Anaerobic Digesters convert liquid organic waste into biogas
renewable energy + fertilizer Anaerobic digestion is a process
in which microorganisms break down biodegradable material in the
absence of oxygen to produce a combination of methane and carbon
dioxide that can be used to generate electricity and heat. The
residual digested material is a virtually odour and pathogen
free, organic slurry that can be used as an organic soil
amendment, an addition to composts, liquid plant nutrients etc.
Agricultural anaerobic digesters are situated on farms to
convert livestock manures into biogas. The benefits of
agricultural ADs are numerous, and go far beyond the advantages
of renewable energy production: farm odours are reduced;
bacterial pathogens are reduced; nutrients become more readily
available and more predictable to manage; and, digested
materials can be recycled as an odour-free crop nutrient. A key
environmental benefit is that the captured me
