Abstract |
|
Biogas is produced by the anaerobic digestion of organic wastes. Anaerobic digestion has lot more advantages than any other organic waste treatment. Biogas production does not require any advanced technology. Biogas is distinct from other renewable sources of energy in that it can provide energy from wastes and leaves behind highly enriched degraded wastes which can be used as bio-fertilizer. In this paper, the production of biogas from cow dung and food wastes are compared under same operating condition of room temperature between 28 ° C to 32°C. A Nano demo Biogas digester of 0.02 cubic meter gas holding capacity is used for the comparison. The temperature, pressure and humidity of the digester are frequently monitored using sensors interfaced with Arduino board. |
