Bio-gas production

from
biomass
Requirements
• Biomass
• Tanks
• Bacteria enzymes (anaerobic bacteria) eg
methanogens and high fungi
• Pressure valves
• Pipes
Procedure

-The first step is to collect où main raw


material from dump point like (HYSACAM)
and others
.
-later on we load all the waste
products into the digester tank
then the enzymes will be added
in the first compartment of the
tank on the waste, from here the
biomass present will turn into
sludge and collected in the
second compartment.
.
- the biomass is then heated
over 70⁰c to kill all harmfull
organisms.
Then the water is containing the
anaerobic bacteria is pour to 40%
of the tank volume
The tank has pressure valves to
avoid explosion
The tank will be kept closed for
three weeks .during this period
of time ,the bacteria will
completely digest the biomass
producing biogasses such as
methane,ethane,h2,c02 to 45%
of the tank.
.
The gases are then separated for
their various uses hence having
ta highest quantity for heating
Propane fpr heating and ethane
used to produce plastics,
Butane used for cookingand
heating at homes, carbon dioxide
is released in to the atmosphere.
Remainscan later be reused as
fertilizer.
Advantages
• The raw materials are widely availableas a
renewable energy source.
• It is carbon neutral
• It reduces the overall dependence to fussil fuels
• Biomass production adds a revenew source of
manufacture
• Generates in come
Biogasscan be easily produces
