What is Pyrolysis? And, Its Pros and Cons Versus Biogas for Energy
We answer the question “What is Pyrolysis” first with a definition and then consider the pros and cons of pyrolysis technology, versus anaerobic digestion and biogas production for energy from biomass. What is Pyrolysis? A Definition of this Process – Used to Extract Energy from Waste The non-technical answer is that pyrolysis is known to […]
Why Biomethane Output Will Rise Despite Government Biogas Plant Subsidy Degradation
We still believe that Biomethane Output will rise in the UK and Europe, despite UK Government Biogas Plant Subsidy removal and degradation. Our original graphic (shown on the left here) which was made to accompany this article now looks over-optimistic for the time. Nevertheless, there are so many reasons why this renewable fuel will be […]
RWM 2020 Even Better? After 2019 Had It All – Recycling, Waste Management and Biogas! Record Breaking Year
Could RWM 2020 be even better? We think that’ll be a hard act to follow, after 2019 had it all. Recycling, Waste Management and Biogas exhibits were all there in abundance, under one roof and with an unbeatable seminar coverage. We challenge anyone to have attended and not found more than enough inspiration from it. […]
Stop Plastic Pollution on Land – A Plea for Tighter PAS 110 Rules
Here we lend our support to a move for tighter PAS 110 Rules to stop plastic pollution on land, as we believe that the UK’s specification for natural biogas fertiliser needs urgently updating to incorporate controls on the permissible amount of plastic. The ocean plastic pollution problem can only be solved if society puts a […]
What is a Biogas Power Plant?
A Biogas Power Plant is essentially another name which has been coined recently for an anaerobic digestion plant. These are, also known as biogas digesters. As any technology becomes more successful and reaches a wider audience, so does it generate new names and the anaerobic digestion technology sector is no exception. To cover the entire […]
Biogas Production in China – Agricultural, Domestic and at Community Scale
Biogas production in China from agricultural organic waste is extensively utilised already and has potential to be developed further, to provide additional energy, and this is also highly sustainable energy for the nation. Most speak of Chinese biogas for the Agricultural, Domestic and Community uses. This article is limited to those applications. Introduction Even as […]
Biogas Upgraders – The Best 3 Biogas to Biomethane Technologies
Biogas upgraders are facilities that are used to concentrate the methane in biogas to natural gas standards. The upgrading systems remove carbon dioxide (CO₂), hydrogen sulphide (sulfide), water and other trace concentration contaminants from the biogas. Upgraded biogas is called “biomethane.” What are the three top performing biogas upgrading technologies? There are in fact 8 […]

A Dairy Farmer didn’t believe the performance of a “just fitted” item of Slurry Equipment for Sale. This is a story of success, and it comes to you from pump and mixer equipment manufacturer Landia. Yes! It does happen now and again, that things go so well that its hard believe what’s happening… It gave […]
The Application of Biogas – A List of the 7 Top Uses
The application of biogas in real-world uses has many advantages. First of all applying the biogas process (anaerobic digestion) is best known to be a renewable energy creator, and yet for some people the motivation in agriculture can increasingly be more to provide a waste management solution, than gain energy benefits. Let’s go back a […]
Uses of Biogas
The primary uses of biogas are domestic cooking and lighting in developing nations, and electricity and heat in the developed and wealthier nations. This will change over the next 5 to 10 years in wealthy countries keen to maximize their efforts to avert climate change. That’s because most nations have become aware that biogas is […]
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 […]
