Abstract :
Bangladesh is a developing country which is facing acute electricity shortage and is one of the challenging issues to develop. Shortage of electric power generation causes a significant amount of load shedding. But there is a huge opportunity to backup the load shedding using human and solid waste to generate biogas. This paper presents a design and analysis of biogas plant using human and solid waste for load shedding backup. And the cost analysis tells that the system is economically feasible for our country.
