Anaerobic digestion is a biological degradation process used to convert organic wastes from Animals and plants into biogas. Produce biogas from these wastes gives a new and clean energy and good organic fertilizer as a method to protect environment from pollution by wastes.In this paper, a continuous flow family scale biogas digester was designed and constructed in Abiss, Alexandria governorate at the year of 2011. The study was conducted to develop biogas digester for farmer family scale. It was designed with installed capacity of cattle dung from 5 to 6 heads or about 100.0 kg/dung/day. The digester was operated in mesophilic conditions of 22 to 27 °C temperature range at three levels of average total solid content (TS) 6 %, 10 % and 17 % under one month hydraulic retention time (HRT) for each treatment. The experiments were conducted to investigate the production of biogas (BP) rate from Cattle wastes by using anaerobic digestion process. The results indicated that, the biogas production rate was about 3 m 3 /day at average
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
