Question

Differance between advantage or disadvantage of bio gas

Answer 1

Advantages of Biogas 

1. It's a Clean & Renewable Energy Source

Biogas is a renewable and clean source of energy, like solar and wind power, which can help us reduce our reliance on fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and natural gas. Because these fossil fuels contribute to climate change, biogas actually reduces greenhouse gas emissions by preventing additional fossil fuel burning—and it is therefore a great way to combat global climate change. Biodigestors do this by lowering methane emissions, capturing the harmful gas and utilizing it as fuel instead of letting it dissipate into the atmosphere without use. Furthermore, the process of biodigestion is natural, not requiring any outside energy for the generation process, and the organic materials used in the production are renewable. Manure, food scraps, and crop residue are materials that will always be available, which makes biogas a highly sustainable option.

2. It Reduces Soil & Water Pollution 

When you toss your waste into the trash bin, instead of extracting its value with HomeBiogas, it will most likely end up in one of many overflowing landfills. Not only are these wastelands ugly and foul-smelling, but they allow toxic liquids to drain into and pollute underground water sources and soil. Therefore, another advantage of diverting waste through biogas production is that it can improve water and soil quality. Moreover, anaerobic digestion deactivates pathogens and parasites; thus, it’s also quite effective in reducing the incidence of waterborne diseases. 

Disadvantages of Biogas 

1. Few Advancements

An unfortunate disadvantage of biogas today is that the technology is not completely efficient. There are no new technologies yet which would simplify the process and make it more abundant and affordable. This means large-scale production to supply for a large population is still not possible. Although the biogas plants available today are able to meet some energy needs, many governments are not willing to invest in the sector. So far, HomeBiogas is the most efficient, affordable, and easy-to-use small-scale biodigestor on the market. 

2. Less Suitable For Dense Metropolitan Areas

Because of the above restrictions, a system suitable for dense metropolitan living is not yet available. In the future, we hope to see the emergence of an appliance which can be utilized from homes like apartments that have minimal indoor and outdoor space.
