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 […]
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 […]
Anaerobic Digestion of Biomass – Make Money from Biowaste!
Anaerobic digestion of biomass can be of real benefit to many companies that prepare food products of all types, but these companies often don’t appreciate the biomass asset that lurks unseen in the high organic content of their food processing waste. “Food processing companies large kitchen etc., may be missing out on the value of […]
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 […]
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 […]
Food Waste in America – The Wasteful Facts of Unused US Meals
The food waste in America is huge. The facts show that this is both a major problem for the environment and at the same time reducing it could be a great asset. In the USA, the population wastes so much food that correspondingly large quantities of renewable sustainable, 24/7 energy could be created from the […]
List of Food Waste Depackaging and Separation Equipment Suppliers
The following is a list of “Food Waste Depackaging and Separation Equipment Suppliers”. The list is based upon our online search for, as far as possible, a complete list of global manufacturers/ suppliers of depackaging and separation machinery designed to treat mixed biowaste waste streams for the purpose of reuse and recycling in the anaerobic […]
Food Waste Separators with Less Destructive Depackaging & Pulping Pre-treat SSOHW Better
Prior to anaerobic digestion, new food waste separators with advanced depackaging and pulping technology, when used to pre-treat Source-Separated Organic Household Waste (SSOHW), improve the purity of the organic pulp. Reject output streams were also purer than for earlier systems based on milling and shredding. That’s according to research by the Department of Environmental Engineering, […]
Biogas Buses – What are they? and How are they Environmentally Friendly?
Biogas buses are catching on. What could be better than using biogas from the anaerobic digestion process to power transport fleets? The energy source is renewable, made from waste by-products, and the methane used in this fuel is clean-burning. Using it instead of using a fossil fuel like diesel removes the concerns for air pollution […]
Digestate Separator Successfully Removes Plastic Packaging Waste from AD Plant Slurry
With the massive public concern about plastics entering the environment today’s news of a new digestate separator device that successfully removes plastic packaging waste, is very good news. It removes bits of food waste packaging, and other unwanted materials from entering the digester, and from the slurry which pours out of all wet-process biogas plants […]
