About biogas digesters
An anaerobic digester turns suitable slurry into biogas. The project covers more than the tank: gas cleaning and safety, using the gas for heat and power or other purposes, and handling the digestate. Stable feedstock, operating skills and permits are as important as the equipment.
Common configurations
Reactor types
Chosen for the slurry and climate.
Combined heat and power
Electricity and heat from the gas.
Other gas uses
Boilers or other uses.
Selection checklist
Before we send a layout or quotation, we confirm these points with you.
| Point to confirm | Why we ask |
|---|---|
| Feedstock stability | Consistent supply and quality. |
| Reactor conditions | Temperature and retention. |
| Gas safety | Detection and protection. |
| Use of heat and power | Where energy is used. |
| Digestate | Solid and liquid outputs. |
| Operation and permits | Staff, service and approvals. |
Dimensions, materials and quantities are confirmed for each project.
Scope of supply
| Usually in the package | Agreed in each contract |
|---|---|
| In-house scrapers and their drives | Civil works for pits, channels and lagoons |
