The first few months of 2025 have been among the most economically turbulent in recent history, but despite this there are still signs anaerobic digestion (AD) will continue to play a key role in boosting energy security, tackling climate change, and managing organic wastes. The global biogas market was estimated to be worth USD 65.53 billion in 2024 and is projected to expand 4.2% per year ...
Project BackgroundBrazil is the world’s leading producer and exporter of sugarcane, accounting for approximately 50% of global sugar production. Annually, the country produces around 654.8 million tonnes of sugarcane, 41.25 million tonnes of processed sugar, and 29.7 billion litres of ethanol. The substantial production volume positions Brazil as a global pioneer in biomass energy, particularly ...
Biogas-/Biomethane-production is becoming increasingly important worldwide. The optimisation of production in biogas plants is becoming important as state subsidies are being reduced and the efficiency of fermenters is becoming increasingly important. Consequently, it is essential to monitor the processes seamlessly during fermentation. MRU supports the optimum production process with the dynamic ...
Introduction Biogas, a renewable energy source produced from organic waste, plays a critical role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and providing sustainable energy. One of its primary components, methane, is essential for energy production, making its accurate measurement vital. This guide explores how to measure methane in biogas, best practices, and the advantages of Cambridge ...
Biogas production has evolved from a niche practice into a pivotal part of renewable energy, converting organic waste into a clean energy source. Wastewater treatment plants, food waste facilities, and landfill gas recovery systems utilise anaerobic digesters to break down organic matter. This digestion process produces biogas—a mixture of methane and carbon dioxide. Capturing this energy, ...
Clarke Energy USA has successfully designed and commissioned a combined heat and power (CHP) system in Clinton, Maine, aimed at maximising energy efficiency and reducing emissions. This CHP solution complements a biogas upgrading facility in the area. Peaks Renewables, in collaboration with Maine’s dairy industry, is developing renewable natural gas (RNG) locally at their anaerobic ...
In 2016 Dordtech has supplied and installed a Guascor Energy combined heat and power (CHP) with a 1,2 MWe ...

As the world increasingly turns to renewable energy sources to combat climate change and reduce dependency on fossil fuels, the role of precise gas analysis becomes ever more critical. Gas analysis is vital not only in the production and storage of renewable energies but also in ensuring their efficiency and environmental compliance. In this blog, we delve into the essential aspects of gas ...
Biomass fuel blending in Europe Europe has used biomass fuels on a large scale for more than 30 years. The UK has adopted the direct-fired co-combustion route for large coal-fired power plants and has continuously increased the proportion of biomass coupling. Through policy drive, cost management and safety control, it achieved multiple 100% biomass-fired thermal power plants in 2018. ...
Operations that upgrade to an EFC reactor system can expect to increase their biogas yields, increase flow rates, decrease the amount of sludge that must be disposed of, and produce high-quality effluent that can be ...
The transition to sustainable energy is a critical global goal, and biogas and syngas are emerging as significant contributors to this shift. Cambridge Sensotec’s advanced gas analysis technologies are playing a pivotal role in ensuring the efficient and effective use of these renewable energy ...
There is enormous potential to increase the extraction of energy from farm waste Agricultural waste is one of the largest sources of methane emitted into the atmosphere from human activities. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas but it’s also highly combustible, making it a valuable source of renewable energy when captured. Anaerobic digesters can convert farm waste into methane-rich ...
The benefits can be compelling, but several factors must be considered Anaerobic digestion is a biological process that breaks down organic matter in the absence of oxygen, producing biogas and nutrient-rich sludge. Used in wastewater treatment, anaerobic digestion helps reduce the volume of sludge, stabilizes the solids, and produces valuable biogas. The solid matter that remains, called the ...
Legislation has potential to boost biogas use across the US When anaerobic digestion is used to process wastewater with a high organic load, it produces energy in the form of biogas, a combination of methane, carbon dioxide, and other gases. In the United States, there is huge potential for expansion in anaerobic digestion, but even though the energy produced can more than pay for the treatment, ...
In the dairy industry, the production of biogas can be profitable, even for small farms Dairy farms must deal with wastewater that’s particularly high in organic matter and that can be challenging to deal with. However, establishing an on-farm anaerobic digestion plant that generates biogas from cattle slurry offers several benefits: It captures methane and converts it into a renewable ...
Anaerobic digestion can turn waste into a valuable resource Billions of tons of organic waste are generated every day by households, industries, and municipalities. It’s discarded into landfills or discharged as effluent, or both, at a huge cost to the environment. But what if that waste could be turned into energy? The good news is that it can, through anaerobic digestion. In anaerobic ...
Introduction to Gas Analysis and Renewable Energy The world stands on the precipice of an energy revolution. As we stride forward, the interplay between gas analysis and the burgeoning renewable energy sector is becoming ever more pronounced. This article delves deep into why gas analysis is essential, how it’s performed, and the integral role Cambridge Sensotec plays in this domain. The ...
Biogas, a methane-rich mix of gases created by anaerobic digestion, can be burned to generate electricity or heat, or it can be processed further to produce a valuable source of renewable energy. Different technologies can be used to tailor a solution that makes the most of specific feedstocks Anaerobic digestion is a natural biological process in which bacteria decompose organic matter in ...
MUYUAN FOOD CORPERATION(Stock Code:002714) Founded in 1992, after 29 years of development, it has now formed a comprehensive modern enterprise group with live pig breeding as the core, integrating feed processing, pig breeding, pig breeding, slaughtering and processing, with total assets of 190 billion yuan and 150,000 employees.
