Proposed Development
Development Description:
to develop biogas and biodiesel production facilities at the established National By-products rendering facilities. The development will consist of biogas and biodiesel production facilities which will use rendering and anaerobic digestion (AD) technologies to process up to 250,000 tones per annum of Category 1 and Category 3 animal by-product (as defined under the European Communities Regulations 1774/2002) meat and bone meal (MBM) and other organic biomass materials to generate biogas and biodiesel. The biogas facility utilising a combined heat and power plant, will generate up to 15 megawatts (MW) of electrical power. This biodiesel facility will use an esterification process to generate 50,000 tonnes of biodiesel per annum from tallow rendered on site, together with additional imported tallow or vegetable oils. The proposed development and works associated with the biogas facility are as follows: Category 3 Process Building (4000 sq.m.) and Category 1 Process Building (4000 sq m) accommodating materials intake, rendering storage, thermal pressure hydrolysis plant and Utility Building (2875 sq m) with associated gas cleaning and compression plant, combined heat and power plant and associated 30 m stack Above Ground Level (AGL) thermal oxidizer and assoicated 30 m stack AGL, ammonia stripper and conditioning plant and associated 30 m stack AGL, and sludge treatment plant; 2 no. biofilters, 2 no. tallow storage tanks of 6 m AGL; sludge storage & etc
the demolition of seven existing pig rearing buildings, and for the erection of a new pig rearing building to upgrade and replace existing buildings, along with all associated site works. All works take place within the curtilage of an existing pig rearing facility
a Grain Store Building incorporating an In-Take Building, Dryer & Dust House, overhead-enclosed conveyor system connecting the Dryer to the new stores and all associated site development works
