Biogas

by Arushi Madan | 11-05-2013 18:54 recommendations 0

Biogas typically refers to a gas produced by the breakdown of organic matter in the absence of oxygen. It is a renewable energy source, like solar and wind energy. Furthermore, biogas can be produced from regionally available raw materials and recycled waste and is environmentally friendly. Biogas is produced by the anaerobic digestion or fermentation of biodegradable materials such as manure, sewage, municipal waste, green waste, plant material, and crops. Biogas comprises primarily methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) and may have small amounts of hydrogen sulphide (H2S), moisture and siloxanes.

The gases methane, hydrogen, and carbon monoxide (CO) can be combusted or oxidized with oxygen. This energy release allows biogas to be used as a fuel. Biogas can be used as a fuel in any country for any heating purpose, such as cooking. It can also be used in anaerobic digesters where it is typically used in a gas engine to convert the energy in the gas into electricity and heat. Biogas can be compressed, much like natural gas, and used to power motor vehicles. In the UK, for example, biogas is estimated to have the potential to replace around 17% of vehicle fuel.

I want to spread awareness about biogas , its power as renewable source of energy and it being a great way to reuse /recycle waste. With this !==!==!--object--====ive in mind , I made a model on Biogas which I and my groupmates displayed at many public platforms/interschool competitions like at Manipal University , Dubai ,  Dubai Children Science Congress  and prior to that this model went in for JSS Science Exhibition ,Dubai.

    Yes made by me and my projectmate Priyanka. It was appreciated wherever we displayed it . In recent interschool competition at Manipal University dubai , we lost 3rd position by1 point , there was a tie between 3rd position holder and us. Out of 200 models /projects displayed we could have been 3rd best but we lost by 1 point so we were 4th best.

    Is the miniature made by you? Really well made!
    Thanks for sharing.
    We must be well aware of existence of bio gas and its advantages.
