Making
biogas from
your wastes
Biogas is a renewable source
of energy that can be
produced from organic wastes
through a process called
anaerobic digestion.
2
Here's a step-by-step guide on
how to make biogas from
wastes:
Step 1: Gather organic
wastes
Collect a variety of organic
wastes, such as kitchen
scraps, food leftovers, yard
waste, animal manure,
agricultural residues, and
sewage sludge. These wastes
3
will serve as the feedstock for
the biogas production
process.

Step 2: Prepare the biogas
digester
A biogas digester is a sealed
container where the organic
wastes will undergo anaerobic
digestion to produce biogas.
You can purchase a biogas
digester or build one yourself
using materials like concrete,
bricks, or plastic. The digester
should have an inlet for
adding the organic wastes and
5
an outlet for collecting the
biogas and the digested
residue, also known as
digestive.

Step 3: Load the organic
wastes into the digester
Chop or shred the organic
wastes into small pieces to
increase their surface area
and promote faster digestion.
Load the wastes into the
digester through the inlet,
making sure not to overfill it.
Leave some headspace for the
biogas to accumulate.
7
Step 4: Seal the digester
Once the digester is loaded
with the organic wastes, seal
it tightly to create an
anaerobic environment inside.
This can be achieved by
placing airtight lids or covers
on the digester and sealing
any gaps or leaks. Anaerobic
bacteria will then thrive in the
absence of oxygen and start
breaking down the organic
wastes.

Step 5: Allow for anaerobic
digestion
The anaerobic digestion
process can take several
weeks to months, depending
on the temperature, pH, and
types of organic wastes used.
9
During this time, the bacteria
will produce biogas as a by-
product, which will
accumulate in the digester.
It's important to monitor and
maintain the temperature and
pH inside the digester to
optimize the biogas
production.

Step 6: Collect the biogas
As the anaerobic digestion
progresses, biogas will be
produced and will rise to the
top of the digester. You can
collect the biogas using a gas
outlet pipe connected to the
digester's outlet. The biogas is
a mixture of methane, carbon
dioxide, and small amounts of
other gases, and can be used
as a renewable source of
11
energy for cooking, heating,
or electricity generation.

Step 7: Utilize the biogas
Connect the gas outlet pipe to
a biogas stove, a biogas
generator, or a storage system
to utilize the biogas. Biogas
can be used directly for
cooking or heating or it can be
converted into electricity
through a biogas generator.
The leftover digestive can be
used as a nutrient-rich
fertilizer for plants.
13
Step 8: Monitor and
maintain the digester
Regularly monitor the biogas
digester to ensure that the
temperature and pH are
within the optimal range for
biogas production.
Adjustments may need to be
made by adding water,
nutrients, or buffers to
maintain the right conditions
for the bacteria. Also,
periodically remove the
14
digested residue from the
digester and use it as fertilizer
or compost.
By following these steps, you
can effectively make biogas
from organic wastes and
utilize it as a renewable
source of energy while also
reducing waste and promoting
sustainability.
