How we can estimate methane gas generation through complete anaerobic degradation of 1 kg COD at Standard Temperature and Pressure?

05 May 2018 1 7K Report

Expecting the quickest and easiest way to calculate it, if any.

Hello Shukra,

It is admitted that for 1kgCOD you can expect 0.35Nm3 of methane. But it is if you considered that all of the COD is biodegradable.

You can find a good discussion on this topic on this link: https://www.researchgate.net/post/What_is_the_relation_between_COD_of_Influent_waste_water_and_expected_biogas_production

Kind regards.
