Anaerobic digestion
KidzSearch Safe Wikipedia for Kids.
Anaerobic digestion is the way microorganisms break down organic matter without oxygen.[1][2] This process happens naturally, but it is called anaerobic digestion when it is supported and contained.
An anaerobic digester is an industrial system that supports this process. Biodegradation to treat waste is one of the main purposes. Generating biogas to provide fuel is another. It also produces soil improving material.[3]
