Oaktech acquire new AD process technology IBR

oaktech — Fri, 23 Sep 2011 11:51:15 +0000

Oaktech have become exclusive UK and Eire licensees of a new type of anaerobic digestion technology, the Induced Bed Reactor. Drawing on the strengths of the two most common forms of anaerobic digestion, CSTR and UASB, IBR is a hybrid of these processes. It is able to treat feedstock with a high solids content (up to 12%) as CSTR, but has the biological efficiency of UASB where microbial consortia are allowed to form naturally. As a result IBR technology is a robust process with a high methane output.

CIWM/RWM Exhibition

2011 has moved on swiftly and we find ourselves already in September with the CIWM/RWM Exhibition
and conference upon us next week.

Having merged into a single event this year, the CIWM/RWM
show provides an excellent opportunity to meet contacts and witness new
businesses try to develop in the UK waste sector. It will be interesting to see
how the new merged event is perceived. In our experience the RWM provided the
opportunity to speak to mainly equipment providers with the
CIWM/Futuresource being focussed more on solutions. The combination of the two
should create an excellent forum for the many different stakeholders with an
interest in the growing waste sector here in the UK.

Oaktech won’t be exhibiting this year but will be taking the opportunity over
the Tuesday 13th and Wednesday 14th to visit the show and meet a number of
colleagues, old and new.

We look forward to seeinng you there.

Welcome to the first blog by Oaktech Environmental

We will use this blog to provide comment on the AD and waste sectors. We do not intend for the blog to be a marketing tool but a source of information for Anaerobic Digestion in the UK.

To begin with, there have been many developments in the AD sector over the past month or two. Both the Feed-in Tariff and Renewable Heat Incentive have been set for AD, both of which will have potentially significant impact on the development of AD in this country.

See these links for further information on the FIT and RHI support schemes for AD and other renewable energy developments:
