In this article we will discuss about the procedure for constructing movable type and fixed dome type biogas plants. Procedure for Constructing Movable Drum Type Plant: Biogas plant should be constructed in consonance with the technical specifications as any imperfection will result in low gas yield, reduce plant life, and may even require far more work to remedy defects. The [...]
In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Biochemistry of Anaerobic Fermentation 2. Microbiology of Anaerobic Fermentation 3. Kinetics of Anaerobic Fermentation 4. Hydrogen Production by Hydrogen Producing Bacteria of Digester Sludge. Biochemistry of Anaerobic Fermentation: Anaerobic fermentation basically involves three phases, namely, hydrolysis, an acid phase and the methane phase. Hydrolysis phase covers break-down of large molecules into smaller [...]
Hydrogen sulphide which is usually present in trace quantities in biogas is poisonous and harmful for health, and also imparts corrosive property to it. Process of removing hydrogen sulfide from gas is called desulfurisation. Like carbon dioxide, it can also be removed by water and caustic scrubbing. A brief description of some of the commonly used desulfurisation methods are as [...]
