Approach to feedstock's is opportunistic with very few supply contracts.
- Pig & Cow Slurry
- Whey Permeate and other milk waste
- Bakery Waste
- Surplus Grass & Maize Silage

W HAT DO WE FEED IT ON?
SLIDE 20
- More gas production
- More solar
- Transport – milk tankers?
- Can only be as ‘Green’ as current technology allows
W HAT IS N EXT FOR W YKE?
SLIDE 21
- More gas from smaller digesters;
- Separation of solid and liquid retention times
- Improvements of pre-hydrolysis techniques
- Increase use of crop residues like straw, chaff etc.
- Increase yields from purpose grown crops
- Nutrient recovery/separation from digestate
