READ MOREBiogas from biomass. Biogas, which may be called renewable natural gas (RNG) or biomethane, is an energy-rich gas produced by anaerobic decomposition or thermochemical conversion of biomass. Biogas is composed mostly of methane (CH 4 ), the main compound in fossil natural gas, and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ). The methane content of
READ MOREBiogas is a gaseous renewable energy source produced from raw materials such as agricultural waste, manure, municipal waste, plant material, sewage, green waste, wastewater, and food waste.Biogas is produced by anaerobic digestion with anaerobic organisms or methanogens inside an anaerobic digester, biodigester or a bioreactor. The
READ MOREBiogas has gained popularity in recent years as a "greener" fuel. This is the methane created when anaerobic digestion breaks down organic matter, like in landfills or "digesters" that convert animal manure or food waste, which can then be used to replace conventional natural gas. But is it truly a renewable energy solution?
