IMPROVING A BIOGAS PLANT PARAMETERS IN THE CONVERSION CONTEXT OF REPLACING THE CORN SILO WITH AGRI-FOOD WASTE.

The large amount of organic waste resulted from the large urban agglomerations is an important source of landfill gas and consequently represents an important factor in the climate changing pollution effect. Although there are consistent efforts to reduce the volume of organic waste or to process it in a way which generate less landfill gas, there it is more work to be done in order to solve this problem. This article presents the work conducted to convert a biogas plant originally designed to use corn silage into a biogas plant which uses agri-food waste. Another important aspect presented in this article is the research on improving the qualitative parameters of biogas and the technical modifications conducted on the initial design to achieve a double quantity of biogas.
