Green Gas Levy: Biomethane Plants Tariff Scheme Will Fund UK Biogas Plants
The UK Green Gas Levy is going ahead, which means that this new Tariff Scheme will help fund new UK biogas plants. The UK government has confirmed that a charge on gas suppliers will be implemented to fund grid-connected anaerobic digestion (AD) facilities across the UK. Plans to use a new carbon tax on UK […]
Scottish Anaerobic Digestion Industry’s Astonishing Year of Growth 2015
Scotland’s anaerobic digestion (AD) industry has grown by nearly 70%t in the last year, according to 2015 figures.
Hydrolysis of Sewage Sludge and Anaerobic Digestion Wins
The hydrolysis of sewage sludge and the subsequent anaerobic digestion of the hydrolysed sludge output is becoming increasingly common at many sewage works. We think we are justified to call it a winning combination, and we even back up this assertion by providing information on a new contract win for the technology by Veolia, in […]
What is Biomethane and Anaerobic Digestion Gas to Grid Definition
It is a good question to ask; “What is biomethane and anaerobic digestion gas to grid”, but for the first part (biomethane) don’t expect always to get the same answer! Many people use the term biomethane interchangeably as if it means the same as biogas. In fact, when the term “biomethane” is used correctly the […]
Anaerobic Digestion Plants
In this section of the website we explain Anaerobic Digestion Plants by country and the progress in recent years which has been made in the implementation of AD technology in each. For convenience we have split each country into a page, as listed and linked below: Anaerobic Digestion Plants UK Anaerobic Digestion Plants Scotland Anaerobic […]
Anaerobic Digestate Disposal, or Use as a Natural Fertilizer?
The question as to whether to go for Digestate Disposal, or use it as a Natural Fertilizer is important, and not a simple one to determine. Digestate from any wet anaerobic digestion process comprises both a liquid and a fibrous solid material. As we plan Anaerobic Digestion Plants the question arises for each site as […]
UK Biogas Funding for Biofuels CHP RO FiTs and RHI – Looking Back 10 Years
To understand the historical background to policy on UK Biogas Funding for Biofuels and CHP (Combined Heat and Power Installations), RO (the now-defunct Renewables Obligation), FiTs (Feed-in-Tariff closed) and the RHI (Renewable Heat Incentive – still current but for how long?*) it is necessary to go back 10 years to 2011 and the “Anaerobic Digestion […]
Anaerobic Digestion Feasibility Study List of 10 Examples
Have you ever considered doing an Anaerobic Digestion Feasibility Study? If you are wondering about whether or not to build your own biogas plant, sooner or later most people consider embarking on an Anaerobic Digestion Feasibility Study. You can do these yourself, but generally, it is better to bring in a biogas expert to work […]
UK Tax Relief for Renewable Energy Companies – “Claim UK Tax Back” Partnership Announced
All businesses should get UK Tax Relief and claim tax back for what they spend on Research and Development and benefit fully from UK tax relief for the R&D work they undertake. That’s official! Chancellor of the Exchequer, Rishi Sunak, has made it clear that to encourage innovation in British businesses, he wants to see a […]
Biogas Analysis and Gas Quality Monitoring of Anaerobic Digestion Processes
Biogas analysis and maximizing the efficiency of anaerobic digestion plants is gaining more attention as the anaerobic digestion industry matures. If you are seeking to find out more about this topic, read-on, because this article is for you! With the rapidly increasing global awareness that the world must decarbonize or suffer huge problems and costs […]
Anaerobic Digestion of Kitchen Waste – All You Need to Know
The anaerobic digestion of kitchen waste (also known as food waste anaerobic digestion) has become of great interest in recent years due to the high organic removal rates and positive net energy balance which can be achieved in well designed and competently operated anaerobic digestion plants. Anaerobic digestion is recognised by the UK government, Defra, the […]
Is My Waste Suitable for Anaerobic Digestion?
“Is my waste suitable for anaerobic digestion?”, is a frequent question we receive in our emails. It comes from those considering installing agricultural AD systems, and businesses that produce food waste especially. There are two immediate considerations for any answer, the first is to say that more or less any organic material can be anaerobically […]
