Foreword
Biomethane,
produced through anaerobic digestion (AD) is being used to mitigate shortages
of natural gas caused by the geopolitical situation in Europe. However, it is
also utilised because it can transform a wide range of residues, producing
useful products and reducing the global warming impact of methane released
during natural decomposition of these biodegradable materials. AD creates a
market value for residues which helps to improve the income streams of rural
economies and also produces valuable by-products such as digestate fertiliser.
The methane products are more than an energy source, they are a key pathway in
global decarbonisation efforts for a wide range of sectors.
There has been a lot of interest and activity in
AD and biomethane from within and outside the UK recently. In Northern Ireland
(NI) anaerobic digestion has been rapidly deployed through...
