Is there any point in looking at a slurry and fym based digester? Or have I missed the boat? Anybody successfully running one and which is the best?!?!
Have been toying with the idea for a long time! I am also looking at a biolectric 44! But not sure if we have missed the boat! Is there anybody out there that has slurry based digesters working, that can give me their advice on makes/dealers? Anything appreciated!! Thanks
I was hopeing it would tidy the place up ! What sort of systems are you working with and where are you based?
Presumably any small slurry based AD system would operate under a T24, which nowhere mentions a Technically Competent Manager. Obviously any plant needs a competent operator but nothing formally defined.

There was a open day at Staffordshire! I came away impressed but confused about it all to be honest! Dairy energy which is a consultancy business hosted it! I think it wasn't far from stone!Where abouts did you see the biolectric? I'm wanting to go and have a look at one.
Is a T24 ok to spread your own digestate on your own land?We have been running under a T24 for some time, and U10 for digestate application. Previously under a Para 12. As far as we are concerned the major drawback is the 400 kW maximum input (not electrical output) which we just scrape under with our CHP. We also have a boiler for use when CHP is being serviced, and had to get a special dispensation to use T24 via our MP, certifiying that we could not use CHP and boiler together.
We could not get under SR16 as we are too close to houses and boreholes, the plant was installed before these restrictions were introduced, and obviously cannot be moved.
For a slurry only digester, why go for anything other than T24?
