decompose waste materials to produce biogas. 2 Biogas is usually about 70% methane and somewhere between 20 and 30 % carbon dioxide 3 the way we use it to generate energy is to burn it to heat up water which will then turn a turbine to produce electricity. It is also heard of to heat the water to steam which then can be used straight into central heating systems. 4 It can also be used as fuel for transportation such as specially designed cars with engines that run on biogas. 1 Biodiesel is an alternative

Also the quality of sewage change in the week. Biogas is separated from the sewage. This biogas is then filtered into the scrubber and use for running the diesel engine to produce electricity. This electricity is used for running the various equipment’s like pump‚ motor‚ blower‚ which are

Renewable Energy for a Better Future By Sulthan Muhammad Yusa / 8W5 Energy shortage is a major issue everywhere in the world‚ but in Indonesia‚ it is not only a major issue‚ but also an urgent problem that needs to be resolved soon‚ otherwise Indonesia will be in very big trouble in the near future. It is true that the government has the program “10‚000 MW projects” for building a new power plant‚ but there are too many obstacles for it to be successful in the short term. The diagram shows the

Climate Change – Who’s Responsible to tackle climate change? I chose this topic because currently the world’s undergoing a major threat in which even the lives of humans can be at a high risk. Surely‚ humans are one and only cause of the change in these conditions. The world’s increasing the usage of fuels and petroleum day by day increases the world’s average temperature. I agree that they have a major role in our lives and I also agree that we need them to do our daily chores but this increase

ESSAY ON ALTERNATIVE SOURCES OF ENERGY The law of conservation says that energy is neither created nor destroyed. When we use energy‚ it doesn’t disappear. We change it from one form of energy into another. A car engine burns gasoline‚ converting the chemical energy in gasoline into mechanical energy. Solar cells change radiant energy into electrical energy. Energy changes form‚ but the total amount of energy in the universe stays the same. Scientists at the Department of Energy think they have

The biogas production ranges from 50-150m3/tonne of wastes‚ depending upon the composition of waste. The biogas can be utilized either for cooking/ heating applications‚ or through dual fuel or gas engines or gas / steam turbines for generating motive power or electricity.

According to Taylor “officials in the California community of Victor Valley on Friday unveiled the United States first carbon neutral wastewater treatment plant. Biogas produced from food waste and sewage powers the plant while keeping tons of garbage out of landfills. Officials at the Victor Valley Wastewater Reclamation Authority expect the system to operate independent of the power grid by 2015‚ diverting more
