Biogas production
Biogas production from biomass is an anaerobic process.
The anaerobic digestion is usually carried out by using are referred to as anaerobic digesters.
A digester may be made up of concrete bricks and cement or steel, usually built underground.
The digester has an inlet attached to a mixing tank feeding cow dung.
The methanogenic bacteria from another digester are also added with cow dung.
The digester is attached to a movable gas holding or storage tank with a gas outlet.
The used slurry comes out from the digester through an outlet. This can be used as a manure.
Process of Biogas production
By products of Sugar Industries
Molasses
Molasses is a viscous by product of refining sugarcane or sugar beets into sugar.
It contain solids, sucrose and reducing sugars.
Total sugar content is 45-55%. Hence it is a valuable raw material for the producton of many value added products.
India has the largest chemical industry in the world using sugarcane molasses to produce acetaldehyde, acetic acid, polyvinyl chloride, synthetic rubber etc.
Citric acid is produced easily from molasses by submerged fermentation.
Bagasse is the fibrous matter that remains after sugarcane stalks are crushed to extract their juice.
It is a dry pulpy residue left after the extraction of juice from sugarcane.
Bagasse is used as a biofuel and in manufacture of pulp and building materials.
4. Solid waste is defined as
"non liquid, non soluble materials
ranging from municipal garbage to industrial
wastes that contain complex and sometimes
hazardous substances.
It also include:-
Garbage
Sewage treatment residue
Dead animals
Manure and other discarded material

7. Biogas is a mixture of gases composed of
methane (50-80%), carbon dioxide (15-40%),
nitrogen (4%) and hydrogen sulfide (1%)
with trace of hydrogen, oxygen and carbon
monoxide.
USES :
It can be used for cooking purpose.
Gobar gas can generate electricity.
Methane gas is used as a fuel for domestic
and industrial purposes.
8. SUBSTRATES :-
The usual substrates for biogas
production are the waste products of
animal husbandry, industries, agriculture
and municipalities.
In India and other developing countries
cattle dung is most commonly used.

The used slurry comes out from the digester through an
outlet. This can be used as a manure.
11. By using simple technology,
agricultural, industrial and municipal
wastes can be converted into a
biofuel.
The left over residue after biogas
formation can be used as fertilizers.
