Design and Development of Bio-Digested Slurry Lifting Machine for Paddy Straw Based Dry Fermentation Biogas Plant
Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 5
Abstract
The Paddy Straw Biogas plant is an up growing technique for producing biogas and removing pollution caused by burning of paddy straw. A batch system Biogas plant produces biogas on an average of 3 to 4 months regularly if once filled fully with paddy straw, but later it becomes difficult to remove material from inside of the plant. The main objective of the research is to develop a lifting machine for removal of bio digested slurry from the plant operating on paddy straw as a feeding material. An underground 10 feet deep cemented walled plant, having 10 feet diameter and 3 feet opening on the top covered by a MS cover bolted with nuts, with a capacity of 16 quintal paddy straw mix and 4 quintal cow dung has been used. A system is developed on the basic of above given dimensions that are simple and easy to operate that fits into pocket of farmers. The lifting machine so developed is compared with other operational methods like, Conveyers and Hydraulic systems, and it was found that system so developed is best among all, economical and easily affordable.
