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.

Feedstock
Raw material used to produce biogas.

Example: Common feedstocks include food waste and animal manure.

Fixed Dome
A type of biogas plant with a fixed gas holder.

Example: Fixed dome plants are commonly used in rural areas.

Floating Drum
A biogas plant design where the gas holder floats on the digester contents.

Example: Floating drum plants are easy to maintain and operate.

Plug Flow
A type of anaerobic digestion system where feedstock moves through the digester in a plug-like manner.

Example: Plug flow systems are efficient for high solid content feedstocks.
