Small Portable Biogas Plants

Portable biogas plants are considered to be the safest option to convert biodegradable waste into biogas and manure. These plants are small units specifically designed for household and institutional purposes to generate energy from waste materials. As a result, it helps create a hygienic environment and clean and healthy surroundings for individuals and the public in general.

Why Consider a Portable Biogas Plant?

Methane is one of the greenhouse gases that is contributing to climate change. Similar to industries, homes and smaller commercial setups also generate 2 to 5 kg of solid waste per day and also generate methane gas, leading to climate change. Instead, if commercial setups or households can drop the daily waste into the biogas digester in the biogas plant, the biomethanization process takes place and converts the waste into methane and liquid manure. The captured methane can be used as cooking fuel and it will burn up to 2 hours on a single burner stove. The liquid manure is also helpful on farms or can be sold to fertilizer companies. When the methane doesn’t release into the environment and is used instead on your stove, you contribute towards a sustainable future.

How Does it Work?

How Does it Work?

Portable biogas plants work on the principle of anaerobic digestion. The production of a combustible gas through the process of anaerobic digestion using matter mixed with bacterial culture is called bio-methanation and the product resulting from this process is called biogas.

The unit of a portable biogas plant consists of a lower segment tank which is the digester and another tank near it. The waste feed is put into the inlet from where it is flushed to the primary digester tank. There, the organic waste is decomposed through various steps of anaerobic digestion, finally producing biogas. The digester is also connected to a sludge tank using a plastic pipe through the outlet tank. The recovered biogas can be used in various ways — either for cooking or lighting or as fuel.
