Conversion of CO2 Emmissions to Biomethane via Immobilized Bioreactors
Project no. 1096 · Status: Kapanmış · 2017
Summary
The level of CO2 in the atmosphere and climate change constitute a significant concern worldwide. Therefore, governments and scientists has been focused on scientific and technologic methods for physical, chemical and biological capture, storage and / or conversion of CO2 into useful products to reduce CO2 level in the atmosphere. In this study, to create a solution for CO2 high level, it was aimed to capture CO2 sourced by industry and to convert biomethane which is a renewable energy. In this context, simulated gases and real stack gases were performed. In this context, four differents materials; (MBBR, glass bead, pumice and glass roller) were used in the immobilized bioreactors. Biomethane in effluent were 80%, 75%, 65 ve 78% respectively. The results obtained in this study can provide a sustainable and environmental model with carrying a great potential of both to utilize waste gas CO2 and to convert it to renewable energy for all industries in our country.
