Abstract

The main issue facing progress in the modern world is the issue of energy development, which is based on access to energy resources. Therefore, alternative sources of energy were increasingly used. The main goal of the work is the economic efficiency of the processing of manure of cattle in a mesophilic biogas plant with a small methane tank. With the help of a biogas plant it is possible to process wastes from animal husbandry, agriculture, breweries with obtaining a valuable product – biogas. Biogas in its turn is an energy carrier that can be converted by means of special generators for electricity, heat or steam. To achieve this goal, the authors used methods of analysis and comparison. As a result, dependencies were obtained to determine the regime, design and energy parameters of the methane tank with the agitating device. Based on the results of the studies, the authors substantiate the main design and regime parameters of agitators of small methane tanks.
