Biogas is a renewable energy source just like solar and wind energy. It is a mixture of gas produced by the dissolution of organic material in the absence of oxygen.
Its main component is hydrocarbons, which are flammable and get heat and energy upon burning.
Biogas is produced by a biochemical process, under which certain types of bacteria turn biological wastes into useful biogas.
This useful gas is produced by biological processes, hence it is called biogas. Methane gas is the main component of biogas.
Biogas is a source of energy that can be used again and again.
You know that it can also be used for domestic and agricultural purposes.
The gas obtained from the biogas plant is used for cooking and lighting.
100 percent petrol and up to 80 percent diesel can also be saved by running bi-fuel engine with biogas.
Such engines are used to produce electricity and pump water from wells.
