Biogas – The source of future energy
The ability to turn waste products into something which can be utilized is also
rather convenient, especially in developing countries, where available resources
may be limited. Furthermore, by turning biomass into biogas, people can address
issues like sewage treatment, ensuring that raw sewage is not released into the
natural environment.
Producing process
Biogas is normally produced by using the excreta of animals as the source material.
In most of the countries where biogas is produced, the excreta of the cattle and other
farm animals are used. In India gobar or cow dung is used for the purpose of making
biogas. 20% of the excreta of animals are made up of dust particles that are
inorganic in nature. The percentage of the inorganic dust particles is brought down by
combining water with the excreta in a 1:1 ratio. The rate of feeding of any biogas
