Moore Concrete recently for potential customers to visit working Biogas Plants in Denmark.
Moore Concrete who have already erected over 35 Above Ground Slurry Stores in N. Ireland, recently organised a visit to Denmark for prospective suctomers to inspect working Biogas Plants.
Cow slurry, pig slurry, poultry manure, maize and food waste can be used to produce heat and electricity. "The farmer can heat his neighbours' farms as well as his own farm, and sell surplus electricity to the National Grid" explained Sales Manager John Parkinson.
The group visited the pig farm of Bent Pedersen who installed a 160kW Biogas Plant in 2002. The plant is producing 1.2million kW of electricity per year. This design of Biogas Plant was developed by Lundsby Bioenergy of Denmark.
"We chose the Lundsby Above Ground Stores not only because of their efficiency, safety and long life, but because the stores are ready for conversion to Biogas Plants". Moore Concrete will be installing the Biogas Plants in Ireland and UK in conjunction with Lundsby Bioenergy of Denmark.
