Q. Which effect will have to the supply of oxygen to the biogas plant?
Solution:
Solution:
The decomposition of organic matter produces biogas under the anaerobic condition with the help of microbes. It is known as gobar gas if the waste used is cow dung. There should be a proper construction of a biogas plant for the production of biogas. Biogas production is a three-step process involving multiple microbes. The acetogenesis, acidogenesis and methanogenesis involve acetogens, acid utilizing bacteria and methanogens. All these microbes which decompose organic matter are anaerobic, so if oxygen is supplied to the biogas plant, these microbes are not able to survive and the rate of gas production gets decreased.
