BIODIGESTOR: estudo do potencial energético, a partir do biogás, no município de Varginha – MG

Abstract

This work contains the potential for biogas generation in the municipality of Varginha, defined by analyzing the amount of effluent received at sewage treatment plants and the amount of existing cattle. Shows an overview on the various types of alternative sources of renewable energy. Among renewables, biomass stands out for having excellent availability and providing compounds that although employees can come to generate energy. A good demonstration of clean energy generation are the digesters that utilize the reuse of biomass such as animal waste, organic materials, and even urban sewage for obtaining biogas. Exemplifies with the sewage treatment plant of Green Gold, the generation of clean energy, reduce emission of methane into the atmosphere from the use of biodigester. This study aims to show the types of digesters existing advantages and applications, contains a sizing up of a digester Indian model for a small producer. This equipment, in addition to protecting the environment, reducing the burden of pollution released into rivers, also promotes a reduction in the emission of greenhouse gases and can mean a lot for a future with sustainable development, for the sanitation company and / or for the producer.
