SMEP is funding Rio Fish LTD and the Kenya Private Sector Alliance (KEPSA) to conduct a feasibility study to pilot the i) production of biogas (energy) by utilising fish waste and ii) the treatment of the wastewater from the production process.
Waste to Energy: The case for anaerobic digestion in Kenya and Uganda Organic waste is released through water and land pathways into waterbodies and landfills. Release of organic waste into these pathways results in production of GHGs and negatively impacts aquatic and human health. This report investigate the potential of anaerobic digestion as a suitable technology
