What is biogas
Biogas is a renewable energy source obtained from the fermentation of organic waste, such as agricultural residues, food waste and sewage sludge. This process occurs under controlled conditions, such as in biodigesters, where microorganisms decompose organic matter without the presence of oxygen.
Biogas is considered a low environmental impact fuel because during its combustion it releases fewer greenhouse gases than traditional fossil fuels such as oil and coal.
