Production of biogas from waste animal fats
Abstract
The research results concerning biogas production from waste animal lard are presented. During preparation of various fried dishes with the use of lard or vegetable fats, modification of fats composition is observed. These undergo essential chemical transformations into more or less harmful products. Synthesized toxic substances dissolved in fats make, that these fats are no longer suitable for consumption or further use, thus should be safely finally utilized. Waste fats after the production of fried potatoes, doughnuts, fried meat, etc. are, however, regarded as attractive raw materials for biogas production. Laboratory analysis of anaerobic fermentation process of waste animal lard suggests, that its energetic utilization can be promising source of renewable energy. From 1 Mg of waste lard it is possible to produce in anaerobic fermentation ca. 620–720 m3 of good quality biogas, with maximum production rate varying from 1.067 to 1.082 dm3/kg d.m./h.References
