Biogas production potential of Euphorbia tirucalli L. along with cattle manure

Rajasekaran, P. / Swaminathan, K.R. / Jayapragasam, M.

AbstractThe biogas production potential of green, laticiferous, succulent stems of Euphorbia tirucalli L. was determined by batch process. The slurry, consisting of 375 g fresh cow-dung, 375 g of 1-cm bits of E. tirucalli and 750 g water produced 19·2 litres of biogas in nine weeks as compared to 16·5 litres produced by cow-dung alone. The proteolytic, cellulolytic and methanogenic organisms were higher in E. tirucalli treatment. The carbon dioxide content of the biogas was 38% from E. tirucalli plus dung and 35% from cow-dung alone.
