Answer 2

As we are becoming more modern and industrial day by day, the annual energy consumption is also increasing accordingly.

Due to the rising energy demand we are now looking forward for renewable energy sources.

Biogas is one of the most important renewable energy sources.

Bio gas mainly contains;

1) 50% to 70% of Methane

2) 30% to 50% of Carbon Dioxide

3) 0% to 10% of Nitrogen

4)0% to 1% of Hydrogen

Among these four substances methane is the main fuel of biogas.

We get biogas by decomposition of biodegradable waste materials in an artificially generated closed chamber.
