Abstract :
Energy is one of the major concerns for the increasing future of any nation and electricity is the most useful form of energy. Bangladesh enjoys an electricity distribution of 42% only. Bangladesh has a great potential for biogas production in respect of the availability of raw materials and climatic conditions and it is well substitute of natural gas. It is a great opportunity to use biogas as fuel of generator to generate electricity. This paper describes a design and detail analysis of a biogas based power plant for commercial usage. The cost analysis reveals that the proposed design is cost effective for Bangladesh.
