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 […]
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 […]
Top Tips for Starting an Anaerobic Digestion Plant
Are you thinking about starting your own anaerobic digestion plant? Anaerobic digestion is becoming increasingly popular as a sustainable energy source, which is good timing with the rising energy costs leading many to turn to renewable energy as a way to save money. Of course, there are also environmental benefits to using renewable energy, which […]
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 […]
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 […]
Anaerobic Digester Mixer by Landia Helping Yorkshire Water to Net-Zero Carbon by 2030
Two anaerobic digester mixer systems recently supplied by Landia are helping Yorkshire Water to progress with carbon emissions savings toward their target of Net-Zero carbon emission across the company by 2030. High levels of biogas yield are also being achieved which indicate that these digesters are being well-mixed. Read more about the use of this […]
Sewage Sludge Digestion – Ofwat UK Rule Changes Allow Outsourced Treatment
Five years ago, in this article, we announced that sewage sludge digestion would be put out to tender as an outsourced service by many, or all UK water companies. The opinion we gave was that there would be big opportunities from Ofwat for companies to take sewage sludge and co-digest it. We looked forward to […]
Small Scale Anaerobic Digestion for Supermarkets Takes Leap Forward
Small scale anaerobic digestion for supermarkets “Takes Leap Forward”, we said in June 2016 when SeAB Energy announced their first small scale package anaerobic digestion plant It is true that a handful of the UK’s largest and most successful supermarkets generate biogas from food waste to power their operations. They save money on trash disposal […]
ADBA Urges COP26 President to Support Anaerobic Digestion
In a letter to Alok Sharma, President of the United Nations Conference of Parties on Climate Change (COP26), which the UK will host in November, a group of 19 organizations, led by the UK Anaerobic Digestion and Bioresources Association (ADBA), has urged the minister to become an advocate.

3 Anaerobic Digestion Process Feedstock Materials Including Chocolate
Anaerobic digestion is turning not only cow – well you know – dung, into environmentally-friendly energy to heat and power your home, but also tannery (leather making) wastes, and even rejected chocolate.
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 […]
