[Digestion] DOC Biogas potential

[David Fulford]

Robert and listers,

UASB - Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket a way to concentrate the solid 
components of waste water, so the bacteria can get at them (the bacteria 
and solid content form a sludge that sinks to the bottom of the reactor).

There is a web site on the subject, with a set of slides (see General 
Lecture at bottom of Contents page) at: http://www.uasb.org/index.htm

(Worth a link, Paul, from your Beginner's Guide to Biogas?)
