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 .
Design of a dry/solid-state anaerobic digestion (AD) biogas plant. High solids (dry) digesters are designed to process materials with a solids content between 25 and 40%. Unlike wet digesters that process pumpable slurries, high solids (dry – stackable substrate) digesters are designed to process solid substrates without the addition of water.
Sharad P Kale is a scientist known for developing a biogas plant based on biodegradable waste resource (Nisargruna). [1] He is the head of Technology Transfer and Collaboration at Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC). On 26 January 2013, the Government of India honoured him with the Padma Shri Award in the Discipline of Science and Engineering. [2]
Agricultural wastes: Fruits, molasses, stems, plant straw, and bagasse (residue after crushing sugarcane or sorghum stalks). Industrial wastes: Food/beverage processing waste, dairy wastes, starch/sugar industries wastes, slaughterhouse wastes, and brewery wastes. [1] These are just some of the different sources that anaerobic digestate can ...
The toilet may not be a darling of the design world, but innovative new solutions to our waste could be key to a more sustainable future. ... Biogas from recycled waste is converted into heating ...
First, the wastewater enters the anaerobic bioreactor unit, where the organic load goes through the anaerobic process to be transformed into biogas. Subsequently, the remaining liquid, which still has small amounts of solids, goes into the membrane unit, to separate the remaining, smaller solid particles from the anaerobically treated wastewater.
Physics students designed solar thermal boxes to boost renewable biogas production on an organic farm owned by the college. ... of theatre design and a sustainability fellow, listened as the ...
The city of Oslo, Norway installed a system for converting domestic food waste to fuel in 2012. A thermal hydrolysis system produces biogas from the food waste, which provides fuel for the city bus system and is also used for agricultural fertilizer.
