Food sector demo project DECC & DEFRA funds Award winning design 1000m3 CSR digester KEY MARKET – DAIRY INDUSTRY
Industrial digestion systems need to handle liquid and solid residues, plus by-products, including those containing fats and sugars. On-site AD should combines treatment efficiency with significant cost reduction and carbon savings. Opportunities for on-site plants in these sectors: Food and Drink Dairy Distilleries Bio-fuels
