Renewable Energy, 1996, vol. 9, issue 1, 930-933

Abstract: A study on the possibility of developing biogas power generating system from layer's farming is presented. The farm consists of 300,000 heads of layer producing 9000 kg/day dry weight of the chicken dung. The gas will be used in a combined heat and power system to meet the energy requirements of the farm. The solid residue from the biogas digestor will be sold as fertiliser. It is envisaged that this study will promote wider application of the system in Malaysia.
