Projeto de biodigestor para geração de bioenergia em sistema de produção de suínos: um estudo de caso da região de Icolo e Bengo - Angola

Abstract

The technology of anaerobic digestion has been proven as one of the most effective in the treatment of pig slurry, In Angola this technology is growing in a shy, so faculties a greater pollution of rivers, soil and atmospheric air for lack of adequate treatment of biomass produced by thousands of pigs in this country. The uses of biogas as an energy source for the operation of the equipment still meets the technological, and for lack of information, organization and often support technological and governmental institutions or NGOs. This study evaluated the technical feasibility, for implementation of the Biodigestors in Icolo-Bengo in Angola. We studied the implementation of Biodigestors, Indian Model, at Menga farm as well as potentially generating power existing in the production of biogas. The anaerobic treatment of swine waste as a renewable source of energy, within the concept of sustainable development and rationalization of production without aggression to the Environment are also referred to showing that this technology may be appropriate as conservation and energy efficiency electricity that is not much in this country. The use of anaerobic digestion in this case is possible and desirable, as it contributes to preservation of the environment, makes possible the modern systems of containment and reduces the cost of production as well as help in the production of electricity and fertilizers. An integrated system was proposed and will be implemented at the Menga farm, as one of the pioneer projects in Angola.
