Abstract :
In May 2010 the UK Government committed to work towards a `zero waste´ economy, and to introduce measures to increase energy from waste through Anaerobic Digestion (AD). This paper presents a system targeting the urban environment which would be configured to produce energy and biofertiliser from biowaste feedstock via AD using Combined Heat and Power (CHP), solar and absorption technology.
