BioGas Fun With Fire 

Hey kadir, without seeing it and knowing the system it’s a bit hard, but, if you are getting some gas that’s a good sign, how much are you feeding and how often, what are you feeding it? Do you have a valve somewhere between the digester and scrubbers/collection storage, see if pressure builds up, you could have a possible leak somewhere.

@@OkAtEverything-ProAtNothing Thank you for your reply, mate. The system started to produce decent combustable gas just 3 days ago and I have been celebrating it since then. I did several things differently but I still don't know what fixed the issue. As answers to your questions: I made sure that the biodigester was gas tight. It has a valve between the scrubbers and the digester and a hose for bypassing scrubbers. I made that so in order to prevent the siphon effect that might lead to pulling water from the scrubber to the biodigester tank when I remove effluent in high amounts. The bypassing hose goes directly to the gas collector. It bubbled once in 3-4 minutes then but now it's bubbling every 10-45 seconds which totals to roughly 500 liters/24 hours gas production which, if you ask me is amazing. The different things I did are: I fed the tank with lots of food scraps like 3 or 4 kilos (all plant based, no citrus,) Then I put in some metal pieces (I had read somewhere that metal in the digester could neutralize some of the h2s that could hinder the production of methane in high amounts) and the last thing was: I almost filled it up with with the last batch I fed. (it had been 80 percent or so full) It had consisted mostly of dog poop since you said in one of your videos not to put in food scraps till you get methane. But it seems like putting in scraps was the reason for the huge boost in my system. Again, thank you very much for all this awesome stuff, I would love to discuss further and compare notes. One last thing, I treated it with sodium bicarbonate to increase the pH value to the optimum level(6.5-7).

I am currently in the process of trying this, will be doing a vid on it soon.
