Manure as a strategic resource

Biomethane and the energy transition

Biomethane from manure is set to become one of the key players in Europe’s energy transition. While much of the attention often focuses on batteries and green hydrogen, interest is growing in practical and sustainable solutions like biogas produced from livestock slurry, known among experts as “brown gold.”

Across Europe, farms and agricultural enterprises are transforming into energy hubs thanks to the use of biogas plants powered by slurry and manure. This transformation not only helps reduce CO₂ emissions but also gives value to livestock waste as a renewable resource, supporting a circular economy model.

Italy also has enormous potential: millions of tons of bovine and swine slurry could be converted into clean energy, contributing to national energy independence and environmental sustainability.

In this context, Bonsegna stands alongside farmers ready to seize the opportunities offered by biomethane. Our slurry tankers are designed for the efficient management of livestock waste, facilitating its transport and distribution both in the field and in synergy with anaerobic digesters.

The digestate produced from biogas generation is a valuable fertilizer that improves soil fertility and reduces dependence on chemical fertilizers, delivering both economic and environmental benefits.

Investing in technologies for slurry management today means taking a leading role in a modern and sustainable agricultural economy.
