Biogas digester size

If generating methane from manure, collect dung for several days to determine average daily dung production. 

On this basis, the appropriate size biogas digester plant can be calculated.

For example, where 55 kg of dung a day is available a 8 m3 plant is warranted; where it’s only 6 kg of dung a day, a 1 m3 plant will suffice.

For a family of 8 with a few animals (say 8-10 cows), a 10m³ digester is a commonly used size in India, with 2 m³ gas storage.
