Anaerobic Digestion

Anaerobic Digestion is the processing of biological materials such as food waste or specifically grown energy crops in a sealed airless environment. Doing this releases methane gas which is captured and then used in various ways.

The gas can be used to power a combined heat and power (CHP) engine which produces electricity and heat or the gas can be cleaned up and either exported to the gas grid or used in a normal gas type engine or heat requiring process.

Anaerobic Digestion is an established technology which has very good opportunities for the right processes.
