Key Terms

Biogas
A mixture of gases produced by the anaerobic digestion of organic matter.

Example: Biogas can be used for cooking and electricity generation.

Anaerobic Digestion
A biological process that breaks down organic material in the absence of oxygen.

Example: Anaerobic digestion is used in biogas plants to produce energy.

Organic Waste
Waste material that comes from living organisms, such as food scraps and manure.

Example: Organic waste can be converted into biogas.

Methane
A primary component of biogas, which is a potent energy source.

Example: Methane is produced during the anaerobic digestion process.

Digestate
The residual material left after anaerobic digestion, which can be used as fertilizer.

Example: Digestate enriches soil when applied in agriculture.

Feedstock
Raw material used to produce biogas, such as agricultural waste or food scraps.

Example: Corn silage is a common feedstock for biogas production.
