A new kinetic model for biogas production from co-digestion by batch mode

Biogas Production from Co-digestion of Substrates: A Review

Sustainable development is the projected demand of all nations at present. Only 20 percent of world’s primary energy requirement is met by renewable sources like solar and wind energy, hydropower, biomass, municipal and agri-wastes. Especially energy recovery from municipal and agri – wastes have gained importance due to two – fold reason: i. waste volume reduction, ii. energy recovery. The pre...

The Kinetic of Biogas Production Rate from Cattle Manure in Batch Mode

In this study, the kinetic of biogas production was studied by performing a series laboratory experiment using rumen fluid of animal ruminant as inoculums. Cattle manure as substrate was inoculated by rumen fluid to the anaerobic biodigester. Laboratory experiments using 400 ml biodigester were performed in batch operation mode. Given 100 grams of fresh cattle manure was fed to each biodigester...

Biogas production from food-processing industrial wastes by anaerobic digestion Biogas production from food-processing industrial wastes by anaerobic digestion

2. Production of Biogas by Anaerobic Digestion

Anaerobic digestion is a natural process in which bacteria convert organic materials into biogas. It occurs in marshes and wetlands, and in the digestive tract of ruminants. The bacteria are also active in landfills where they are the principal process degrading landfilled food wastes and other biomass. Biogas can be collected and used as a potential energy resource. The process occurs in an an...

Review on Biogas Production from Co- Digestion of Cow Dung and Foodwaste with Water Hyacinth

With Increasing Energy Demand in the World and to keep Environment Friendly, biogas technology has attained a notable position for the future scope. This paper tells about a comprehension review on anaerobic digestion of cow dung and food waste with Water hyacinths to enhance biogas productions. Water hyacinths are treated as waste in rivers, ponds, but they have high potential in biogas produc...

Biogas Production from Fish Wastes in Co-digestion with Sewage Sludge

Fish wastes have great potential as a source of high valued organic carbon for methane production but also have limitation (high content of ammonia nitrogen). Anaerobic treatment of fish wastes is possible with co-digestion. The main issue for co-digestion process lies in balancing several parameters in the co-substrate mixture: macroand micronutrients, C:N ratio, pH, toxic compounds, biodegrad...
