Production of Biogas from Biomass

Read this article to learn about the production of biogas from biomass. The two methods are: (1) Microbial Production of Methane (Biogas) and (2) Biogas Production by Biogas Plant. Biogas: Biogas is a mixture of gases composed of methane (50-80%), carbon dioxide (15-40%), nitrogen (4%) and hydrogen sulfide (1%) with traces of hydrogen, oxygen and carbon monoxide. There are many [...]
