摘要
Energy recovery and electricity generation from abattoir wastes was investigated with the aim of combating both energy crises and environmental pollution problems. Anaerobic digestion was carried out in a two 10 L batch digesters for about 30 days under mesophilic condition. Biogas volume was measured by water displacement method at every 24 h interval. Based on the volume of biogas produced and its methane composition, electricity value of the produced biogas was estimated. Daily average and cumulative gas volumes of 0.00103 m(3)/kg VS (1.03 liters) and 0.0309 m(3)/kg VS (30.90 liters) were obtained respectively with 63.4% methane composition. The results suggest that 1040 MWh and 1664.6 MWh of electricity can be generated from biogas at low-end conversion efficiency of 25% and at high-end conversion efficiency respectively. The study concluded that waste to wealth technology, if appropriately explored is a viable solution to energy crises in Nigeria. (C) 2020 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
