Phosphorus Alternatives: Vital Role for Anaerobic Digestion in Nutrient Recycling
Find out about one of the mineral fertilizers among the Phosphorus Alternatives, and the vital role for Anaerobic Digestion in Nutrient Recycling. Many experts have been warning us all that current farming practices are not sustainable in the long-term, and a looming crisis exists because all modern agriculture relies on a cheap supply of phosphorus. Today that comes […]
Digester Covers and Secrets of the Flexible Inflatable Membrane Cover
Digester Covers, which also act as gasholders are an important part of any biogas plant, performing the triple function of sealing the digester from the air, keeping it warm, and providing storage for a variable rate of pressurized gas, to balance the rate of biogas production with its use. Digester covers are essential to the […]
Anaerobic Digestion Equipment: Complete Guide to AD Plant Systems
Anaerobic digestion equipment is much more than the digester tank itself. A reliable AD or biogas plant depends on an integrated chain of feedstock reception, preparation, pumping, mixing, heating, digestion, gas handling, energy recovery, digestate management, instrumentation and safety systems. Choosing the wrong item at almost any point in that chain can constrain the whole […]
Agricultural Slurry Pumping Savings – Borger Satisfies an AD Plant Client
We are pleased to be able to report that highly significant savings have been achieved in agricultural slurry pumping costs at a farm-based AD Plant in Lincolnshire, as reported by Borger Pumps in combination with the distributor of their agricultural products Gissing FE. Watch our video below, or read the written article which follows. We think […]
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 […]
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 […]
