Sustainable Biogas Production: Transforming Waste into Energy and Fertilizers is a comprehensive guide to managing digestate from biogas plants, with a focus on renewable energy and sustainable agriculture. Grounded in the principles of circular economy, the book explains the technological foundations and treatment technologies, supported by sustainability assessments and global case studies. The book begins with an introduction to biogas technology, providing an overview of biogas production, its historical context, evolution, and its role in sustainable waste management. It then delves into the principles of biogas production, explaining the types of organic waste suitable for biogas production, the anaerobic digestion process, and the factors influencing biogas yield. The book also discusses the efficacy and application of biogas fertilizers, presents global case studies on biogas projects, and provides an overview of the sustainability and economic viability of biogas production. It concludes with a discussion on the policy and regulatory framework for biogas production, including future outlooks on policy trends and their implications for the biogas industry. Sustainable Biogas Production: Transforming Waste into Energy and Fertilizers is an essential resource for researchers, practitioners, and policy makers working on biogas production, and will be of interest to those working more broadly across the bioenergy industry and environmental science.
