Farmers flock to hear biogas update
Some 80 farmers, technology providers, engineers, regulators and academics discussed the barriers to, and potential of, an on-farm biogas industry.
Guest speakers looked at the Green Farm project, an SFI-funded collaboration between NUIG, Teagasc and WIT. The project is led by NUIG’s Professor Xinmin Zhan, Teagasc’s Peadar Lawlor and WIT’s Gillian Gardiner. It is investigating the technical and economic viability of on-farm anaerobic digestion of pig manure and food waste.
