Anaerobic Digestion Plant wins approval
The drive towards renewable energy production within the agricultural industry is now gathering momentum and one such project is at Wrangle,
near Boston.
Out of specification vegetable, leaves and roots etc from the pack houses will be used to create methane that is then burned to produce e
lectricity for cold stores etc. The resultant material, or digestate, is put back on the land as fertilizer at the end of the process.
Our proposal was developed following pre-application discussions with Planning and Environmental Health Officers, together with the
Environment Agency. Planning permission was granted in July.
Work will start shortly on the plant with energy production due to commence early in 2010.
We are now working on a further plant in Lincolnshire and another on the Isle of Wight for our clients.
