Biogas as a Fuel Source
Over the last thirty years, the use of biogas as a renewable fuel source has not only become a well-understood field of expertise, it has also become an attractive investment as it fulfils many of the criteria laid down by legislation designed to meet International...
Ammonia – A Much Maligned Mixture
Unless, unlike me, you are a bit of a boffin, ammonia and how it benefits us does not figure much in our awareness. In fact, to many, it is a much-maligned mixture of elements. After all, it smells terrible to most people and if it is concentrated to high levels, such...
Climate Change and the COVID Crisis
April 2020. A global pandemic has taken the world by surprise and, although it is still too early to fully appreciate the consequences, the auguries for a rapid recovery do not appear to be encouraging. The drive towards renewable energy and the implementation of the...
Removal, Recovery and Re-use of Ammoniacal Nitrogen from Wastewater for Power Generation
Power generation from the ammonia contained in wastewater at first sounds a bit like a green-lobby dream.

The Tree of Plenty
The palm tree from which oil is harvested is perhaps one of the most versatile crops known to man and an important element for the implementation of the circular economy (Figure 1). As the diagram below indicates, the list of products obtainable from palm oil is very...
