Abstract
Animal waste accumulation, due to intensive farming, and the energy shortage prompt a reappraisal of methane fermentation of animal wastes in terms of fuel and fertiliser production as well as waste management in Japan. Initial experiments on methane fermentation of pig wastes were performed using a 200-litre digester and extension work is being conducted in several Prefecture Livestock Experiment Stations. The prospects for methane fermentation of animal wastes in Japan are discussed in this paper and potential gas production is assessed.
