Inside the
digestion chamber
It’s dark, hot and airless
Perfect habitat for millions of bacteria to get to work
Hard working bacteria need to be monitored to make sure they’re happy and healthy
The digestate is either re-used as part of the super smoothie or turned into fertiliser for our crops or compost for sale.
The biogas rises to the top, and is piped to the cogeneration unit, where it’s used to generate electricity
Where poo becomes power
The cogeneration unit houses two large engines and two turbines; it's powered by the biogas piped in from the AD chamber
