A BIOGAS PRODUCTION POTENTIAL FROM DOMESTIC WASTE
Abstract
purposes. Biogas production requires anaerobic digestion. Project was to create an Organic Processing Facility
to create biogas which will be more cost effective, eco-friendly, cut down on landfill waste, generate a highquality
renewable fuel, and reduce carbon dioxide & methane emissions. Overall by creating biogas reactors on
campus in the backyard of our hostels will be beneficial. Kitchen (food waste) was collected from different
hostels of Jabalpur Engineering College Jabalpur, JEC’s Mess as feedstock for our reactor which works as
anaerobic digester system to produce biogas energy. The anaerobic digestion of kitchen waste produces
biogas, a valuable energy resource anaerobic digestion is a microbial process for production of biogas, which
consist of primarily methane (CH4) & carbon dioxide (CO2). Biogas can be used as energy source and
also for numerous purposes. But, any possible application requires knowledge & information about the
composition and quantity of constituents in the biogas produced. The continuously-fed digester requires
addition of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to maintain the alkalinity and pH to 7.
