A biogas plant is a facility that converts organic waste into biogas, a renewable fuel source. This process, called anaerobic digestion, occurs in a closed digester where bacteria break down organic matter in the absence of oxygen, producing a blend of methane and carbon dioxide. The biogas can be used for cooking, heating, electricity generation, and even as a vehicle fuel.
BENEFITS OF BIOGAS PLANTS
-Renewable Energy Source: -Biogas provides a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional fuels.
WASTE MANAGEMENT
It helps in efficient waste disposal and reduces landfill waste.
COST-EFFECTIVE ENERGY Biogas production can be more cost-effective than traditional energy sources.
FERTILIZER PRODUCTION
Digestate from the process can be used as a natural fertilizer, enhancing soil.
Biogas can be used for cooking and heating in homes and businesses,
Biogas can be upgraded to biomethane, can also be used in combined heat and power (CHP) plants to produce both heat and electricity.
