Rye-Grass as an Energy Crop Using Biogas Technology: Project Summary
Abstract:
The overall aim of this project is to prove that rye-grass in the UK is a viable energy crop for conversion to biogas.
The trials have shown that ryegrass requires more fertiliser that it can provide itself through its own digestate. It is suggested that slurry would be an ideal organic fertiliser to provide the grass with the extra nutrients it requires; it could also become an additional feedstock to co-digest with the grass enhancing the digestion process. This is especially important on a commercial scale where maximising methane production is vital.
