BIOGAS FAQ

What is Biogas? Biogas is produced from a micro biological fermentation process of organic matter under exclusion of oxygen(Anaerobic digestion). The main components of biogas are Methane and Carbon dioxide. Biogas can be used for producing thermal energy or can be utilized for cogeneration of electricity and heat. The energy density of biogas is depending on its methane content. Typically, one cubic meter [m3] of methane provides the energy content of approximately ten Kilowatt hours (9.97 kWh). Considering the biogas has a methane content of approximately 60%, one cubic meter of biogas p...

Biogas – Technology

TYPES OF ANAEROBIC DIGESTION SYSTEMS There are two general AD system configurations suitable for agri-food systems : completely mixed and plug flow. Completely mixed Completely mixed systems, as the name implies, consist of a large tank where fresh material is mixed with partially-digested material. These systems are suitable for manure or other agri-based organic material as substarte with lower dry matter content (4–12 %). Material with higher dry matter content will work in completely mixed systems by using recirculation of liquid effluent. The majority of state-of-the-art biogas ...
