Abstract |
In our institution we have one food court having there are three messes and international school have two messes. These all mess are produce large amount of kitchen waste which can be used for biogas production. Anaerobic digestion is used for biogas production. Our Project is to create an Organic Processing Facility to produce biogas which will be more cost effective, eco-friendly. It will generate renewable fuel. Kitchen waste is collect from different messes of Sanjay Ghodawat Institute. The anaerobic digestion of kitchen waste produces biogas, which consist of primary methane (CH4) & Carbon dioxide (CO2). Biogas can be used as energy source & also for numerous purposes. But, any possible applications require knowledge & information about the composition & quality of constituents in the biogas produced. For this we have made experiment on food waste potential for production of biogas & study its economical feasibility. With our calculation of 84kg, 0.84 cubic meter production of biogas is possible. With this equation electrical power of KW is possible for generation. |
