Primary sludge with a flow (Q) of 160 m³/d will be digested in a mesophilic anaerobic digester. The TS content and VS/TS ratio of the sludge is %4 and 0.75, respectively. VS destruction efficiency is %40. If the biogas is utilized in a CHP unit with an electric conversion efficiency of %38, calculate how much electricity can be generated daily? Assumptions: Density of sludge = 1000 kg/m³, cOD:VS = 1.65, Methane yield = 0.35 m³/kg CODremoved, 1 m³ methane (STP) = 10 kWh Uploading your work is mandatory for this question!
