Protect our Environment

We have to protect our environment for our life and for our children's future. We are all responsible for the changes in the environment. We must find a solution for utilising the natural resources and reduce the environmental pollution.

BIO GAS

1 Formation First stage consists into making the waste dissolvable by the enzymes secreted from micro organisms.
Then, the acid forming bacteria takes action and transforms these substances into small- structured substances like acetic acid.
After that the methane forming bacteria converts these substances into biogas.
Hydrolysis stage: Long chained complex carbohydrates proteins oils and lipids are transmuted into short chained forms. The first step known as hydrolysis is completed after this transmutation into basic organics.
Acid formation stage: The dissolvable organic materials are transformed into small- structured materials as acetic acid volatile fatty acids hydrogen and carbon dioxide.
Methane formation: The stage of acetic acid disintegration or hydrogen and carbon dioxide synthesis to acquire biogas by bacteria. 2 Factors that effect biogas production The effects of heat: Methanogenic bacteria are inactive at very high or very low temperatures. That’s why the reactor heat effects the biogas production or its speed directly.
The effects of PH: The most suitable PH levels for methane producing bacteria are neutral or have slightly alkali rates.
The effects of toxicity: Antibiotic addition to foods in chicken farming has a toxicity effect in chicken compost using systems in biogas production.
The effects of organic load speed: Organic load speed is daily organic material supply amount to bioreactors. 3 The Economy of biogas Production The most important factors are the economical wastes’ worth and their biogas efficiency. The selected technology takes effects in production efficiency and costs as well as in investment costs. The discounts or limitations on these energy sources by local executives change the convenience of biogas economy. It must be calculated how these investments will pay back and how these values will effect the investment’ cost. 4 Advantages of Biogas In our country animal and herbal wastes are burned directly or they are used as compost agricultural soil. But it is more common to burn wastes for heat production.
Biogas production provides storage or organic wastes under controllable-suitable conditions. The uncontrolled storage of farm originated organic wastes-composts pollutes water earthy and the air. 5 Benefits of biogas production Biogas is a clean and high heat-capacited energy source.
Wastes do not perish. Instead of that, they become a more valuable compost.
The weeds in animal compost cannot germinate.
Biogas has especially positive health effects in rural areas. Smell of animal compost disappears widely after biogas production. Also, disease agents threatening human health coming from animal waste become inactive.
