Anaerobic treatment involves microorganisms’ biological breakdown of organic matter in an oxygen-free environment. This process generates biogas, primarily composed of methane and carbon dioxide, as well as a stabilised residue known as digestate. The anaerobic treatment efficiently manages organic waste such as sewage, agricultural, and food waste while minimising its environmental impact.
