Biogas production from domestic solid waste in Tokat province garbage storage area

Abstract

Biogas produced by anaerobic digestion of municipal solid waste is considered a renewable energy source and contributes to the reduction of environmental pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. In this context, this study was carried out to evaluate the continuously increasing amount of domestic solid waste in biogas production. An attempt was made to determine the waste mixture that provides optimum gas formation in 4 reactors where different municipal solid wastes were placed. In this context, the amounts of CH4 and CO2 were determined. Since temperature is also an effective factor in biogas formation, temperature changes were monitored. A repeated measures analysis of variance (RM-ANOVA) was conducted to test for significant changes in the three parameters over time within each reactor. The assumption of sphericity was checked using Mauchly's test. The results show that the temperature values were between 26.1 °C and 52.9 °C, the CH4 content was between 28.5% and 60.1%, and the CO2 content was between 33.3% and 63.2%.
