Researchers say they are using artificial intelligence to develop better microorganism-led processes that efficiently digest materials such as food waste, wastewater and animal manure to help boost the UK’s burgeoning biogas industry. Microbes convert materials into soluble substances, which are then transformed into gases like methane.
