Abstract

Facing energy crisis and climate change, the world is in need of a green, efficient, carbon-neutral energy source to replace fossil fuels. The search for energy alternatives involving locally available and renewable resources is one of the main concerns of governments, scientists, and business people worldwide. Biogas, formed by anaerobic digestion of organic materials, makes sustainable, reliable, and renewable energy possible. There is potential for biogas production from kitchen waste, and at the same time, the waste itself can be treated to minimize the environmental impact and provide nutrient-rich organic fertilizer. The study’s main objective was to design an anaerobic digester that utilizes food waste to generate biogas for use in Vivekanand Education Society Polytechnic Institute’s (VESP) kitchen. The institute’s main source of energy was mainly wood fuel, supplemented with liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) which is very expensive. Hence this project may help VESP to generate Biogas by utilizing food waste, which is less expensive than Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) and also environmentally friendly.
