Anaerobic Digestion Research Center
The Anaerobic Digestion Research Center (ADRC) focuses on converting organic waste into renewable energy through a process called anaerobic digestion. This process breaks down organic materials, such as food scraps or animal manure, using microorganisms in the absence of oxygen. The result is biogas, which can be used for electricity and heat, and digestate, a nutrient-rich substance that can improve soil health. The ADRC conducts research to enhance this technology, making it more efficient and environmentally friendly, helping to reduce waste and contribute to sustainable energy solutions.
