The aim of the report is to study the potential to produce C2 or higher gases from biological process. In the existing technology, anaerobic digestion produces mainly 55-80% methane (CH4) and 20-45% carbon dioxide (CO2). The thermal efficiency of the methane is 37 kJm-3 where the thermal efficiency...
