Planet Biogas UK has been contracted to supply anaerobic digestion technology to a 500kW plant in Shropshire, England that will be fed by cattle manure from surrounding farms.
Excavation and concrete works for the Bitterley Biogas plant’s digester have been completed and commissioning is planned at the start of September, Planet Biogas said.
The plant will process 9000 tones of manure and 4000 tons of crop-based feedstock to generate enough energy to power around 1000 households in the area.
Planet Biogas UK is a unit of German biofuels plant developer Planet Biogastechnik.
