INRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND

Bio-gas is the mixture of gas produced by the breakdown of organic matter in

the absence of oxygen usually consisting of certain quantities of methane (CH4)

and carbon dioxide (CO2) several other gases. Animal wastes are rich in

methane and can be used to produce biomass through the process of anaerobic

digestion of animal waste and slurries in an airproof system known as digester.

There are also environmental benefits of reducing greenhouse gas emission

through the use of biogas. Methane, CH4 is the main compound of biogas. It has

a high energy value equal to 802 kJ/mole Carbon Dioxide, CO2, is a non-

corrosive gas that doesn’t have any energy value.

The energy crisis in the world especially in Pakistan is facing severe economic

crunch due to continuously growing gap between energy demand and supply.

The political and economic conditions of Pakistan have resulted in negligence

towards the energy needs of rural areas in the country especially Balochistan.

Balochistan is (economically) the poorest province in Pakistan and is going

through some very crucial energy crisis. Pakistan is an agricultural country in

which 62% of population lives in rural areas and meet their 92% of domestic

energy needs by burning biomass resources in inefficient cook stoves. (Amjid,

ET al.2011). The use of biomass in traditional cook stoves (TCS) in unventilated

rooms has been identified as the primary cause of indoor air pollution (IAP).

The IAP has significant impact on the environment and health of human beings

in Pakistan. About 28,000 people die each year due to IAP. (Bhattacharya, S.C.

et al. (2002), Biogas, a clean burning methane-rich gaseous fuel produced


through decomposition of biomass with absence of air. We need to create

demand for biogas and for carbon. We should also advance clean energy and

carbon utilization technology, as doing so is necessary to keep global warming

under 2 degrees Celsius. We should also promote research and investment in

advanced energy technology. Biogas produced from domestic-scale digesters is

a clean and cheap fuel that can be used for cooking and heating.

Pakistan is facing severe economic crunch due to continuously growing gap

between energy demand and supply. The shortage in power and gas supply has

already halted many industrial se about 14% of the worldwide primary energy

supply is provided by biomass resources equivalent to 72 EJ each year, and 38%

of total energy supply in developing countries [International Energy Agency;

2010]. Since half of the world population lives in rural areas of developing

countries, most of biomass is consumed in these regions. It has been estimated

that Kenya derives about 68%, India 47%, Pakistan 27%, Brazil 25% and China

13% of their total energy from biomass. Due to rapid industrialization and\

economic growth in developing countries, the incorporation of fossil fuels in

total energy supply has declined the total share of biomass. However, an

increasing trend in usage of biomass resources can be observed in these

countries, growing at an annual rate of over 2% [Shukla PR 1997]. The increase

in utilization of biomass is mainly attributed to ever growing population rate,

poor economic conditions, and unavailability factors such as textile, small and

medium enterprises and local transportation. The World Biogas Association is

the global trade association for the biogas, landfill gas and anaerobic digestion

(AD) sectors, dedicated to facilitating the adoption of biogas globally. We

believe that the global adoption of biogas technologies is a multi-faceted


opportunity to produce clean, renewable energy while resolving global issues

related to development, public health and economic growth (Newman n.d.)

1.1.1 Biogas useful

The gases methane, hydrogen, and carbon monoxide (CO) can be combusted or

oxidized with oxygen. This energy release allows biogas to be used as a fuel; it

can be used for any heating purpose, such as cooking. It can also be used in a

gas engine to convert the energy in the gas into electricity and heat.

1.2 BIOGAS PLANT

A biogas plant is where biogas is produced by fermenting biomass. The

substrate used for the production of this methane-containing gas usually consists

of energy crops such as corn, or waste materials such as manure or food waste.

1.2.1 Structure of biogas Plant


1.2.2 Parts of Biogas Plant

1. Mixing Tank
Present above the ground level
2. Inlet Tank
The mixing tank opens underground in to a sloping inlet chamber

3. Digester

The inlet chamber open from below into the digester which is a huge tank with

a dome like ceiling. The ceiling of the digester has an outlet with value for the

suppling of biogas.

4. Outlet tank

The digester open from below into an outlet chamber

1.2.3 Type of Biogas Plant

1. Fixed Dome Biogas plant

A fixed-dome plant comprises of a closed, dome-shaped digester with an

immovable, rigid gas-holder and a displacement pit, also named 'compensation

tank'. The gas is stored in the upper part of the digester. When

gas production commences, the slurry is displaced into the compensating tank

2. Floating Drum Plant

Floating-drum plants consist of an underground digester and a moving gas-

holder. The gas-holder floats either directly on the fermentation slurry or in a

water jacket of its own. The gas is collected in the gas drum, which rises or

moves down, according to the amount of gas stored.

3. Balloon Biogas Plant


A balloon plant consists of a heat-sealed plastic or rubber bag (balloon), combining

digester and gas-holder. The gas is stored in the upper part of the balloon. The inlet

and outlet are attached directly to the skin of the balloon. Gas pressure can be

increased by placing weights on the balloon.

1.2.4 Advantages

Production of large amount of methane gas (ambient temperature storage)

2. Production of free flowing thick sludge

3. Odorless sludge

4. Sludge can be used as fertilizing and soil conditions

5. Sanitary way for human and animal waste disposal

1.2.3 Disadvantages

1. Explosion chances

2. High capital coast

3. Incorrect handling of liquid sludge causes pollution

4. Need proper condition


1.3 PROBLEM STATEMENT

The rural population of Balochistan meets their domestic cooking and heating

energy needs by burning biomass in inefficient TCS resulting in deforestation,

IAP and associated health hazards. They are using wood ,charcoal ,cow dung as

fuel for cooking which are effecting the forest, wood burning stoves produce

harmful toxin that can damage your lungs and increase the risk of cancer, heart

disease and premature death, Pollutant in wood smoke can cause the eyes ,nose,

and throat to burn with irritation ,and even cause headaches, green house. The

amount of pollution has generated burning wood, fire wood, can add poisonous

gases to the environment. The main problem is forests of consume, about 7000

has of land is deforest in Pakistan every year (Qamar et al.).

1.4 JUSTIFICATION AND SCOPE

Biogas energy is a modern renewable energy source. Biogas energy is efficient

and cheap solution for the use of basic households. Biogas improves cleanness

and protects the environment. Biogas also reduce diseases caused by fuel wood

smoke. The use of bio-gas plant to produce energy can bring a new vision in

energy sector. Gas generated through bio digestion is nonpolluting it actually

reduce greenhouse emission and it’s also low-income source of energy to

control the deforestation.

1.5 BIOGAS AS SOLUTION

Biogas, a clean burning methane-rich gaseous fuel produced through

decomposition of biomass with absence of air.

Biogas produced from domestic-scale digesters is a clean and cheap fuel that

can be used for cooking and heating.


1.5 AIM AND OBJECTIVE

1. The aim of this study is to use biogas cooking and heating resource in Sordo

village district Panjgur, Balochistan, Pakistan.

2. To assess cooking energy demand of the rural household

3. To assess the resource potential for biogas production

4. To design biogas plants for rural households.


CHAPTER 02

LITERATURE REVIEWS

2.1 Case study 1 (Research Paper 2019)

Yasmin et al. (2019) this study takes women empowerment as the research

focus in the context of technology transition, given that there is a knowledge

gap at present. For this research, the term women empowerment refers to how

women’s status in the household determines the decision-making process.

Specifically, this study investigates whether there are any links between

women’s status and their role in making a decision toward the shift in cooking

fuel. In rural areas, the responsibilities of women are not only confined to

performing household duties, but they are also responsible for the collection and

management of the cooking fuel (e.g. Animal dung, fuel wood, and crop

residues).Much of the population that uses biomass as the main source of energy

lives in rural areas where 62% of biomass users collect woods and shrubs; 24%

of biomass users purchase fuel wood to meet their energy requirements. The

development world where a population of 2.5 billion is still using solid biomass

for cooking, according to world health organization, compared to developed

countries, population in developing countries suffer more from pollution caused

by traditional cooking technology which cause the death 1.3 million children

and women each year.

Ahmad et al. (2019) Biogas is a viable source of energy to tackle the problem

of this energy crisis in agriculture-based developing countries like Pakistan. A

6m3 capacity novel fixed-dome digester was installed and operated at variable

temperatures (30 to 42 0C) in order to assess its potential, typically of the


southern Punjab, Pakistan, from July 2018 to august 2018 and different, pH and

gas production were recorded. Pakistan has an abundant amount of waste

produced in the form of cattle dung, poultry waste, and municipal waste. A large

number of official databases and literature have been surveyed and analyzed to

address the characterization of the biogas digestive and the potential form live

stokes waste in district Khandwa. Biogas production potential in district

Khandwa buffalos and cows are 1085644, dung produced (kg/day) 16284660,

biogas production potential (m3 /day) 732808

Haseeb et al. (2019) the study was carried out in the Dera Ismail Khan District

of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan. This research endeavor attempted

to investigate the impact the biogas technology is imposing on the households

that have adopted it. A total of 162 households composed of both adopters and

non-adopters of the technology were surveyed in the Dera Ismail Khan District

of Pakistan in addition to the meetings and discussions with the relevant

stakeholders. ogas technology has been prevalent in Pakistan for quite a while

dating back to 1959 when the first use of this technology was made in

construction of a farm manure plant in Sindh for biogas generation, used mostly

in cooking. Another resurgence of the program occurred in 1990 when 1700

new plants were installed all over the country. 2000 Biogas Support

Programmed (BSP) helped set up 1200 new digesters, amounting to 27% of

domestic biogas capacity.


2.2 Case Study 2 (Research Papers 2018)

Madonna et al. (2018) this research based on upgrading and liquefaction in an

anaerobic digester plant. Biogas is an attractive fuel since it has a zero-carbon

footprint and can be produced from waste organic materials such as manure,

organic waste from agricultural activities, sewage from water treatment plant

and municipal bio waste. Sewage treatment may represent a significant

contribution to the increase of biogas production various upgrading techniques

are currently available on the market which can provide a high-quality bio-

methane, with a content of CH4 which varies from 95 to 97% [7]. The

liquefaction process for small-scale system is a technology which is recently

available on the market but is characterized by an elevated specific energy

consumption.

Dorella et al. (2018) In this paper, based on the kinetical analysis and BMP

determined through a set of experiments lead by the authors at the Riga

Technical University, the use of biological feed stokes from farm and agriculture

origin together with the use of alternative feed stokes like marine microalgae

provide benefits in term of waste management and avoided natural resource

extraction. The environment is seriously threatened by the modern human

practices, especially by energy production and transports. The global warming

is only one of the numerous issues to manage and specifically it is mainly due

to the CO2 air emissions brought by the massive employment of fossil fuels.

Biofuels, i.e. fuels produced by biomass, seem to be an interesting solution in

order to replace, at least partly, this source of energy and consequently reducing

greenhouse gases emissions.


Kamran (2018) this paper is based on future success of renewable energy in

Pakistan. Growth rate of livestock sector in Pakistan is 4% annually and 72

million buffalos and cows, producing 1140-million-ton dung, are there in

Pakistan.1m3 biogas in generated from 20kg of manure. Pakistan council of

renewable energy technology, Pakistan council of appropriate technology,

Alternative energy development board and Pakistan renewable energy society

are working to develop new biogas technologies and installing biogas plants to

harness the available potential throughout the country. Till 2002, 4500 biogas

plant had been installed under different projects in difference areas of Pakistan

in 2006 under this project 400 plants more than the target were installed. Abbas

et al.

2.3 Case Study 3 (Research Papers 2017)

Abbas et al. (2017) this study attempts to estimate the economics of biogas plant

in Faisalabad district. The availability of biomass in Pakistan is widespread.

Approximately 50,000 tons of solid waste, 225,000 tons of crop residue and over

1 million tons of animals manure are produced daily.it is estimated that the

potential production of biogas from livestock residue is 8.8-17.2 billion cubic

meters of gas per year (equivalent to 55 to 106 TWh of energy) .Despite the fact

that household biogas technology was introduced in the early 60,s in Pakistan,

the number of biogas plants its capacity the country is believed to have.
2.4 Case Study 4 (Research Papers 2016)

Yasser Abbas et al. (2016) Had worked on Future Prospects of biogas in

Pakistan, Pakistan, being an agriculture country, annually million tons of solid

organics waste in the form of biomass such as corn cob, cotton waste, rice husk,

wheat straw, wheat stalk and other energy crop residues; this biomass has great

potential for biogas production.in Pakistan, total 172.2 million livestock animals

produce 652 million kg dung per day. This large amount of dung can be used

for biogas production. In the year 1959, Pakistan has installed its first biogas

plant in Sindh. In 1974 Pakistan council for appropriate technology has installed

10 biogas plants installed in Azad jammu & Kashmir. in 2002 Biogas support

program launched 1200 biogas plant and 10000 biogas plant were projected to

be established until 2006.in 2009 under Pakistan Dairy Development Company

556 plants have been installed.

Soomro et al. (2016) this paper is based on Cook Stove for Sindh, the poor

burns biomass energy to encounter their household cooking needs. These open

fires are fairs are fairly inefficient at converting energy into heat for cooking:

the amount of biomass fuel needed each year for basic cooking can reach up to

2 ton per family. About 730 million tons of biomass burned each year and more

than 1 billion tons of carbon dioxide emitted out into the atmosphere .the house

hold rural technology that is currently used for cooking is very and is

haphazardly or gained by placing three stone in a triangle position with enough

of space in between, to place the twigs and biomass materials for burning.
CHAPTER 3

METHODOLOGY

3.1 Study Area

Baluchistan is one of the four provinces of Pakistan it is the largest province in

term of land area forming the southwestern region of the country, but least

populated, Baluchistan being the poorest province of the country .over all 71%

of the population in Baluchistan is multi-dimension ally poor rural population

85% and urban population 38% dimensionally poor. Baluchistan is divided into

34 district and 23 had no natural gas only 11 district headquarters are supplied

with gas.

3.1.1 General Information about Village

Panjgur districts are famous for agricultur/Dates production and livestock were

taken as study area. Panjgur is the 7th largest district in Baluchistan the location

of panjgur 460km south-west from Quetta city .According to survey information

in Sordo village regarding the source of cooking fuel .wood and charcoal are the

main source of cooking about 72 to 94 percent of village household use either

wood or charcoal about 18 percent of urban household reported the use of gas/oil

(gas are compressed in cylinder) as cooking fuel. Livestock is also an important

source of livelihood in the village .that goats, sheep, and cows are the major type

of livestock in the village. The demand of an average sized family in village was

calculated using daily fuel wood consumption by a village household. 10kg fuel

wood used per day per house hold required for cooking the bio-gas requirement

for replacing fuel wood used for cooking. The amount of bio-gas required for

cooking approximately 1kg per day per household. Member of per house hold

are maximum 5 and 3 time they cook food. Village has significant agriculture
activity. Consequently there is significant agriculture/animals waste generated

and there is also support of farmers, superior feedstock for bovine (cow dung)

animals, generation of horticulture waste which can be used as feed stoke for

biogas plant. The village is rich in livestock resources that are contributing

about 40 percent of Baluchistan total livestock population. Sources of

livelihood represent the economic base of the village. Various features of

agriculture, livestock, mining and forestry are compiled in this section, while

district-wise manufacturing and fisheries data is not available. However women

help their family by getting involved in allied activities like home-base date

processing.

The climate of Panjgur is warm in summer and cool in winter. Mean monthly

temperature in the summer remains around 38°C. In the coldest month, January,

the mean monthly temperature drops below 10°C.

3.2.2 HOUSEHOLD INCOME
1. Major source of household income

The major sources of household income are agriculture .Village falls in the

tropical agro-ecological zone bearing a total potential agriculture area which is

approximately 83%.Agricultural labor consists predominantly of males.

However women help their family by getting involved in allied activities like

4. Biomass collection or buy
Harvesting or collecting firewood varies by the region and culture. Some places

have specific areas for firewood collection. Other places may integrate the

collection of firewood in the cycle of preparing a plot of land to grow food as

part of a field rotation process. Collection can be a group, family or an individual

activity. The tools and methods for harvesting firewood are diverse. Collecting

firewood is more involved than just cutting trees down, cutting them up and

stacking them to be burned in a wood stove.

biogas technology works only for people who have sufficient animal and

agricultural waste available to them to obtain a reasonable quantity of gas for

energy .73% household are agree to do the project in village. Many of them,

farm laborers or workers in the area, mentioned that although they did not own

livestock, they were willing to travel to collect animal waste from neighboring

farms.

3.2.11 THE MAIN CHALLENGE
The main challenge do we think are related to community-based biogas
plant
The main challenge, according to survey result is initial cost of plant the

majority continued to believe that the capital costs of installing a biogas plant

are too high we should come forward to take benefit of the government scheme,
