Process Parameters for Biogas Production from Industrial Liquid Waste 4

Process Parameters for Biogas Production from Industrial Liquid Waste

In this post I want to share with you process parameters for biogas production from industrial liquid waste. By understanding required these parameters, optimal environment conditions for biogas production can be maintained. The parameters include temperature, pH and buffering systems, gas solubility, nutrients, and toxicity.

How to Estimate Potential of Energy Generated from Biogas from POME (Palm Oil Mill Effluent)

In this post, I’ll explain how to estimate the energy potential of biogas generated from Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME). To convert POME into energy, it undergoes anaerobic digestion to produce methane-rich biogas. If you’re new to these concepts, feel free to check out my previous post on biogas and biorefineries.

Understanding Biogas Biorefineries: Definition, Process Flow, and Biogas Properties

Biogas biorefineries are an innovative concept in the field of process engineering. As a process engineer, this is my first experience working with biogas biorefineries, and I am eager to explore and understand this subject in depth. This section will help us get acquainted with the basics and significance of biogas biorefineries within the industry.

Definition of Biogas Biorefineries

Biogas biorefineries use sophisticated, combined processes to convert organic waste, energy crops, and agricultural leftovers into biogas, biomethane, and valuable bio-based products through anaerobic digestion.

Biorefineries of biogas may include the following type:

  • Biogas biorefineries focusing on the production of biogas and fertilizers using energy crops or waste substrates like food waste or food production waste
  • Sugar crop biorefineries based on sugar beet, sugar cane, etc.
  • Starch crop biorefineries based on cereals, maize, potato, etc.
  • Green biorefineries based on wet biomass like grass, clover, etc.
  • Biorefineries that process all kinds of organic waste, including municipal, food industry, restaurant, and grocery store waste.

Typical Process of Biogas Biorefineries
