AgriForValor AD Biogas Briefing Session

04 October 2017
Type Event Proceeding


Anaerobic Digestion (AD) is the conversion of feedstock (any organic non-woody material) by micro-organisms in the absence of oxygen into biogas and digestate. It is a natural process and is well understood by mankind having been harnessed for many years.

Dairy farming for example is dominated by small herds of animals, the slurry from which must be managed efficiently for the farm and to maintain high standards of health in a cost effective manner. AD is an acknowledged technology for farming operations that affords a high standard of manure management, the production of high quality biofertiliser and also the possibility of generating energy for own use as well as export.

This AgriForValor Briefing seminar was aimed at farmers, advisors, researchers as well as energy policy and decision makers and addressed the challenges relating to the economic and environmental sustainability of biogas production and utilisation.
