Techonologies - Biphasic Biogas System Based
on Agricultural Residues
Introduction
A national research organisation is offering technology
for biphasic biogas system based on agricultural residues.
A biphasic system consists of an open batch acid reactor
and an anaerobic filter reactor. The acid reactor is
fabricated with mild steel plate. A wire mesh is provided
at the bottom to support solid bed of agricultural wastes.
The bottom of the reactor is a hopper and an outlet
is provided to drain out acid rich liquid. Mathane reactor
is constructed of prefabricated reinforced concrete
pipe. To support the packing medias and to distribute
the flow of influent, a dispersion plate is provided
above the bottom of the reactor. Brickbats are used
as packing media to support the growth of methanogenic
bacteria.
Marketing of the manufactured
product: Marketing should be done by the licensee.
Biogas : This technology
is suitable for the utilisation of vegetable and fruit
waste availavle in agricultural products markets. The
prospective users are APMC (Agriculture Product Market
committee), large farmers and orchard owners. Fuel gas
(Biogas) is ideal for thermal and engine applications.
The techology is ready for field testing.
