Biogas
2
 Biogas typically refers to a mixture of gases
produced by the natural anaerobic
digestion of organic matter in the presence
of moisture.
 Renewable energy source.
Indian scenario
• India has installed 4.75 million small scale
biogas plants.
• India have additionally commissioned 158
projects under its biogas based grid power
generation programme, with a total installed
capacity of 2 MW.
• To support above programme the government
providing 50% subsidy for installation of biogas
plant.

TYPICAL GAS PRODUCTION FROM
DIFFERENT FEEDSTOCK
7
Anaerobic digestion
Treatment of any slurry/sludge containing
organic matter utilizing micro-organisms
under anaerobic condition .
Stages of digestion
The enzymatic hydrolysis
Acid formation
Methane formation

Estimation for sizing
 1kg of dry cattle dung produces approximately
1m3 of bio gas.
 1 kg of fresh cattle dung contains 8% dry bio
degradable mass
 1kg of fresh cattle dung has a volume of about
0.9 L
10
Factors
 Dynamic equilibrium between acid formers
and methane fermenters
 Temperature : 8-55oC
 pH : 6.8-7.8
 C:N Ratio : 25:1-30:1
 Water content 90% and solid organic
matter 8-9%
11
Types of biogas plants
12
 Floating dome type
KVIC type
 Fixed dome type
Deenbandhu biogas plant, janata type.
1. Floating dome type
 Mixing tank -mixture of dung and
water(4:5)
 Inlet
 Digester -fermentation
 Floating drum -collection of gas
 Outlet -fermented material flow
out

15
Gas holder :
Drum –Cylindrical and concave in shape
Mild steel sheet
Top - Supported radically
Angular iron
Gas pressure : 7-9cm of water column
Cost : Rs. 14,000 for 2m3
16
Fixed dome type
 Mixing tank
 Inlet
 Digester
 Outlet
17
18
Gasholder :Hemispirically fixed dome
Reinforced concrete
Cost : Rs. 8,000 for 2m3

Advantages of biogas as a fuel
22
 High calorific value
 Clean fuel
 No residue produced
 No smoke produced
 Non polluting
 Economical
 Burns readily
Uses and application of biogas
23
 Domestic fuel
 For street lighting
 Generation of electricity
 If compressed, it can replace compressed
natural gas for use in vehicles

A biogas bus, Sweden The bio gas train Amanda,
Sweden
One cubic metre of bio gas can do the
following operations:
It can illuminate a mantle lamp (60 W) for a
period of 7 hours .
It can run 2 hp engine for one hour .
It can be used for cooking three meals for a
family of five .
It can run 100L capacity refrigerator for
9hours .
It can generate electricity of 1.25 KWH.
Family biogas plant - 2-3 m3.
25
Advantages :
26
Low initial investment
Suitable for rural areas .
Reduce the dependence of non renewable
resources.
The by products , nitrogen rich manure
can be used.
It improves sanitary condition and checks
environmental pollution .
Limitations :
27
 Initial cost of installation of the plant is
high.
Number of cattle owned by an average family
of farmers is inadequate to feed a biogas
plant.
Conclusion
28
Biogas is a clean renewable source of energy.
The research organizations should focus on
newer efficient low cost designs.
 The government can play important role by
introducing different education schemes and
the availability of technology and providing
more subsidies.
