- Description
- Anaerobic fermentation is a highly promising technology for converting biomass waste into methane, which may directly be used as an energy source. The objective of this research was to investigate production rate of biogas from camel dung, chicken dropping and vegetable waste. Attempts have been made in this study to optimize various parameters in order to determine the most favorable conditions for maximum biogas production from three different types of wastes such as camel dung (CAD), chicken droppings (CHD) and vegetable waste (VW). The amount of biogas produced from the wastes is compared as: VW >CHD>CAD. The results showed that biogas produced from VW is 720 ml in 32 days as compared to CHD and CAD which are 600 ml in 36 days and 80 ml in 40 days respectively. The effect of the pH and temperature on the amount of biogas produced was also studied. The experiments were conducted in temperatures ranging from 36 C to 44 C. 2023 Author(s).
