The document discusses the development of the digestate market in the UK. It provides data showing that the number of anaerobic digestion (AD) sites in the UK has grown significantly between 2013 and 2014, with the majority being on farms. Currently most digestate is applied to agricultural lands, totaling over 2 million tonnes in 2013. However, some argue that agriculture may not need digestate in the future. Alternative options for digestate usage are explored, such as converting it into biogas at sugar refineries. Overall the future of the digestate market is uncertain.

This document discusses the importance of on-farm anaerobic digestion (AD) to farmers and the UK. It notes that AD provides benefits to farmers such as diversification of income sources, generating value from manure and slurry, receiving index-linked income from incentives like feed-in tariffs and the renewable heat incentive, achieving energy self-sufficiency, controlling weeds, reducing reliance on mineral fertilizers, and protecting the environment. The document also states that if the 100 million tonnes of potential biomass in the UK was used for AD, it could generate 20 terawatt hours of biogas energy per year and provide significant greenhouse gas savings.

The digestate market is developing but careful planning is needed. Digestate provides nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium as well as organic matter. However, legislation and codes of practice require matching nutrient application to crop requirements to avoid overapplication. Storage may be necessary since wet weather can close application windows. While digestate offers benefits, its recycling requires careful management to balance benefits against costs.

Most AD plants in 2013 spread digestate straight to land without separating it first. A survey found digestate management cost the average plant -£3.73/tonne, totaling an estimated £7.9 million cost to the industry. As AD capacity increases, the amount of digestate produced is also growing rapidly at a time when key support mechanisms for the industry like feed-in tariffs are decreasing. There is potential to increase the value of digestate fiber from £5/tonne as fertilizer to £100/tonne by using it as a horticultural growing medium.

Charlotte Morton, ADBA
Charlotte Morton, Chief Executive of the Anaerobic Digestion and Bioresources Association (ADBA), welcomed attendees to the conference and discussed the potential and current contribution of anaerobic digestion (AD) in the UK. AD could meet 30% of UK domestic gas demand, cut greenhouse gas emissions by 4%, replace 10% of artificial fertilizers, and create 35,000 jobs. Currently, AD recycles 1.6 million tons of food waste annually, generates over 7TWh of biogas, provides over 20,000 m3 of biomethane per hour, and employs 4,500 people. Morton calls for increased support of AD to help realize its potential.
Anaerobic Digestion deployment in the UK
The document summarizes anaerobic digestion deployment in the United Kingdom. It finds that as of 2014, there were 157 operational anaerobic digestion plants, with 415 plants under development. Most plants are currently farm-fed or waste-fed. Future deployment is projected to quadruple capacity by 2017 if all plants under development are completed. However, only 30-50% of proposed plants are expected to be realized. Food waste and manure availability may constrain further growth, leading developers to rely more on energy crops which could require over 80,000 hectares of land if all proposed plants are built.

The document discusses the challenges with using digestate as a fertilizer. It notes that the inherent fertilizer value of digestate is modest, especially in the autumn, but that digestate can be more valuable than just the sum of its nutrients. However, waste-derived digestates are difficult to upgrade to increase their value. While digestate has some nutrient value as a fertilizer, this value is usually not enough to cover the costs of recovering and processing the digestate. Operators may need to upgrade digestate to guarantee having a market for it.
Richard Swannell, WRAP
This document discusses the current state and future direction of waste policy in the UK. It notes that while anaerobic digestion of food waste has increased, the rate of adopting food waste collection is slowing. Two main challenges are addressed: increasing household food waste collection through collaboration between industry and local authorities, and developing higher value uses for digestate to improve the economics of anaerobic digestion plants. The document advocates an action plan to maximize food waste collection and supply to anaerobic digestion. It also suggests using innovative technologies and a biorefinery approach to transform digestate into new platform chemicals, nutrients, and other products in order to revolutionize anaerobic digestion and waste management.
Waste Prevention Programme NI
This document discusses the issue of food waste being dumped down drains in the UK. It estimates that over 2 million tonnes of food waste, costing £2,000 per tonne, is dumped down drains in the UK each year. This waste comes from commercial outlets like restaurants and hospitals, with as much as 50% of commercial food waste going down drains. Dumping food waste down drains is the least preferable waste management option according to regulations, as it can cause problems like sewer flooding and increase rodent populations. The document advocates for using food traps and enforcing limits on food in trade effluent to prevent food waste from entering drainage systems.

Ann Ballinger, Eunomia
Ann Ballinger from Eunomia Research & Consulting presented the results of a cost benefit analysis of different options for managing digestate from anaerobic digestion in Wales. The analysis considered eight options including applying whole digestate to agricultural land, dilution to different dry solid percentages, various treatment processes, and transport distances. The results showed that applying whole digestate to land was the best option environmentally but that financial costs increased with additional processing. Dilution to 20% dry solids with 80km transport had the lowest overall costs. Biological oxidation of liquor followed by discharge to watercourses was also competitive. Longer transport distances favored treatment before land application.
David Tompkins, Aqua Enviro

This document summarizes a feasibility study on improving food waste collection from small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Birmingham, UK. The study engaged with 12 SME food businesses to assess interest in food waste recycling. While 9 expressed initial interest, none implemented a food waste collection service due to barriers like high collection costs, lack of business owner time and priorities, and insufficient container and collection frequency options. The study recommends actions like weight-based residual waste pricing, collective procurement to lower costs, and regulatory requirements to increase food waste diversion from landfills and incineration.
Trevor Nicoll, Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council
Trevor Nicoll from Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council discussed improving food waste collections within businesses and local authorities. He described providing green kerbside food waste caddies for weekly collection and silver kitchen caddies for raw and cooked food waste. Improving collections requires communication with stickers and liners, support through education, and involvement through school and business programs. The panel discussed best practices with organizations including the Organic Resource Agency and Biogas Weser-Ems GmbH.
Terry Brownhilll, PROjEN
This document summarizes a panel discussion on risk management training and competence for the biogas industry. The panelists discussed developing robust training for plant operators and managers to safely operate biogas plants. They addressed mapping risks prior to plant development and increasing knowledge through guidance documents. The panel emphasized reducing the risk of non-compliant operations, given the relatively low barriers to entry in the biogas sector. Key risks included gas/fire/explosions, working in confined spaces, loss of containment harming the environment, and hazards to operators from materials like biogas, sludge and foaming. The goal is reducing business risks early to develop a competent and safe biogas industry.
Sonya Bedford, Stephens Scown
This document summarizes a panel discussion on developing successful business plans for anaerobic digestion projects. The panelists include representatives from law, finance, and engineering firms. They emphasize that risk mitigation is key to standing out to funders. Business plans should identify risks like issues in commissioning, design, feedstocks, and control/monitoring and detail how the project will address each risk. The executive summary is especially important and should be no more than two pages, clearly conveying the project fundamentals to influence the funding decision.
Rokiah Yaman, LEAP
This document discusses the benefits of local anaerobic digestion (AD) for community engagement and planning. It proposes using micro AD systems in urban areas where there is a large volume of food waste and demand for food and jobs. Engaging the local community is key - AD could be implemented in social housing, universities, parks, and other community spaces. Environmental benefits include reducing greenhouse gas emissions by diverting waste from landfill. Closed-loop opportunities exist for food waste collection, operating and maintaining AD systems, and using digestate for urban agriculture. The document advocates designing an accredited training program to teach assembly, operation, and maintenance of micro AD systems.
Mandy Stoker, E4environment

Maja Rosiak, Xylem
Maja Rosiak from Xylem Water Solutions presented on digester mixing systems and health and safety aspects. She discussed Xylem's Flygt biogas mixer portfolio including compact mixers, mid-size mixers, low-speed mixers, top entry agitators, and jet mixers. Flygt compact mixers are versatile, reliable, and highly configurable for corrosive and abrasive fluids. Flygt jet mixers use dry installation with N-technology for sustained high efficiency and no clogging.
Les Gornall, PROjEN
There are frequent accidents at anaerobic digestion plants during construction and operation due to gas explosions and exposure to toxic hydrogen sulfide gas. Many of these accidents are preventable through proper risk mitigation measures. During construction, risks can be reduced through adherence to the Construction Design and Management regulations, which require principal designers and careful attention to interfaces between equipment. During operation, permanent gas monitoring, confined space procedures, training, and permit-to-work programs can help protect workers from gas exposure. Incident reports show common risks involve maintenance activities, mixing of feedstocks, and overloading of digesters leading to gas release.
John Quinton-Barber, Social Communications
This document discusses the benefits of community engagement and planning for local anaerobic digestion (AD) projects. It notes that 15 years ago, new mobile phone base stations faced opposition through misinformation campaigns, but regulating the industry, auditing claims, and ensuring accountability helped address this. The document advocates responding strongly to any misinformation about AD projects, educating journalists, reassuring communities with facts, and emphasizing that the industry is regulated, audited and accountable. It introduces a panel discussing community engagement and planning for local AD projects.
Jane Gilbert, Carbon Clarity
1) The UK's anaerobic digestion industry has grown rapidly over the past decade but there have been notable pollution incidents in recent years.
2) Carbon Clarity was engaged to develop a training roadmap for the industry to improve operational track record and compliance. They conducted a study identifying training priorities.
3) Key priority areas for training identified were environmental protection, health and safety, and effective operational management of digesters. Training is needed for managerial, technical, supervisory, and operative roles.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.
ENVIRONMENT~ Renewable Energy Sources and their future prospects.
This presentation is for us to know that how our Environment need Attention for protection of our natural resources which are depleted day by day that's why we need to take time and shift our attention to renewable energy sources instead of non-renewable sources which are better and Eco-friendly for our environment. these renewable energy sources are so helpful for our planet and for every living organism which depends on environment.
Recycling and Disposal on SWM Raymond Einyu pptx
Increasing urbanization, rural–urban migration, rising standards of living, and rapid development associated with population growth have resulted in increased solid waste generation by industrial, domestic and other activities in Nairobi City. It has been noted in other contexts too that increasing population, changing consumption patterns, economic development, changing income, urbanization and industrialization all contribute to the increased generation of waste.
With the increasing urban population in Kenya, which is estimated to be growing at a rate higher than that of the country’s general population, waste generation and management is already a major challenge. The industrialization and urbanization process in the country, dominated by one major city – Nairobi, which has around four times the population of the next largest urban centre (Mombasa) – has witnessed an exponential increase in the generation of solid waste. It is projected that by 2030, about 50 per cent of the Kenyan population will be urban.
Aim:
A healthy, safe, secure and sustainable solid waste management system fit for a world – class city.
Improve and protect the public health of Nairobi residents and visitors.
Ecological health, diversity and productivity and maximize resource recovery through the participatory approach.
Goals:
Build awareness and capacity for source separation as essential components of sustainable waste management.
Build new environmentally sound infrastructure and systems for safe disposal of residual waste and replacing current dumpsites which should be commissioned.
Current solid waste management situation:
The status.
Solid waste generation rate is at 2240 tones / day
collection efficiently is at about 50%.
Actors i.e. city authorities, CBO’s , private firms and self-disposal
Current SWM Situation in Nairobi City:
Solid waste generation – collection – dumping
Good Practices:
• Separation – recycling – marketing.
• Open dumpsite dandora dump site through public education on source separation of waste, of which the situation can be reversed.
• Nairobi is one of the C40 cities in this respect , various actors in the solid waste management space have adopted a variety of technologies to reduce short lived climate pollutants including source separation , recycling , marketing of the recycled products.
• Through the network, it should expect to benefit from expertise of the different actors in the network in terms of applicable technologies and practices in reducing the short-lived climate pollutants.
Good practices:
Despite the dismal collection of solid waste in Nairobi city, there are practices and activities of informal actors (CBOs, CBO-SACCOs and yard shop operators) and other formal industrial actors on solid waste collection, recycling and waste reduction.
Practices and activities of these actor groups are viewed as innovations with the potential to change the way solid waste is handled.
CHALLENGES:
• Resource Allocation.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.
