Small Scale Anaerobic Digestion
Small scale anaerobic digestion is revolutionizing how homeowners, small farms, and communities manage organic waste and generate renewable energy. Whether you’re in an urban smart city setting or a rural agricultural community, small scale AD systems offer tailored solutions that are increasingly supported by government incentives. Discover how this accessible technology can help you convert […]
What is Anaerobic Digestion?
So, what is Anaerobic Digestion? Anaerobic Digestion involves using the natural process wherein organic matter is broken down by germs, in the absence of oxygen, inside a sealed tank. For both processes, a digester tank is made use of: a gas-tight, sealed vessel with draw-off points, in which plant and animal material (biomass) is naturally […]
Two Stage Anaerobic Digestion
Anaerobic digestion (AD) has emerged as a pivotal technology in the renewable energy sector, particularly for the sustainable production of biogas. Among the various configurations of AD systems, the two-stage anaerobic digestion process stands out for its ability to enhance both process stability and biogas yield. This comprehensive guide delves into the intricacies of two-stage […]
Anaerobic Digestion Tanks
Anaerobic digestion tanks (often known as biogas tanks, or digester tanks) are large, usually circular in plan, and very distinctively topped with their flexible gas storage plastic membrane covers, that are often cone shaped and supported at the centre with a single pole. These innovative vessels not only treat waste but also generate biogas—a valuable […]
Anaerobic Digestion of Manure
Anaerobic Digestion of Manure: A Comprehensive Guide to Sustainable Energy Production Anaerobic digestion is a biological process that transforms organic materials, such as livestock manure, into renewable energy. This article explores the significance of manure management in agriculture and the role of anaerobic digestion in promoting sustainable farming. The anaerobic digestion of manure is the most common type of on farm anaerobic […]
Anaerobic Digestion Wastewater Treatment
The Process of Anaerobic Wastewater Treatment or “How it Works”. Dealing with wastewater can be tough. We all want clean rivers and lakes, but often the process of getting there is complex. One effective method is anaerobic digestion wastewater treatment and before we start I will admit that it’s also complex. Wastewater treatment applications use […]
The Anaerobic Digestion Process
The Anaerobic Digestion Process has been around since ancient times and probably evolved while our planet’s early atmosphere lacked oxygen. It is also what makes the digestive systems of many animals work, so many creatures owe their lives to this amazing process! This website focuses on the Anaerobic Digestion of waste materials, and to split […]
Anaerobic Digestion and Biogas Off-Grid for Remote Communities
Biogas off-grid is an ideal energy for remote communities and homes far from the nearest power lines. Living off-grid can be rewarding, but it also comes with its own set of challenges. Many remote communities struggle with unreliable energy sources and high costs of fuel. 1 Without easy access to electricity or clean cooking gas, daily life becomes harder. 2 Biogas […]
Disadvantages of Incineration vs Anaerobic Digestion
Hmmm! “Disadvantages of Incineration vs Anaerobic Digestion”; We guess that a lot of visitors will be thinking, “Why compare these two processes? Why talk about the disadvantages of incineration versus anaerobic digestion?” That is a good question, and it isn’t something we would have thought of, had the comparison not been made in a report published […]
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 […]
Thermophilic Anaerobic Digestion Explained For Optimized Biogas Production
Turning waste into energy is a big challenge. Yet, the process of thermophilic anaerobic digestion offers a powerful solution and is seldom used, with most AD plants being mesophilic (lower temperature) digesters. The high-temperature range method uses the high heat to break down organic matter without oxygen more rapidly, creating more biogas daily per unit volume of a digester tank. Biogas […]
Resource Size of the Potentially Available Anaerobic Digestion Biomass Underestimated: Verge Clippings
Anaerobic Digestion Biomass is a largely unused resource, and as this article shows, by using the example of unused verge clippings, the energy potential is far larger than is appreciated. Read on to find out how waste biomass, if fully developed in the UK and globally, can become a huge source of energy, fertilizer, and fibrous […]
