Produção de hidrogênio por reforma a vapor de biogás

A new approach to generating clean energy has been studied by several researchers, among which one can highlight the steam reforming of biogas. The Biogas is result of decomposition of organic matter and it hasn’t been availed in the global level, instead, the biogas has been burned in flare or discarded into the atmosphere providing damage to the environment. The generation of vector biogas energy can be realized through its steam reforming and this work examines briefly the types of digesters used for biogas generation, studying the process of steam reforming to generate hydrogen as energy vector, analyzing each step in detail, seeking to adapt its main features an ethanol reformer for a biogas reformer. Besides this it is estimated the yield of the reform process and the boiler efficiency for efficiency of the process

Tratamento de manipueira de fecularia em biodigestor anaerobio para disposição em corpo receptor, rede pública ou uso em fertirrigação

O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar a eficiência do tratamento da manipueira de extração de fécula de mandioca, em separado da água de lavagem das raízes, através de biodigestores anaeróbicos de fluxo ascendente, com separação das fases, sem controle de temperatura ou adição de produtos químicos e, avaliar sua adequabilidade, através de suas características físicas e químicas para lançamento em corpo receptor, sistema público coletor de esgotos ou, aplicação em processod e fertirrigação. Depois dos reatores estabilizados, foram realizados ensaios variando a vazão de alimentação com 8,0; 12,0 e 16,0 L/d, correspondentes a um tempo de retenção hidráulica de 8,17; 5,44 e 4,08 dias, respectivamente. Os melhores resultados para redução da carga orgânica foram obtidos com os tempos de retenção hidráulica (TRH) de 8,17 e 5,44 dias com eficiências médias de 89,8% e 80,9%, respectivamente. As características físicas e químicas dos efluentes tratados foram comparadas com os valores estabelecidos na legislação estadual, federal e, com os parâmetros utilizados pelo orgão ambiental fiscalizador. Os resultados obtidos mostraram que o efluente tratado atende parcialmente aos requisitos legais para o lançamento em corpos receptores, devido ao teor elevado de nitrogênio amoniacal. Por outro lado, foram atendidos integralmente os requisitos legais para o lançamento na rede pública coletora de esgotos. O efluente tratado não atendeu às recomendações requeridas pelo orgão ambiental fiscalizador para a sua disposição através do processo de fertirrigação devido aos teores elevados de ferro (Fe) e de fluoretos (F). Considerando os resultados obtidos, concluímos que, devido à simplicidade do sistema utilizado, com a implantação de melhorias como um pós-tratamento, poderiam ser atingidos os parâmetros que atenderiam integralmente a legislação.

Avaliação da redução de matéria orgânica do tratamento do efluente líquido deextração de fécula de mandioca por processo de biodigestão anaeróbia.

The aim of this paper was to evaluate the efficiency of the treatment of cassava wastewater, separately from the root washing water, by means of ascending flux anaerobic digesters, with separation of the phases, without temperature control or addition of chemical products and to evaluate its suitability by means of its physical and chemical characteristics for throwing in receiving body, public sewage system or application in fertilization and irrigation. After reactors had been stabilized, essays were conducted varying feeding flow with 8.0, 12.0 and 16.0 Ld-1 corresponding to a hydraulic retention time of 8.17, 5.44 and 4.08 days, respectively. The best reduction for organic load reduction were obtained with hydraulic retention times (HRT) of 8.17 and 5.44 days with mean efficiencies of 89.8 and 90.9%, respectively.

Análise da viabilidade do uso de biogás gerado a partir de dejetos bovinos em microturbinas para fins de geração, cogeração e trigeração de energia

The use of digesters has become an important alternative for the proper disposal of organic agricultural wastes, serving as a solution to some environmental and health problems. Furthermore, the process of digestion provides commercially valuable by products such as biogas and bio fertilizer. The generation of biogas from agricultural waste, and its use in power generation systems has aroused great interest in rural areas because it enables supply in whole or in large part the energy demand of ownership by reducing production costs. The advent of technology has brought new forms of energy conversion of biogas, as the use of micro turbines specifies to be fuelled with biogas derived from the decomposition of organic matter in digesters, since it has a low level of methane in its composition, and high degree of impurities such as hydrogen sulphide, which are harmful to equipment and reduce the calorific value of biogas. The use of micro turbines behind other advantages like low emissions, great fuel flexibility and low maintenance. This paper presents an analysis of the feasibility of using biogas generated from cattle manure in micro turbines to generate electricity. Behind also an assessment of the energy potential that each animal has on various uses of biogas, and forms of energy recovery from the exhaust gases of the micro turbine. Also conducts an evaluation of the energy savings that the use of biogas aggregates properties.

Co-digestão anaeróbia de dejetos de suínos, níveis de inclusão de óleo de descarte e microrganismos lipolíticos redução do impacto ambiental

The objective of this work for evaluating the potential of biogas and methane productions and still and reductions in levels of total solids (TS), volatile solids (VS) and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) of the co-digestion anaerobic digestion in digesters fed with swine manure plus disposal of oil and lyophilized microorganisms. For assay development substrates were prepared containing 4% TS, consisting of swine manure, disposal oil (the proportions 8, 10 and 12% oil content in relation to the substrate TS), lyophilized microorganisms (Biol-2000 ® - concentrations of 10 g/m3 and 15 g/m3 ), water for dilution of this waste and inoculum for batch digesters supply. There was no significant difference with respect to reductions in TS, VS and NDF constituents, providing very significant reductions in average 54.14; 62.79 and 49.16% respectively. Regarding the potential of biogas production, the highest yields occurred in digesters supplied with 10% oil and 15 g/m3 of Biol®, being 0.43 and 0.54 L of biogas per kg of TS and VS added, respectively, similar results were found when assessed the potential for methane production, with higher values (0.22 and 0.27 L of methane per kg of TS added and VS, respectively) obitidos the same treatment. The inclusion of 15 g/m3 in Biol® substrate composition containing swine manure and 10% of oil improves the yields of biogas and methane.

Viabilidade econômica do uso do biogás proveniente da suinocultura em substituição a fontes externas de energia

The swine culture potentially generates waste with high organic load and pollutants, being responsible for the spread of pathogens, contamination of rivers, groundwater and soils, besides it produces foul odors and emit greenhouse gases. However, the high amount of organic matter, which expresses the amount of pollutant load, reflects the energetic potential of these wastes used as raw material in biogas generation through technology of digesters. The properly use of theses digesters provides the production of clean energy and promotes the conservation of the environment. The economic viability of the implantation of an Indian model digester on a small swine farm was verified based on the value from initial investments of deployment, maintenance costs, depreciation, and on the interest and revenues arising from the system. Besides, the amount of biogas produced daily and the average consumption of biogas by the most common used devices such as refrigerator, stove, water heater, and generator of electricity was calculated.. For a backdrop of 10 years, the results of economic indicators NPV of BRL 57,598.95, IRR of 48.38%, Simple Payback of 2.06 years, and Discounted Payback of 2.3 years, demonstrated a favorable outlook for the use of this technology, with the possibility to generate economic, social and environmental benefits.
