Author(s): ER Jasvarinder Chalotra and Dr. Sarbjit Singh Sooch
Abstract: The main objective of this research is to introduce the developed technology for utilizing the paddy straw for biogas generation. This technology is an alternative of LPG cylinder, which is used by major population of India. This technology is a part of paddy straw management policy. This paper present the paddy straw as a useful renewable energy source. It also represents the practical to utilize the paddy straw as a cooking gas. The design and data of paddy straw based biogas plant are discussed in this paper. The biogas generation by paddy straw utilization is due to anaerobic digestion in the absence of oxygen. The feeding material is paddy straw mixed with cattle dung. Total capacity is 1600 kg paddy straw and 400 kg cattle dung. This is batch type system. Size of plant is 10 feet diameter x 10 feet depth.
