Abstract
In view of energy supply, biogas can be seen as alternative fuel by substituting considerable amount of fossil fuel and may be utilized for heat and power production or for transport fuel production ( biogas). The aim of this research is to analyse the emission of and CO from biogas fired combustion engine for electric power production. The result indicate a significant effect of biogas composition ( ratio) and biogas flow rate on the air pollutants emission. The emission factors from this study were compared with those of U.S. EPA. Low ratio condition typically shows the lower and CO emission than higher ratio condition. At normal ratio (7:3) emission factors of and CO were 1.29 and 30.43 g/MMBtu, respectively. At low , ratio (6:4) emission factors of and CO were 0.646 and 60.86 g/MMBtu, respectively, It should be emphasized that the actual emission may vary considerably from these results due to operating conditions including torque load and engine speed.
