […]
Digestate Composition Contaminants and Uses
Composition, Contaminants, and Applications of Digestate Anaerobic digestion has emerged as a pivotal process in waste management and renewable energy production. One of its primary by-products, digestate, serves as a valuable fertilizer and soil conditioner. Understanding the composition, potential contaminants, and beneficial uses of digestate is essential for maximizing its advantages while mitigating any risks […]
What is Anaerobic Digestion?
So, what is Anaerobic Digestion? Anaerobic Digestion involves using the natural process wherein organic matter is broken down by germs, in the absence of oxygen, inside a sealed tank. For both processes, a digester tank is made use of: a gas-tight, sealed vessel with draw-off points, in which plant and animal material (biomass) is naturally […]
Two Stage Anaerobic Digestion
Anaerobic digestion (AD) has emerged as a pivotal technology in the renewable energy sector, particularly for the sustainable production of biogas. Among the various configurations of AD systems, the two-stage anaerobic digestion process stands out for its ability to enhance both process stability and biogas yield. This comprehensive guide delves into the intricacies of two-stage […]
What is Biogas?
Just what is biogas? Biogas is a renewable energy source generated through the anaerobic digestion of organic materials such as agricultural waste, manure, municipal sewage sludge, plant material, and food waste. This natural process breaks down organic matter in the absence of oxygen, producing a gaseous mixture primarily composed of methane (CH₄) and carbon dioxide […]
Boost Sustainability with Farm Digesters – Energy, Materials Circularity and Efficient Waste Management
Farm Digesters in 2024: A Guide to Better Agricultural Sustainability and Waste Management Did you know that farm digesters can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 85% compared to traditional manure management? In an era where sustainable agriculture isn’t just an option but a necessity, farm digesters are emerging as a game-changing solution for […]
What is the Difference Between Biogas and Landfill Gas?
We saw that a question being asked on the forums is, “what is the difference between biogas and landfill gas?”, so we thought that we would write this article to explain. Read on to find out the differences of biogas versus landfill gas, and you will appreciate that people tend to call landfill gas “biogas”. […]
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 […]
