13_This is MAD.......Using Biogas

In this video I talk about Food Waste being a renewable resource. When food waste is put into a digester locally and produces Biogas, that biogas can be easily used and offset a home or business owner's fossil fuel use. There are multiple other advantages as well:
1. No transport of waste
2. No mixing of food waste with plastics or other wastes causing contamination.
3. Use of liquid fertiliser.
4. Reduce your carbon footprint.

I recently converted a natural gas stove to LP gas. The jet ports are all sized according to the size of the burner.

[@carllelendt5452]

The bigger the process, the easier and more efficient the process etc.. I'm retired from a big city in the USA that uses anaerobic multi-million gallon digesters (design dated to about mid/late 1940's. So hardly state-of-art now!) for methane production. "Scrubbing" and compressing is, of course, required. The gas powers the entire facility with a huge surplus sold back to grid and (that not allowed for sale to grid-) eliminated with waste gas burners. Anaerobic (methane producing) digester tech. is almost 100 yrs old. The anaerobic (municipal sewage) facility where I worked was built in 1950. Another observation is that aerobic processes are vastly more expensive to operate, and are no more, nor less bad-odor producing.

Great Video.

I don't recomend to drill "a bigger hole" into the nozzle. You need to know the exact nozzle hole diameter for the used gas. If anyone need to change a nozzle, you buy a nozzle for Popane-Butane or for Natural Gas/Biogas = Methane.

Hello! Could you please let me know how to get rid of the biogas bad smell, its mixes with our food and causes eye itching, etc too. We tried using carbon pallets but its not working.

Activated carbon pallets are not suitable tool for removing hydrogen sulfide (H2S). I recommend you use iron oxide pallets. It is not expensive compared to activated carbon pallets. It can remove hydrogen sulfide in biogas up to 98% by chemical bonding.

[@mygug5812]

Thanks for your comment, not as commonly available in Europe.

[@Boerikoe]

Thank you for your suggestion of iron oxide pellets... however where can one get these in EU ? I'm stuck.

[@user-me9tk4ow4z]

@@letsplaysquire3257 There are many videos on KZbin that use iron wool as a filter material without rusting. But that's the wrong way. Biogas does not rust iron wool because it contains only trace amounts of oxygen. Therefore, the surface of iron wool retains its original color without turning red-brown even after a long period of time. Iron wool is so fine that it burns when lit. Do not confuse household stainless steel scrubbers with iron wool.

Good luck

thanks.

Can activated carbon be used to reduce the moisture content from biogas?

[@mygug5812]

No not really. A moisture trap works best.

[@lastride9875]

So how often do you change the activated carbon?

[@mygug5812]

Depends on the gas flow but usually once or twice a year.

[@robertoconnor2669]

How do you maintain temperature of the digester?

[@mygug5812]

Our digesters are insulated and we have a proprietary heating system and controls.

[@vickykahiga3257]

How did you make the jet hole bigger

[@mygug5812]

Just a standard drill bit. Between 0.8mm to about 1.8mm depending on the size of the ring.

[@saliyaku]

Hi this is great. How can i find activated carbon?

[@mygug5812]

Not sure, where are you?

Gas is produced all the time as long as you put food waste in.

[@MariquitainSweden]

we are going by Biogas buses in the city I´m living on.

[@mygug5812]

We hope to make biogas usage a lot more common. Thanks Mariquita.

[@MariquitainSweden]

My pleasure@@mygug5812 !

[@giottino69]

Maybe biomethane? BioCH4 is biogas without all the impurities, like H2S, CO2, etc...

[@Bewefau]

is methane gas safe tho ?

What are you getting your gas from?

[@bizobloka8872]

50kg of compressed gas a year? That's long man? Please clarify.

[@mygug5812]

That is about 100,000 L of biogas a year.
