| Abstract | There is an increasing need to replace conventional energy with the renewable energy to save our natural resources and our environment. Bio-energy seems to be the most probable solution to this crisis. In this study, the biogas production potential of the mixture of water chestnut, water hyacinth and cow dung in the ratio of 1:1:2 has been discussed. The three variants were charged into a 20L portable bio-digester in the ratio of 1:1 with water. They were subjected to anaerobic digestion under a 35 day retention period and mesophilic temperature range of 26 o C-35 o C. Volume of per day biogas production was measured along with the retention time. Generation of biogas from a mixture of aquatic weeds and cow dung upholds the concept of waste to wealth in enhancing sustainability of development. The biogas generated can be utilized by producing energy from its combustion. |
