The tasks of this research; review of biogas and energy production technologies, system simulations
and decision support system (DSS) modeling, design and development of two
lab-scale (one for animal waste and one for agricultural waste) and one pilot
scale (250 kWe capacity) integrated biogas plant, integration of the pilot
plant with energy conversion systems, experimental studies, techno-economical
analysis of the biogas production, and life- cycle analysis were determined. The pilot biogas plant consist 2 reactors that have
net volume each and they are connected to each other. The volume of the final
manure storage is 1000m3. The retention time at the plant is 47 days; ratio of
organic dry matter is 9 % and the fermentation temperature
is 35-40oC under mesophilic conditions.
