Teg and Co-Located IVC and AD
TEG Group was an early starter in the organic waste processing scene when only composting plants were being built. We presume that they now also operate some of these green waste composting plants with added AD facilities.
On their web site they point out the clear advantages which are present when both in-vessel composting facilities and AD plants are co-located on the same sites.
Some of the plus points are:
Flexibility to process any particular waste stream arriving at the gate through the best process for that type of waste
Ability to co-compost digestate with green waste for a high quality stabilised product
Flexibility during maintenance of AD plant equipment to continue to process waste through the facility.
A case study which shows a Teg Composting Plant and which is available on their web site is the Banham Compost Facility banhm Compost is a subsidiary of Banham Poultry Limited, located in Attleborough, Norfolk.
