They (the Ad units, and absolutely not animals) should be fed waste (that's not a reference to low yielding ground) ...
And that's all.
And that's all.
Oosh, whey is like liquid gold, they’ll be paying for that! Must be pas110 or food waste registered too then to have the storage tanks in place?The one along the road from work is about to start taking the cheese making waste from the Wensleydale creamery
I remember going to 1 and i asked how it was going and they said it was going well for 3 years until a lorry load of bananas had tipped on the motorway and they said they’d take it, AD plant onstop for months while they emptied it all out and had to re import good bacteria as they killed all their old bacteria with 29t of bananas in 1 day instead of doing 2t for 15 days.. it cost them a fortune in time and loss of income!
Did they chuck them all in in 1 day though? Any change in diet needs to be little and often for the bacteria to adapt, similar to an animal never having barley in its life then being locked in a grain store... disaster strikes.I know of one AD plant that took an artic load of Avocados, which was fine, but they didn't think about the big stones...
But sustainable it most definitely is.yes but how much energy has been consumed to extract it , is my point , it dosn't stack up. As said above its a government con to meet so called green energy , but green its most definitely not .
I don’t get why they aren’t pushing them more for manure. Why bitch our cows produce too much methane but then grow corn for digesters instead of using that cow sh!t?
Sure corn may make more energy but it’s not a byproduct....

I don’t understand the process either, but when cattle are fed soya shipped around the world and grass and maize grown in the uk is being ‘digested’ to make subsidised energy you do have to wonder...
Good point . I'm thinking more than the ad .I wonder how much electricity would be produced by using all the diesel burned in growing/feeding/spreading process to just run big diesel generators instead.

Doubt the global data figures take into account the huge distances some of these guys are hauling the stuff. Probably a statisticians best guesstimate.Nearly five times as much out as in if you use spuds, but spuds snot up the digesters with sand. Only twice as much if you use rye. Global not UK data.
