Around 215 million tonnes of household waste is generated across the United Kingdom each year. Reliable statistics clearly reveal that Britain’s mountain of waste can fill the nation’s largest lake, Lake Windermere in just eight months. If the waste was deposited into Albert Hall, London, it would be full in… Continue reading
A biogas plant produces two main products – biogas and digestate; both can be further processed or utilized to produce secondary outputs. Biogas can be used for producing electricity and heat, as a natural gas substitute and also a transportation fuel. On the other hand, the digestate from the anaerobic… Continue reading
Humic acid is nature’s own fertilizer, contributing to enhanced soil health and better crop yield. Humic acid is derived from the decomposition of organic matter. In this article, we will discuss the science behind humic acid, its major uses and the key benefits it brings to the agricultural sector. Humic… Continue reading
