Biogas Production from Animal Manure

Abstract The continuous increase of the world's energy needs, extinction of fossil-based energy sources and changes caused by the destroyed natural balance requires the more effective use of fossil-based and renewable energy sources. Otherwise, an energy crunch will be inevitable in the near future of the world. Biogas is one of the many renewable energy sources. In this study, obtainable amount of biogas was determined by using data from hundred cattle in a farm. Then the amount of electricity that can be generated from biogas and economic benefits calculations were performed.
