“…HRT was found to be 30 days in monsoon and 25 days in summer. This is in agreement with the result of Tomar (1995) and Khoiyangbam et al (2004). Rajendran et al (2012) reported that HRT for portable bio-digesters showed a wide range varied from 20-100 days.…”

“…The temperature of the substrates was recorded using mercury bulb thermometer (Khoiyangbam et al, 2004).The pH of the substrates was recorded using Eutech digital PCS testr-35 (Radhakrishnan, 2013).The temperature and pH of the digesta were recorded daily in the morning before loading, using mercury bulb thermometer (Khoiyangbam et al, 2004) and Eutech digital PCStestr 35 (Radhakrishnan, 2013) respectively. The biogas production was recorded in the morning from the very next day before loading.…”

“…Methane maturation offers a powerful method for contamination diminishment, better than that accomplished by means of traditional oxygen consuming procedures. Although rehearsed for a considerable length of time, enthusiasm for anaerobic maturation has just, as of late, centred on its utilization in the financial recuperation of fuel gas from mechanical and rural surpluses [59].…”

The decrease and unreasonable utilization of petroleum derivatives and the effect of greenhouse gases on nature are driving exploration into sustainable power source development from natural assets and waste. The worldwide vitality request is high, and a large portion of this energy is developed from fossil fuels. Recent investigations report that Anaerobic Digestion (AD) is a proficient option innovation that joins bio-fuel yield with reasonable waste administration; and, different mechanical patterns exist in the biogas business which upgrades the generation and nature of biogas. Profound interests in AD are relied upon to meet with the expanding accomplishments because of the minimal effort of accessible nourish stocks and the extensive variety of employments for biogas (i.e., for warming, power and fuel). Biogas formation is urged in numerous countries to build up the commercial market and offers a conservative option for bio-energy generation. In India, many States are empowering their kin and supporting them financially to build bio plants. The goal of this paper is to give a review of biogas plants, sorts of waste used to deliver biogas, approaches to produce biogas and issues in the biogas generation.

“…Assuming the rate of displacement of digestate to the OC is proportional to the rate of biogas production inside the DC, allowing for a small amount of biogas compression caused by the hydraulic head between the DC and OC digestate levels (typically 0.3-0.8 m), and that the digester is operating at a specific biogas production rate of 25 [45]. The implication is that significant GHG emissions are generated by dome digesters, and that they are operating at only 88 per cent of their achievable efficiency.…”

This study looks at how potential for resilient low-carbon solutions can be understood and enhanced in the diverse environmental, economic and socio-political contexts in which actual scenarios of energy needs and diverse development pathways take shape. It discusses socio-technical transition approaches to assist implementation of a biogas digester system. This will replace fuelwood use in the high forests of Central Nepal, where yak cheese production provides livelihood income but is under threat from the Langtang National Park, which is concerned to protect biodiversity. Alternatives for digester design are discussed, and the consultative issues for deliberative processes among stakeholders' varied agendas raised.
