Generating Electricity from biogas made from household kitchen waste. There are many utilization available for bio-gas. Commonly it can be used for heat production by direct combustion, and by using fuel cells or micro- turbines for obtaining electricity .Then it can be used as process energy for electrical equipment such as pump control system etc. .According to the available source of Biomass, the bio-fuels are broadly categorized into two .In first categorization fuels is obtained from sugar cane. Here a process called fermentation is done by using sugar, which is present in this bio-mass for the production of bio ethanol. Which is also a fuel containing alcoholic content .Which can be used directly in a fuel cell to produce electricity or serve as an additive to gasoline. Other usable forms of energies are methane gas or transportation fuel like ethanol and bio diesel.
Organic matter is an essential factor in the waste stream .For the production of bio-gas energy, by anaerobic digestion technology, which can be used to generate electricity and also used as fuels in vehicles. Generally the technology uses steam turbine or gasifies for generating electricity and direct combustion method is used to produce heat .This energy is mainly obtained from waste energy. Commonly manufacturing waste, Municipal solid waste (MSW), Land Fill Gas and it is considered as the second largest source of biomass energy. Land Fill Gas is also known as methane gas . This is released by rotting garbage, agricultural and human waste .In the U S forest by –products such as wood residues for generating electricity. Sugarcane fiber and recycled urban woods as fuel to generate electricity and supplying to nearly 60,000 homes.
In Netherlands , one electricity generating facility is done by bio mass is commercially co-gasified with coal and that facility is called 250 MWE Buggenum facility .May be in future between 2013 and 2020 biomass energy will be the largest non-hydroelectric renewable resource of electricity in U.
