Abstract
Today, energy demand has become one of the important problems. The rapid growth of the world population and the development of the industry have increased the need for energy. The vast majority of the world's energy needs come from natural energy sources. But the limited availability of these energy sources has led people to search for renewable energy sources. One of these renewable energy sources is biogas energy. Biogas is a gas mixture of organic substances formed by anaerobic microorganisms under anaerobic conditions at certain temperature conditions. It is flammable due to the presence of methane (CH4) gas in average 65% by volume in the biogas. Other gases outside the methane in the biogas are undesirable gases. Biogas purified from unwanted gasses is the natural gas used today. Biogas production gains importance in terms of disposal of organic materials. Black Sea Region in our country, due to the disadvantage of the geographical location and the lack of settlements has been very difficult to store the landfill. Biogas production in the Black Sea Region is gaining importance in terms of eliminating these wastes and obtaining energy. In this study, biogas potential of kitchen wastes of provinces in Black Sea Region was determined. The highest biogas potential of the Black Sea Region was found to be 51 163.20 m3 / day in Samsun province. The biogas potential of the kitchen wastes in the Black Sea Region was 296 015.18 m3/day.
Highlights
Our country is among the developing countries as it is in many countries
The vast majority of the world's energy needs come from natural energy sources
Since world energy needs increase by an average of 5% each year and a large proportion of the energy source used is natural energy sources, the world countries have searched for new energy sources [1],[2]
Summary
Our country is among the developing countries as it is in many countries. One of the basic requirements for achieving the level of developed countries is to produce our own energy. The increasing energy shortage in our country affects the development of the country negatively. The world supplies the vast majority of its energy needs from natural energy fuels and from fossil fuels. These fuels are about to run out because they are limited in nature. Since world energy needs increase by an average of 5% each year and a large proportion of the energy source used is natural energy sources, the world countries have searched for new energy sources [1],[2]
