A seminar on co-digestion is to be held on 20th May in Glasgow, UK. In the UK, co-digestion is almost always considered to involve a mixture of sewage with another waste type such as food waste or source-separated household waste. However a vast range of organic materials can be co-digested including animal manures, silage, paper wastes and other industrial organic wastes. Studies undertaken both at a laboratory-scale in the UK and at full-scale in Europe have demonstrated clearly that many problematic, or difficult to digest wastes are rendered digestible if co-digested in admixture with other suitable waste types. »» 0 comment(s)
