New Anaerobic Digestion Plant

Jun 13 2011

The UK’s largest food waste recycler PDM, has confirmed the companies building its industry-leading ReFood anaerobic digestion (AD) plant. To construct the £12m plant, PDM has appointed a number of local companies, as well as bringing expertise from Europe.

PDM has brought across European expertise in AD plant construction through Bigadan, one of Europe’s leading providers in the design, manufacture and operation of AD plants and Form-tec, a German company specialising in the construction of concrete biogas digesters.

Clarke Energy, the UK’s leading provider of power generation will provide engines and generators suitable for use with biogas.

PDM’s ReFood plant will also include an innovative depackaging plant which will include equipment supplied by TMA, who provided similar equipment for plants built for PDM’s German partner, SARIA.

Philip Simpson, commercial director at PDM, comments: “We’re delighted to have identified all the key partners in the construction of our first ReFood plant in Doncaster. As a company, we are focused on supporting our local community and a key part of our selection process was inviting local contractors to tender and we’re very pleased to have two local companies delivering the build. 

“However, the ReFood technology is very new to the UK, so it was also important to bring in expertise from Europe to provide skills and knowledge in building a large-scale biogas plant. We look forward to seeing the plant take shape over the coming months.”
