Explain the working of Biogas plant with the
help of diagram.
Answers
Answer:
Principle of Biogas: Biogas is produced by decomposition of organic matter. Biogas is mainly composed of methane. It burns with negligible smoke and leaves no residue. It can be used as kitchen fuel. It can also be used for generating electricity.
Working of Biogas plant:
A mixture of farm waste is fed into the biogas plant. This waste is mixed to make a slurry.
Slurry is then fed into the digester. Digester is an air-tight chamber and oxygen is not present in it.
Anaerobic bacteria in digester carry out decomposition of slurry. This results in production of biogas.
Biogas is sent out through an outlet so that it can be suitably used.
Decomposed matter is taken out and it can
be used as manure.
Answer:
Biogas plants are decentralized energy system that can lead to self-sufficiency in heat and power requirements, and at the same time reduces environmental pollution. A biogas plant stabilizes organic waste through natural biological process in the absence of air and transforms waste into biogas and biofertilizer.
