How to get biogas by yourself?

At present, many people have questions about how to save their money and what. And the first thing that comes to mind is to reduce the cost of energy sources. It is known that electricity, the use of industrial gas in everyday life and many other things have come not so long ago in modern society. This does not mean that people have frozen or taken raw food. Even in ancient China, people used gas, which for many years was forgotten in connection with the appearance of more convenient sources of heat. At present, the use of this "forgotten" raw material for human needs has begun to resume.

This is partly due to:

- the emergence of reliable means that allow you to collect and store gas;

- a wide variety of pipes for gas withdrawal to the consumer;

- more rational method of obtaining biogas;

- an increase in the cost of energy.

What does biogas production mean? In the process of trapping or fermenting any organic matter without access to air, a gaseous product is released. The presence, in particular in rural areas, of a large amount of manure, various organic waste, plant tops, contributes to the fact that an increasing number of people want to produce biogas with their own hands. Usually all these wastes are piled into compost pits and after a certain time they are used as organic fertilizers. Many have begun to understand that the gas that secures the products when rotting can be used for its own purposes.

Biogas is 55 - 70% methane and 28 - 43% carbon dioxide, a very small percentage of other impurities. For the decomposition of waste requires the presence of certain bacteria that are formed under the influence of heat. As the temperature rises, fermentation of waste increases, so the first plants for biogas production were in countries where it is warm. The presence of a large number of substances that kill bacteria in modern detergents adversely affects the production of gas.

Summarizing, we can conclude: biogas can be obtained with the use of household waste and the presence of a certain temperature of fermentation. In addition, it should be noted that the contents of the tank, in which the organic mixture is located, should be stirred periodically.

What you need to do to get biogas at home? It is necessary to construct by own strength or to get a ready biogas plant. Its main elements are a reactor in the form of a dome and an unloading area. The gas released during the reaction is collected in the upper part of the dome. In the lower part, the processed biohumus is collected, which is discharged through the channel to the area of its unloading. The pressure intensifies and pushes out the waste, which is then used as a fertilizer. Gathered in the upper part of the dome comes through pipes to the place of consumption. This is how biogas is produced with our own hands.

When installing these devices in your home, a person has a number of advantages:

- reduction of energy costs;

- savings from garbage disposal;

- economy of means at the expense of application of the received fertilizers;

- surpluses of fertilizers can be sold and receive additional funds;

- Improvement of the environmental situation in connection with the disposal of garbage.

This is how biogas, obtained with its own hands, greatly improves the material situation of a person.
