Biogas & Organic Fertilizer
Production
M.M.Palitha Mahinda MunasingheFarm Mechanical Instructor
An odorless and colorless gas that burns with clear blue flame It is generated by the activity of anaerobic bacteria The heating value of biogas is about 60% of natural gas and about 25% of propane

Build a Artificial DigesterIt is a system that promotes
decomposition of organic matter It produces Methane gas through the
process of anaerobic digestion

How Can It Produce
Retention time of 50 to 60 days seems desirable is needed & depending on temperature (100C-300C)

Input biodegradable materials
Forms of biomass may be used along with water
Animal dung, Poultry wastes & Human excreta Farm wastes (Husk, grass, weeds, Straws etc.) Industrial wastes (Saw dust, wastes from food
processing industries) Domestic wastes (Vegetable peels, waste food
materials from kitchen)
