Experimental Investigation on Performance Improvement of Biogas Plant
نویسندگان
چکیده
Biogas is a sustainable fuel that stands out from other biofuels because of the major environmental and socio-economic benefits that can be achieved. This opens up enormous potential for sustainable economic growth and will also improve our energy security. An attempt has been made to find the different ways to improve the overall performance of biogas plant. The present work comprise of improving the biogas yield in terms of quality and quantity. Since it is a well known fact that temperature improves the performance of biogas plant, experimentation is carried out to modify the existing mild steel dome based biogas plant by transparent type fibre dome to capture the green house effect. Modifications are carried out in one of the plant and the second plant is kept as a reference. So far these two biogas plants were studied for composition, yield, temperature effect; pH value of the end digestate.

Biogas production from co-digestion of local brewery waste (BW) and cow dung (CD) was study for value added to this solid waste. The objective of this research was to fine the optimum condition for maximum biogas production and also examined the effectiveness of the biogas residue (liquor from anaerobic digestion process) as a nitrogen source for the production of okro. The experiments were per...
