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 […]
How to use Biogas Scrubbers to Purify Biogas
How do you purify biogas? It’s a question central to all but the most simple use of biogas at low pressure from a home digester when it is piped direct to a kitchen stove, although even then bubbling the gas through water is often applied. According to the literature, biogas processing entails the most effective […]
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 […]
Pig Farm Anaerobic Digestion – Realities of Operating Swine and Hog Digesters
Pig farm anaerobic digestion and including in this swine, and hog farms have just as much potential as Dairy Farms for anaerobic digestion to make biogas as an additional source of income. At the same time, their biogas plants can provide for a much more environmentally beneficial means of disposing of the farm waste, and […]
Small-scale Digestate Separator for Dairy Farms with up to 150 Cows
A small-scale digestate separator has been added to the popular Börger Bioselect™ range of digestate separator units. This adds to their range which has become a top choice for operators seeking solid/ liquid digestate separation. Virtually all AD plant operators would be assisted by this technology at the outlets from their biogas reactors. Press Release […]
Anaerobic Digestion Costs Revealed by our Research Online
Anaerobic digestion costs in recent articles: Like to know costs, such as energy production $/Kwh, cost of construction of AD plants per unit of energy output etc
Anaerobic Digestion Cost – Plus Gate Fees and Other Rules of Thumb
In this article, we look at how much does anaerobic digestion cost in general. We also discuss the gate fees that food waste digesters charge and other general rules of thumb to help those that seek help with assessing biogas digester costs. Capital Cost A commercial microbial anaerobic digester can cost anywhere between $400,000 and $5,000,000 […]
