Design of biogas digester (Indian type)
This project deals with designing and fabricating a biogas digester which is focusing on Indian type. The objective of this project is to design a biogas digester that can produces biogas with specific flow rate. The digester that uses floating roof will produces constant pressure biogas. The specif...
