Biogas Anaerobic Digester Considerations for Swine Farms in North Carolina Collecting biogas from anaerobic digestion of swine manure can benefit the environment by reducing methane emissions (has potential value for equivalent carbon credits or greenhouse gas (GHG) credits)‚ and by providing energy‚ as biogas is about 60 to 70 percent methane. Methane has an energy value of about 1‚000 BTU/SCF1‚ so biogas can have an energy value of about 600 BTU/SCF. Plug-flow or complete-mix anaerobic digesters

Carnivorous Plants In a world where plants are at the bottom of the food-chain‚ some individual plant species have evolved ways to reverse the order we expect to find in nature. These insectivorous plants‚ as they are sometimes called‚ are the predators ‚ rather than the passive prey. Adaptations such as odiferous lures and trapping mechanisms have made it possible for these photosynthesizers to capture‚ chemically break-down and digest insect prey (and in some cases even small animals.)
