As we like to say … it all starts with the feedstock. .

In the biogas industry, feedstock is the organic material that is used to produce biogas through a biological process called Anaerobic Digestion. The suitability of feedstock depends on factors such as  energy content, moisture content, carbon-to-nitrogen ratio, organic loading and ease of digestion by microorganisms. Some feedstocks are readily available, others may require pre-treatment or de-packaging to improve their digestibility.

Understanding the feedstock in the biogas industry is crucial to consider the overall biological health of the Anaerobic Digestion process, to determine the quantity and quality of biogas produced and to manage the resultant digestate.
