Silage Clamps – Planning and Building a New Silage Clamp

Silage clamps are so often hidden away and neglected, and yet they are vital part of every agricultural biogas plant. The storage of forage stocks (silage) is vital for those times in every year when AD feedstocks are in short supply from other sources. Undoubtedly, the average farm business should pay them more attention, especially since […]

4 Biogas Digester Facts Everyone Can Benefit From

The term “biogas digester” can describe any anaerobic digestion process. It is most associated historically with the brick built types of buried fixed Dome Biogas Digester. This type of biogas digester is very common in many developing nations, but new types of plants, can be much better. So, here are four Biogas Digester facts you […]

Advantages of Biomethane Gas to Grid AD Plants

In this article we will explain the advantages of biomethane gas to grid AD plants, but before we start on that, we thought we would be sure to bring all readers along with us by explaining what we mean by “gas to grid” anaerobic digestion plants. The difference between a “gas to grid” biogas plant and a […]

AD Plants are a Huge Opportunity Right Now!

There is no doubt that AD plants are undervalued by society currently and will become a huge opportunity in the UK and globally when climate change abatement really kicks in. The big advantage possessed when an anaerobic digestion plant is installed is that it produces biogas, and that’s a big opportunity. Like many UK anaerobic […]

Digestate Spreading – Best Practise Equipment and Application

In this article on Digestate Spreading we have brought together the most authoritative information on the best practice, the equipment, and the application of digestate. We start with a definition of what digestate spreading is, and we go on to cover digestate produced to PAS110 Quality Protocol standard. That’s followed by the best practice from […]

2 Farm Methane Types One Intended and One is an Unintentional Byproduct

Farm methane for so long a neglected part of farming, is a subject which is becoming ever more popular as the word about the energy, and waste management benefits get out! There are two ways in which farm methane is produced, as follows: Methane Unintentionally Produced on the Farm: Methane produced in purpose-built and operated biogas-digesters (anaerobic […]

The Advantages of Biogas

The advantages of biogas are many. Among the greatest advantages are that the renewable energy produced, substitutes fossil fuels and thus reduces the emissions of greenhouse gases. Plus, it does it at a cost much lower than by most other techniques. In addition to the multiple renewable energy advantages of biogas are the soil fertilizer and […]

3 Biogas Digester Lessons You Can Benefit From Today

A biogas digester is required to make biogas. A biogas digester (anaerobic digestion plant) is a sealed container holding water and bacteria, which is fed organic matter to be broken down, and which collects the resultant biogas. The biogas is tapped off from an inverted drum or plastic membrane collector, either to a collector for […]

Biofertilizer Resource List – It’s a Must-Have!

Biofertilizer (or in the UK Biofertiliser) will become a major source for plant fertility in agriculture in the future*. That’s why we have compiled this resource page, defining biofertilizer and listing topics of importance re: biofertilizer and diBiofertiliser (the name for “digestate biofertilizer”). A major benefit of biofertilizers comes from the presence of  “plant-growth promoting rhizobacteria” (PGPR) […]
