Abstract:
Biogas is produced by anaerobic digestion of various organic substances such
as kitchen wastes, agricultural wastes, municipal solid wastes, and cow dung.
Biogas has a good ability of formatting homogeneous mixture with air, and
clean combustion nature; in contrast of harmful emissions that result from
using another fuels, In addition to abundance of organic substances. In this
project raw biogas contains about 57% methane (CH4), 43% carbon dioxide
(CO2), traces of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and fractions of water vapor, 20.52
MJ/m3 calorific value was tested as fuel for diesel-generator set through
modified the diesel engine of generator to operate with biogas-diesel dual
fuel system for supplying constant load, the test was covered the
consumption rate of biogas in m3/kwh, the percentage saving in the
consumption rate of diesel fuel, and the percentage of increase the amount of
exhaust carbon dioxide (CO2). And the results were 0.45m3/kwh, 45%,
18.52%, respectively.
