[0002] Biogas fermentation is an important way to utilize biomass energy. Through the anaerobic metabolism of microorganisms, organic matter is converted into biogas, the main component of which is methane. Biogas is not only a clean and renewable energy source, but can also be used as a feedstock for hydrogen production.
[0003] To ensure the efficient fermentation of biogas, the temperature of the anaerobic fermentation tank needs to be maintained between 35-40°C. Traditional biogas fermentation processes typically use two heating methods to heat the anaerobic fermentation tank: electric heating and steam heating. Directly heating the biomass feedstock in the anaerobic fermentation tank through electric heating has the problem of high energy consumption and is greatly affected by the power grid. The method of generating high-temperature steam through a steam boiler and then introducing the steam into the anaerobic fermentation tank for heating requires additional fuel and has high equipment investment costs. In addition, the biogas hydrogen production process also requires additional fuel for power generation.
