For biogas to be produce, you need a carbon to nitrogen ratio of about 30. This means that carbon is 30 times the quantity of nitrogen. To achieve this ratio, you have to mix chicken manure with organic matters that has high carbon content. You mix them in certain ratio once you know their C/N ratio.
This is a very important topic, especially for poultry farmers.
From some literature I read, adding kitchen waste or cattle dung improves the usage of poultry litter to generate biogas.
This has the potential to improving relationship between the farmer and his/her community. Profit would also improve.
Is there anyone that has achieved in respect of this renewable energy?
