Energy From Waste

Waste can be broadly defined into four separate categories:
1. Animal waste (Pig or Cow manure)
2. Household waste (general rubbish)
3. Food waste (both household and supermarket waste)
4. Commercial waste (Tyres, grass, waster paper etc)
Many processes which generates power from these wastes produces methane through an anaerobic digestion process. Our machines are commonly used through this digestion process to clean and pressurise the methane ready for generating power. This is very similar to the process we have perfected in the sewage industry, and where are machines ahve been operating for over 60 years. This uses the same anaerobic digestion as waste.
Northey have also been involved with pyrogas projects, burning other types of waste to produce energy. The great advatage of the Northey product is its robustness - with no vanes to clog, or oil which may get contaminited it is the perfect product to deal with dirty and corrsoive gasses often given off by these processes.
