 <marquee> Hello Friend ☺️☺️☺️ </marquee>


what \: is \: biogas?


The mixture of methane and carbon dioxide produced by the decomposition of plant and animal waste, that is used as fuel are called biogas.


how \: is \: it \: obtained \: from \: biomass?


Throughout this entire process, large organic polymers that make up Biomass are broken down into smaller molecules by chemicals and microorganisms. Upon completion of the anaerobic digestion process, the Biomass is converted into Biogas, namely carbon dioxide and methane, as well as digestate and wastewater.


why \: biogas \: is \: considered \: as \: an
ideal \: fuel?


Biogas is considered as an ideal fuel because of the following reasons :


• Biogas does not cause air pollution as the combustion process is smoke free.


• Biogas produces a large amount of heat per unit mass and thus has high calorific value.

Explanation:

Burning biomass releases carbon dioxide. However, plants also take carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and use it to grow their leaves, flowers, branches, and stems. That same carbon dioxide is returned to the air when the plants are burned. Many different kinds of biomass, such as wood chips, corn, and some types of garbage, are used to produce electricity. Some types of biomass can be converted into liquid fuels called biofuels that can power cars, trucks, and tractors. Leftover food products like vegetable oils and animal fats can create biodiesel, while corn, sugarcane, and other plants can be fermented to produce ethanol.
