Prototype Biogas Plant for Residential Use

Abstract

Currently the evolution of industry and the growing population use a lot of energy. So, we have been using fossil fuels as the primary source of the energy but it is declining very fast and its badly affect environment. So, it is very important to build a new sustainable energy source from renewable energy. This is why it is important, that we need to get an environmentally friendly energy source .in addition, we can supply natural gas to remote villages at very low cost and low maintenance. We can ensure maximum use of cattle dung. Data has been collected from various places for the construction of this biogas plant which is mentioned in the form of reference. We have selected cow dung for this project as it is very readily available and available in large quantities. We have done this project in a short range so that we can easily understand its activities and we are able to produce gas from this. This project produces 2:32 liters gas daily with using 8 kg cow dung & 24 kg water in 1:3 ratios. To increase gas production in the future this project requires more advanced technology to maintain the temperature and humidity. At the same time, small appliances have to be invented instead of big digester and the government must come forward for the development of biogas. then we will get a beautiful environment and a source of sustainable energy
