It is now agreed that renewable energy is one of the major mechanisms that base-load energy requirements of the future will be met. Our collective efforts must be employed to ensure that the circular economy is fully implemented and precious resources are conserved, not only for today but for all our tomorrows. Biogas offers a unique opportunity to ensure that our energy is renewable and sustainable.

Biogas can be produced in digesters. Production depends on the following factors: Organic content, Wet or dry waste, Land availability. There are several different types of digester technologies including lagoons which are typically employed when the feedstock is wastewater effluent from agricultural waste or animal manure. Using this technology, typical retention time of material is between 30 and 40 days for the biogas to reach full production. A lagoon is a good option when sufficient land is available.

To use biogas in any industrial process, it is important that the gas is filtered, or conditioned, prior to use. Technologies employed may include H2S or CO2 removal. H2S is a highly corrosive trace element of biogas and can be present in elevated concentrations if the biogas is produced from agricultural waste or extracted from landfills where there is a high content of gypsum.
