Abstract
Food waste is categorized under household waste which were produce in large amount every day and it can be a good potential to generate biogas production via anaerobic digestion. In this research, the characteristics of co-digestion process are measured to determine the biogas production between food waste and cow dung. The food waste is co-digest with two different type of cow dung are collected depends on their food consuming (grass:bran); 100% grass and 95% grass : 5% bran. The digester is maintained at 35°C of temperature for mesophilic condition. pH values and C/N ratio are noted until 35 days. The biogas production is analysed by using biogas analyzer. The highest biogas production in this study is 67.2% which are co-digest between food waste and cow dung (100%) compared cow dung (95%) is 53.9% on day 26. This shows that the cow dung (100%) produces more biogas than cow dung (95%). Anaerobic digestion process will best suits for biogas production and for the best utilization of food waste.
