Waste Inlet
Digester
Waste Outlet
Balloon / Reservior
DESCRIPTION
Methane gas digester treats organic wastes, like animal and food waste, in a
sustainable way. It uses Anaerobic digestion process, in which organic matter such as
animal or food waste is broken down to produce biogas and bio fertilizer. This process
happens in the absence of oxygen, so the digester must be tight sealed. The bacteria
east up the waste came from the waste inlet and digest. Once they had digested they
release gases mostly methane gas, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen and also water
vapor, digestate is another product of digester that is useful in the farm as a fertilizer.
Methane rises to the top of the container and travels the pipe to be collected in balloon
or any reservoir and burned to produce heat or generate electricity. Once the oxygen air
is inside the bacteria will die and there will be no methane gas produced. The container
must not be transparent because if the sunlight passes through the algae inside will
have food to eat, use light, water and Carbon dioxide inside for photosynthesis and
releases oxygen that will kill all the bacteria.
