Marches Biogas are proud to sponsor IGEM’s upcoming Event ‘From Waste to Energy: Unlocking the Potential of Biogas and Biomethane. Our very own Tom Goodwin will be providing an introduction to the AD process for the delegates. He will introduce the principles of sourcing appropriate feedstocks and good digester design, as well as also covering the operational and process considerations unique to the AD process and what needs to be kept in mind when producing gas from a biological process.
If you are interested in attending the event, please follow the link to book your place:

At Marches Biogas, we understand that the synergy between mechanical and biological processes is key to efficient biogas production.
The mechanical processes create the optimum conditions for the anaerobic bacteria to thrive, ensuring they are fed on a regular basis, with effective heating and mixing systems.
That’s why our mechanical and biological teams collaborate seamlessly to offer comprehensive support for the entire process.
Interested in learning more about how we can enhance your biological and mechanical processes? Contact us today.

Mass balance is an important concept to understand in relation to the design and operation of biogas plants. The mass of the feedstock is equal to the mass of the biogas and the mass of the digestate. Understand more about the basics of mass balance within our first e-learning module, with more detail on inputs and outputs in the second e-learning module. Both modules provide key learning for anyone new to the AD process. https://www.marchesbiogas.com/services/e-learning

A great morning to be out with Hussar Lightning Protection carrying out checks on a lightning protection system on a waste water site. Earthing values can change over time depending on the ground conditions so it’s important to monitor these on a regular basis together with the condition of the installation to ensure they are sufficient to fully protect your equipment.

Marches Biogas has recently been busy working in the east of the country for Anglian Water where we have been designing and installing biogas pipework to connect two new digesters to the existing biogas system with the incorporation of a larger flare. Our team of design engineers have been working to ensure that they consider biogas flow rates, working pressure, management of over and under pressure events, together with the handling of condensate drop out and foam.

This week our engineers were busy onsite removing mixer lances from a live digester using a tandem crane lift to allow them to jet out and service the nozzles at ground level before carefully repositioning them back into the digesters. This work took careful planning and multiple back up plans in the event of not being able to replace the mixer back into position.
