ORGANIC MATERIAL POTENTIAL AND ENERGY ANALYSIS FOR BIOGAS APPLICATION OF BATMAN

Abstract

With the decrease of fossil fuels in the world, increasing energy costs causedthe countries to turn to different kinds of energy sources. One of these sourcesis biogas energy which is a renewable energy source. Biogasorganic is a kindof energy resulting from the fermentation of domestic and industrial wastesindoor environment.In this study, biogas amounts and energy analysis which can be obtained bydetermining the potentials of organic (animal and herbal) wastes belongingto Batman province have been made. As a result of the researches, 52% of thetotal wastes in the province of Batman are composed of organic wastes.According to the data obtained in the calculations; It has been found that thebiogas production potential in Batman province is 115,745 m 3 / day biogasand 544,000 KWh / day electrical energy from the wastes and 1.563 m3 / daybiogas and 7.346 KWh / day electrical energy from the vegetable wastes. Theobtained data are given in table and graph
