JPP was responsible for the steel frame structure design at the Anaerobic Digestion Plant in Rothwell, which included pits and jib arms for sorting the waste and push walls for removal/ loading of the fertiliser by-product.
The structure was designed to incorporate all the mechanical and electrical plant used to generate electricity from the biogas to feed back into the national grid.
Our Infrastructure Design team were also involved from the outset with Fernbrook Bio. Find out more about the services they provided by following the link below.

Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a biological process similar in many ways to composting, but without air. It is a natural treatment process and, as in composting, bacteria break down organic matter and reduce its bulk or “mass”. Its huge advantage is that it produces a gas called biogas which is just over 15% methane, and a clean-burning gas with huge potential for reducing carbon dioxide emissions.
