Abstract:
Design of Biogas Power Plant is a research campus to meet the needs of new renewable
energy and environmentally friendly. Then conducted the research with engineering scale
biogas power plant in the area of domestic Sei Temiang Batam. By utilizing livestock
waste contained in the sei temiang, Batam, so we try to build biogas power plants around
the farm area. In the process of implementation, this design, the location where digester
for decomposition can not be far from the ranch, because the source used is cow dung.
And for a mixture of water, the water used is fresh water, or use the nearest water source
around the farm area. Temperature to be one important factor for the decomposition,
because the temperature is well open to the biogas production ranged 30-55 C , therefore
the digester should be placed in an open space exposed to direct sunlight.
Prototype plant uses a mixture of cow dung and water (with a ratio of 1:1) as much as 576
liters. Volume of gas produced as much as 624 liters. This gas volume can be used to
power electricity for 35 minutes with a power output of 700 Watt
