Energy and emission benefits of chicken manure biogas production - A case study

Bu çalışma, 05-08, Aralık 2017 tarihlerinde San Diego[Kaliforniya]’da düzenlenen 6. IEEE International Conference on Renewable Energy Research and Applications (ICRERA) Kongresi‘nde bildiri olarak sunulmuştur.Studies on the production of biogas of different organic materials in an anaerobic environment are being carried out all over the world. The most important parameters in these researches can he listed as raw material potential, production processes, economic analyses and environmental effects. Chicken manure is one of the raw materials used in biogas production. In this study, in addition to the analysis of biogas and energy production potential from chicken manure, greenhouse gas emissions were analyzed to evaluate environmental effects. In Turkey, chicken manure is not adequately processed and causes environmental pollution. The model biogas plant and potential energy generation were researched in this field study. The pilot plant produces 8.58 million m(3) of biogas per year by processing about 110 thousand tons of waste. It produces 17 GWhlyear of electricity and 16 CWh/year of thermal energy, as well as reducing CO2 greenhouse gas emissions by 13.86 thousand tons/year.IEEE Ind Applicat SocIESIEEJIEICE Commun SocKBSoftwareIEEEIJRERPEL
