Biogas from Waste and Renewable Resources

The book includes detailed descriptions of all the process steps to be followed during the production of biogas, from the preparation of the suitable substrate to the use of biogas, the end product. Each individual stage is assessed and discussed in depth, taking the different aspects like application and potential into account. Biological, chemical, and engineering processes are detailed in the same way as apparatus, automatic control, and energy or safety engineering. With the help of this book, both laymen and experts should be able to learn or refresh their knowledge, which is presented concisely, simply, and clearly, with many illustrations. The book can also be used for reference, and includes many tables and a large index. It is strongly recommended to planners and operators of biogas plants, as it gives good advice on how to maximize the potential of the plant.
