Abstract
The production and application of biogas is documented. Biogas is a product of anaerobic fermentation of organic wastes and consists of methane, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulphide, and other gases. Biogas can be used for lighting, source of heat for cooking and warming the house. Stationary engines, cars and trucks hitherto running on diesel and petrol can be converted to run successfully on biogas either wholly or in combination with diesel and petrol respectively. The digested sludge and slurry from biogas digester are also useful as manure, for algae production, and as feed material for fish, pig etc. Biogas can also be used as a veritable means of controlling pollution as well as for conservation and developments purposes. Governments are advised to create awareness on the production and utilization of biogas to fully utilize the benefit derivable from that aspect of renewable energy technologies (RET).
