BIOGAS AND BIOMASS
Introduction: Biogas and biomass plants are both forms of renewable energy that convert organic matter into energy. However, they use different types of organic matter and have different processes to produce energy A biogas plant, converts organic waste materials, such as food waste, agricultural waste, and sewage, into methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) through the process of anaerobic digestion. The mixture of methane and CO2 is known as biogas, which can be used as a fuel for heating, electricity generation, and transportation. Biogas plants also produce a nutrient-rich byproduct called digestate, which can be used as a fertilizer. A biomass plant, on the other hand, converts organic matter, such as wood, agricultural residues, and energy crops, into energy through the process of combustion. The organic matter is burned in a boiler to produce heat, which is then used to generate electricity and steam. Biomass plants can also be used to produce liquid biofuels, such as bioet
