Abstract
With Increasing Energy Demand in the World and to keep Environment Friendly, biogas technology
has attained a notable position for the future scope. This paper tells about a comprehension review on
anaerobic digestion of cow dung and food waste with Water hyacinths to enhance biogas productions.
Water hyacinths are treated as waste in rivers, ponds, but they have high potential in biogas
production. Food wastes are having rich organic nutritive value and high calorific value. By anaerobic
digestion water hyacinths are mixed with cow dung which acts as the inoculums for the digester.
Kitchen waste is added as the daily feed substrate to the digester. The digested slurry from the digester
is rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium content, so they can be used as fertilizers and the biogas
obtained is used for alternate for LPG.
Keywords:
Anaerobic Digestion (AD), kitchen waste (KW), water hyacinths (WH), Hydraulic retention time (HRT).
