Construction of a new Marches Biogas Anaerobic Digestion plant will commence this month for commercial composting specialists Agripost Ltd. who are based on Lower House Farm in Shropshire.
The AD system will initially be small scale completely stirred tank reactor (CSTR) digester but is being designed to be flexible with provision to expand the scale of the plant at a later date. The AD plant will augment the current garden waste recycling infrastructure at Agripost and will be used primarily to deal with the effluent produced from the composting process.
The site in the village of Cardeston, just a few miles from Shrewsbury already composts around 15,000 tonnes of green garden waste each year from local authority contracts. This will further help to diversify the farm and increase its environmental activities. The farm already hosts the largest on-farm composting operation in Shropshire and the largest photo-voltaic array in Shropshire too!
