Domestic Biodigester

Prepared by MicroEnergy International GmbH with the collaboration of Davide Forcella (CERMi-ULB), 2014.

Domestic biodigesters convert biomass from different sources (cattle or pig manure, agricultural residue) into combustible biogas and bio-slurry, which can be used as organic fertilizer. The biogas is a mixture of methane and carbon dioxide and can be effectively used in gas stoves for cooking and gas lamps for lighting.
