What is Biogas?
"Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a biological process whereby organic material is decomposed by microorganisms in an oxygen-free environment to produce a renewable energy known as biogas. The biogas is made up of a mix of methane, carbon dioxide, trace amounts of hydrogen sulphide, ammonia, water vapour, and other gases, and has similar properties to propane. It can be used for similar applications such as heating, cooking, lighting, and electricity generation (Waste Characterization Study for a Northern Canadian Abattoir Naturally Northern Meats, 2019)."
Gasification: Advanced Thermal Treatment Technology
Gasification is the chemical transformation of solid or liquid waste into a gas. A limited amount of oxygen reacts with carbon-based matter (does not burn) and breaks it down into simpler molecules called syn gas, which is a mixture of hydrogen (H2) and carbon monoxide (CO).
