Technological Review of Biogas Generation from Bio-Degradable Wastes: Design, Performance and Scope

Abstract

The appropriate management of biodegradable wastes by Anaerobic Digestion can not only solve waste-treatment problem, but also can provide an alternate solution to increasing global energy demand. Biogas is becoming popular worldwide as it is renewable and green energy resource. Intent of this review paper is to report global scenario of biogas generation and its technical advancement so far. Different technologies of biogas plants are available. A comparative discussion amon different types of biogas plants are added. Suitable design for biogas plants are required to operate it safely and efficiently. Different design and performance aspects are also added in this paper to motivate further research in this field.
