Modern society produces ever-increasing quantities of waste materials, which (in well populated countries such as the UK) are causing political, environmental and financial concerns.
A new economic and environmentally viable treatment and conversion of wastes containing organic material has been developed. A major breakthrough in the form of the internationally patented Bioplex ® process which is being developed as a commercial, economic and environmentally acceptable alternative to landfill, mass incineration and sea disposal.
The Bioplex process can include the Portagester ®, a revolutionary new pre-composter and anaerobic fermenter for the treatment of farm and horse stable manures; food and catering wastes; trade, garden and local authority wastes. The Portagester can be used as an add-on to conventional anaerobic digesters or supplied as a complete system.
Depending to some extent upon the type of feedstock being treated, the plant is relatively odourless, clean and compact; sealed vessels prevent cross-contamination and disease risk from birds, rodents and insects.
The fermented and composted solid material can be used as organic fertiliser-rich fibre for soil conditioning and as a growing medium, with the environmental and political advantages of replacing peat and petrochemical based fertilisers. Separated liquid can be treated in an anaerobic digester (AD) to produce biogas - an energy source.
After several years of research and development (see news and updates) and extended testing, the final digesters as products will become available later this year or early next.
Please note that the company Bioplex Technologies Ltd is currently subject to ownership and management changes.
