Description

The use of energy that is both clean and renewable is drawing more and more attention as a means of meeting the demands of expanding economies while also taking into account the consequences for the environment. Utilizing biogas is one way to meet these growing demands. Waste materials are used in this; which are deposited daily by agriculture, sewage, and households to generate energy that can be used for transportation, heating, electricity, and other necessities of daily life. Nano-structured ceramic membranes could be used in this paper to transform biogas into a high-value fuel that can be used for a variety of applications. The use of membranes has many advantages, including low operating costs, high efficiency, and no need for the gas to change its phase. Different membranes with varying pore sizes were used in experiments to determine which would be most suitable for use in terms of product gas yield and permeability. In comparison to carbon dioxide, the 16-nm membrane had the highest methane exit
