Abstract

Biogas Utilization Model Using Linear Programming for Layer Farms. (Dept. P)

Highlights

  • The problem of energy shortages is aggravated by the fact that the available fossil fuels are limited and exhaustible and there is a strong need to initiate the search for non-conventional/renewable energy source, which are the abundantly available but are eco-friendly [18]

  • The application of the linear programming (LP) model provided the optimal allocation of the biogas energy for the scenario considered

  • The biogas utilization model was formulated for two end-uses to optimally energize layer farm through its wastes

Summary

Introduction

The problem of energy shortages is aggravated by the fact that the available fossil fuels are limited and exhaustible and there is a strong need to initiate the search for non-conventional/renewable energy source, which are the abundantly available but are eco-friendly [18]. [4] formulates this problem as a transportation problem, when there are multiple time periods and multiple production options, but only one item and one resource type As such energy planning problem is inherently optimization problem, where the objective is to develop a plan that meets demand at minimum cost or that fills the demand that maximizes profit. Models based on optimization methodologies are deployed to optimize energy investment decisions endogenously, meeting a specific target under some constraints They are often used by utilities or municipalities to derive their optimal investment strategies and by national energy planning to analyze the prospects of the energy system.
