Biogas Plant

Biogas is the mixture of gas produced by methanogenic bacteria while acting upon bio degradable materials in an anaerobic condition. It is mainly composed of 50 to 70 percent methane, 30 to 40 percent carbon dioxide, and some other gases. It is about 20 percent lighter than air. It is an odourless gas that burns with clear blue flame similar to that of LPG gas. Biogas production process involves basically; liquidification and gasification. When manure is added to the plant, there is the formation of acid forming bacteria. These bacteria convert manure to liquid form. This phase is liquidification. liquidification process is followed by gasification where methane along with carbon dioxide is formed by methane forming bacteria. This technology can be used as source of energy for any application. This technology can be used from basic cooking, lighting in households and can also be used for electricity generation. Biogas users can operate and maintain the biogas plant after basic users training provided by the concerned biogas companies
