Biogas production from manure contributes to climate protection by reducing emissions of CO2 via substitution of fossil fuels and by reducing CH4 emissions from the manure during storage (Moller et al.‚ 2007). It is expected that biogas production will be instrumental in reaching European goals in the field of renewable energy. Due to the simultaneous advantages

neutral’‚ which means that the CO 2 released when it is burned is balanced by the uptake of CO 2 from the atmosphere by plants growing to produce more grain. In light of its advantages‚ world production of ethanol has increased dramatically in recent years. As grain will continue to be used for biofuel production‚ it is appropriate that we should seek to maximize the yield of ethanol. One way to do this is to study the effects of various factors on the rate of fermentation. Ethanol and CO 2 are produced
