Methane(CH4)- 50 - 75%, Carbon dioxide(CO2)- 25-50%, Nitrogen(N2)-0-10%, Hydrogen(H2)-0-1%, Hydrogen Sulfide(H2S)-0-3%, Oxygen(O2)-0-0%

In some cases, biogas contains siloxanes. These siloxanes are formed from the anaerobic decomposition of materials commonly found in soaps and detergents. During combustion of biogas containing siloxanes, silicon is released and can combine with free oxygen or various other elements in the combustion gas. Deposits are formed containing mostly silica (SiO2) or silicates (SixOy) and can also contain calcium, sulfur, zinc, phosphorus. Such white mineral deposits accumulate to a surface thickness of several millimeters and must be removed by chemical or mechanical means.

The major constituent of biogas is methane, which typically makes up around 50-70% of the gas composition. Other components of biogas include carbon dioxide, water vapor, and small amounts of hydrogen sulfide, nitrogen, and oxygen.

How do you calculate the amount of electricity from biogas?

To calculate the amount of electricity generated from biogas, you need to know the biogas production rate (measured in cubic meters per day), the biogas composition (methane content), and the efficiency of the biogas generator. You can then use these values to determine the electrical output in kilowatt-hours.

Can biogas be used at home for stoves?

yes, as biogas is an inflammable substance as it contains methane as major component. It is environmentally sound to use biogas. it produces negligible amounts of smoke. Gas can be directed into kitchen through pipes and control valves from the biogas processor tank called digester. INFACT, this method is principally used in areas of northern Punjab of India. many developing countries follow this method.
