Making an energy with renewable system and safe for the future of the earth
In recent years the term bio gas is already familiar in the ears of our community. There have been many breakthroughs of appropriate technologies that were created either among engineers, academics and the general public to use one of these renewable energy alternatives. Even some rural communities in several provinces, especially cattle ranchers have been using this environmentally friendly technology as the fulfillment of the needs of fuel daily. In other words, they have managed to achieve self-energy by no longer using kerosene for cooking, even for lighting. Although it has been a lot of information circulating on Bio gas and can be easily accessed through a variety of media, but I was still trying to make this writing and posting on this article as an answer from one of the suggestions senior fellow. Bio gas is one of the types of bio fuels, fuels derived from living things and are renewable. Different from fuel oil and coal, although the initial process of manufacture is also of living creatures, but can not be updated because of the formation of two fuels took millions of years. Bio fuel itself is an example of biomass. As the name implies, Bio gas is a gaseous fuel. At least, there are two kinds of Bio gas is known today, namely Bio gas (also often called marsh gas) and Biosyngas. The fundamental difference of the two ingredients above is the weave. Bio gas is produced from the fermentation process of organic materials with the aid of anaerobic bacteria in the environment without free oxygen. Bio gas energy is dominated by methane (CH4) 60% -70%, 40% -30% of carbon dioxide and other gases in smaller quantities. While Biosyngas (or more often abbreviated as syngas or Producer Gas) is the product between (intermediate), created through a process of gasification at high temperatures thermokimia where carbon-rich materials such as coal, petroleum, natural gas or biomass converted into carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (O2). If the raw materials of coal, petroleum and natural gas, so-called syngas, whereas if the biomass raw material is called Biosyngas. Biosyngas can be used directly to fuel or as raw material for other chemical processes. In principle, the making of Bio gas is very simple, just by entering the substrate (cattle manure) into the anaerobic digester. In a certain time Biogas will be formed which can then be used as an energy source, eg for gas or electric stove. Use of bio digester can help the development of agricultural systems by recycling manure to produce biogas and a byproduct obtained (by-product) in the form of organic fertilizer. In addition, with the use bio digester to reduce emissions of methane (CH4) is produced on decomposition of organic material produced from agricultural and livestock sector, since cow manure is not allowed to decompose in the open but fermented into bio-gas energy.

As we know, the gases include the greenhouse gas methane (greenhouse gas), along with CO2 greenhouse effect causing global warming phenomenon. Reducing methane locally this can play a positive role in global problem solving efforts. The potential for cow dung used as raw Bio gas production is actually quite large, but not all breeders use it. Even during this has created problems of pollution and environmental health. Generally, the farmers dispose of cow manure into rivers or directly sell them to collectors with very cheap price. And of course cow dung can be obtained by products (byproduct) is quite a lot. As an example of liquid organic fertilizer derived from urine containing auxin is high enough so that both the source material for fertilizer to grow. Cows blood serum from places slaughterhouses could be used as a source of nutrients for plants, other than that of cow innards of waste generated can also activators as an alternative source ofdecomposed. When compared with other bio fuels, Bio gas calorific value is very high, namely of 15,000 KJ / kg when compared with charcoal (7,000 KJ / Kg), wood (2,400 KJ / Kg) and even kerosene (8,000 KJ / Kg). Therefore, applications can be developed using biogas for cooking and lighting (generating electricity).
