Implications |
7.2.2 |
Pasteurisation is the default position for PAS110 – even for non ABP feedstocks - except when inputs arise from the producer’s holding and the digestate is also used on that holding. |
A plant taking non ABP feedstocks may still require pasteurisation equipment capabe of meeting ABP standards |
7.1.5 |
Digestate stored at the plant premises needs to be in covered storage, but once it has left the premises it does not need to be in a covered store. If the digestate is to be used on producers own premises/land no coverage is required at all |
Storage of digestate on the premises will require coverage |
11.2 |
Test Parameters – Residual Biogas Potential Test (RBP) |
The test measures whether full digestion has taken place – this may influence the retention times used for the plant and therefore the tonnage of feedstocks per year that can be treated |
