Bio Gas Plant Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-CELE-13928
This experimental Biogas Plant is a sophisticated,
laboratory-scale system designed to demonstrate and investigate the complete
process of anaerobic degradation and biogas generation. Its two-stage
configuration and integrated PLC control allow for comprehensive
study of the parameters influencing biogas yield and quality.
The plant simulates an industrial biogas process using a
two-stage (dual stage) method for optimized control over the degradation
phases. It supports both continuous and discontinuous (batch) operation
modes.

Stage 1 |
Stirred Tank Reactor 1 |
Hydrolysis and Acidification
(Conversion of long-chain organic substances into short-chain organic
substances). |
Temperature and pH value are
individually controlled. |
Approx. 20L |
|
Stage 2 |
Stirred Tank Reactor 2 |
Methane Formation (Last step of anaerobic
degradation; generation of biogas, primarily methane and carbon dioxide). |
Temperature and pH value are
individually controlled. |

- Substrate
Supply: A separate supply unit includes a 25L substrate tank
with a stirring machine (maximum 200 revolutions per minute) and peristaltic
feed pumps (maximum 25 L per hour flow rate).
- Digestate
Collection: A 25L digestate tank collects the final
product.
- pH
Regulation: Two metering pumps (maximum 2.1 L per
hour each) are provided for precise addition of acid and caustic to
control the pH in both reactors.
- Temperature
Control: A dedicated heating water circuit (with a tank,
heater, temperature controller, and pump - maximum 480 L per hour
flow rate) manages the thermal environment of the reactors.
Instrumentation and Data Analysis
The plant is fully instrumented for extensive biogas and process
analysis, with a central control system for operation and data logging.
Control and Monitoring
- System
Control: Controlled by a PLC (Programmable Logic
Controller).
- Operation: Via a
touch screen interface.
- Data
Acquisition: Measured values are transmitted to a PC via USB
(Optional software for Windows 7, 8.1, 10).
