Biogas is a gaseous renewable energy source [1] produced from raw materials such as agricultural waste, manure, municipal waste, plant material, sewage, green waste, wastewater, and food waste. Biogas is produced by anaerobic digestion with anaerobic organisms or methanogens inside an anaerobic digester, biodigester or a bioreactor.
Biogas is a mixture composed primarily of methane and carbon dioxide produced by the process of anaerobic digestion of organic material by micro-organisms. Other trace components of this mixture includes water vapor, hydrogen sulfide , siloxanes, hydrocarbons, ammonia, oxygen, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen.
Anaerobic digestion produces two main products: digestate and biogas. Digestate is produced both by acidogenesis and methanogenesis and each has different characteristics. These characteristics stem from the original feedstock source as well as the processes themselves.
HILBERT — A new biogas plant came online in August in the town of Hilbert. Saturn Renewables LLC, a company created as a partnership between Archaea Energy and GFL Environmental opened its first ...
Biogas production In the biogas upgrading process, CO 2 is separated from the methane to produce a higher quality gas. Industry Electrical power plants Combustion of biomass or biofuel in steam or gas powered generators releases CO 2 as a by-product. Energy Heat power plants Combustion of biofuel for heat generation releases CO 2 as a by ...
Biomass (in the context of energy generation) is matter from recently living (but now dead) organisms which is used for bioenergy production. There are variations in how such biomass for energy is defined, e.g. only from plants, [8] or from plants and algae, [9] or from plants and animals. [10]
Biogas grid-injection is the injection of biogas into the natural gas grid. [99] The raw biogas has to be previously upgraded to biomethane. This upgrading implies the removal of contaminants such as hydrogen sulphide or siloxanes, as well as the carbon dioxide.
From March 2009 to December 2012, if you bought shares in companies when Frank D. Yeary joined the board, and sold them when he left, you would have a 35.3 percent return on your investment, compared to a 79.5 percent return from the S&P 500.
