Summary

​This project involves an investigation into an automated solution for bio-energy and waste water treatment at a large beef abattoir. The technology under investigation is capable of providing a sustainable source of energy that can meet a significant portion of the abattoirs energy requirements, dramatically reducing the GHG emissions and create renewable fertiliser from the by-product of the waste to energy process.
