Requirements
Applicants must have proven hands-on experience building fixed-dome brick biodigesters and should be able to provide evidence of completed and working digesters they have personally constructed.
Candidates should have strong masonry, bricklaying, and concrete skills, particularly in constructing curved domes and circular walls.
Practical knowledge of making biodigesters gas-tight through appropriate sealing, plastering, curing, and testing methods is essential.
The successful candidate should understand key biogas principles, including feedstock selection, retention time, gas production, C:N balance, and gas pressure.
Experience installing and troubleshooting gas piping, valves, water traps, pressure gauges, gas storage bags, and generator connections is required.

The role also involves installing gas piping and associated equipment, carrying out gas-tightness tests, and commissioning each digester before it is placed into service.
The successful candidate will maintain existing digesters by handling dome sealing, leak detection, inlet and outlet clearing, slurry management, and gas-line servicing.
They will also advise on feedstock loading, mixing, and retention times while training and supervising farm labourers assisting with construction and daily operations.
