Farm Biogas project (Part 3) Biogas filter/ toplink and lumber price trouble
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 тра 2024
- The next step has been taken with our farm biogas project.
We simply built a filter to clean the gas.
Made of material that is easy to obtain.
There are always a lot of things to do on a farm besides caring for the animals and our projects, our machines also have to be serviced and sometimes parts have to be replaced and for cost reasons we sometimes have to go other ways.
When the prices are in no relation to reality

You continue to show your genius and skills as a craftsman and farmer. I so do appreciate the Dutch engineering. Verner would be proud.💛👍👍🍻
A parts list and schematic drawing listed in sequence of appearance in the videos would be great too. This video is so important to the survival of all those watching in this era of what I can only describe as the apocalypse; and I'm not even religious. Maybe after it all ends (if ever) I'll be more of a spiritual person than I currently am.
Well done on creating this project, putting it together, and video-ing how you did it for all of us to follow. Well done. Graham from Queensland (Wide Bay region) Australia.
I've screenshot every stage as a guide for myself. Now to hunt down materials and start on this biogas project myself.

More info for you Graham I'm in nsw looking for off grid solutions.
Cheers Rodney
Fabulous build, really looking forward to the next video! thanks,
VERY NICE biogas set-up. I like it very much.
Ich bin echt begeistert und habe schon meinen Mann gefragt, ob er mir sowas bauen kann! 💖💪
This is a survival project (as is everything we're doing here on our recently purchased prepper farm. It was set up by previous owners, so we're ahead in terms of solar power, water (rain/river), orchards ).
Again thanks, and well done from those watching in this era of what I can only describe as the apocalypse; and I'm not even religious. Maybe after it all ends (if ever) I'll be more of a spiritual person than I currently am.

Definitely taught me a lot in your videos really good ideas
Love these 3 videos (Biogas Project)
I have some questions to ask. I’ll post each separately and numbered as there’s a character
limit on comments. I'm sure others will be hoping to have these queries followed up. Hope you can follow-up with Biogas Project 4 to address. Great project. Thankyou, you've helped thousands survive if they follow through and build.

The idea is a six-stage scrub system;
1) H2O to remove CO2
2) Silica Gel to remove H2O
3) Steel Wool to remove H2S
4) NaOH solution to remove Sulfer (from the wool) and CO2
5) Silica Gel to remove H20 (from #4)
6) Activated Carbon to remove final trace CO2 & H2S
These steps should increase CH4 concentration from 43% to 55% (15% power increase).
Dzień dobry, bardzo rozbudowana technologia filtracji, śledzę temat biogazu od jakiego czasu i zazwyczaj proponują
H2O, Steel Wool i węgiel aktywny. (In Polish)
Hi Mercer Mouth. Good technical advice. But there some items on your list that I've never seen. Silica gel and Naoh, I have no idea what it is
@@winterca Naturally, a 'lil Google search will help with definitions and applications.
Silica Gel is often found in places to absorb moisture; new clothes, beef jerky, etc...
NaOH is Sodium Hydroxide (used in drain cleaners) which will adjust the pH of a solution.
Thanks for this creative ideas, please what else can i use to remove H2O in place of silica gel?
@@onoworemuriomen8163 - Kitty Litter may remove some moisture.
Bentonite would also remove H2O but needs to be replaced fairly often...
Are you really can find a lot of projects and things you have going on a really good job
Lovely. Very creative.
the head does not let the hands get bored !!!! keep it up.
We will
This is such a cool project. As a fellow resident of ns , I'd love to have the opportunity to see this biogas setup sometime🙂❤️
Especially for newbies like me, and I'm pretty handy with tools and making stuff. That's the easy bit. But knowing why it is or isn't working will be the test.
I know a guy that actually took the jack on that trailer like you showed that he put it on the side of the actual Steel right there going to the front on the angle and it flips up out of the way
That biodigester looks so neatly put together, it's the best I've seen so far, great job
Thank you very much
@@dsfarmns2823 can you share how you build it sir?

He's German or Austrian and thats just how they are. My dad was the same.
Muito boa ideia...
Nicely done with the filter setup!
I use the same equipment but slightly different redesign with my saltwater aquariums. Your fuel production area is also very clean looking also.
I haven't heard or read any comments from those of you who produce biogas and use any various digester bags. My concern and questions are the durability, life cycle, and UV exposures to these bags prior to compressing the gas into a steel tanks.
You’ve definitely developed an eye for detail you cut your wood 2x4 too the center so it wedges good
How often do the filters need to be changed ??
17:07 :D! hahah, you've got a goldmine in lumber
Okay there's a Diy Sawmill video floating around you need to see power it with biogas!!!
1. Can you supply a video explaining how it works pls? I'm curious how the liquid fertiliser is pushed up the tube inside the digester tank, the 2" pipe which has a hole cut through it. ??
Can you supply a video showing it in action, the level inside the digester, how much kitchen waste, grass, leaves to add daily/weekly? How much fertiliser liquid waste produced weekly? How much gas produced daily/weekly? How much water added with each addition of kitchen waste, clippings, leaves etc? Can you show how you transfer the gas from bladder to tank, or direct to kitchen stove or HWS or gas heater...pls? I know it's a lot to ask, but this will give us an idea of what it should be doing once built, and how to operate it.
Hello . Well done for the build. Please tell me what to put in the three water filters. what should I put in each one? thanks a lot for your time
1. steelwool, 2. wood pellets or cat litter and 3. regular water
Super 😀💪🏽
🙋♂I great videos ! But I got a question! The filter housings. The link sent me to 3/8 inch inlet and outlet filter housing. It doesn't look right to me , looks like you used a bigger diameter than that for the inlet and outlet of filter, the pvc connecting them looked 1/2 at least.. mind letting me know ? I'd greatly appreciate it. It will save me some time swearing at the hardware store😅
I’ve use those pool filters for making hydrogen but you’re better off using the methane gas idea when your bio digester
Is this dimension of digester can work 6houres bay day please?
Does it really matter to use the white tape or the yellow tape for gas are they just made the same but they just make them color-coded
Richtig gut gemacht.
vielen Dank
Am having a project am working at to build a Bio gas plant for my brother to his hotel
tidy work
thank you
Good day Sir I would like to know can I put my gas freeze on this system and do I need a one way valve from your gas tank to your appliances.
I cant tell you what you should do, I can only tell you what I would do. A gas freezer works with propane comes in bottels with presure not high pressure but with pressure. Depense how you build your system there is mostly no or verry low pressure => the nozzel at the freezer is to small I would make the hole in the nozzel bigger to get the same flame size than with propane. Be always carefull biogas is a burnable gas and can explode. And better one more valve to shut off then one not enought.
Great series, thanks for uploading without monetarization! You are from Germany, correct?
I didn't see what you put in the filters.
Also, how are you stopping the gas from escaping the inlet pipe and the excess water pipe?
This design is the best one I've seen on UA-cam.
The first filterhousing is filled 3/4 filled with water the second is filled full with wood pellets and the third is filled with steelwoll. The white pvc pipe fits hard into the filterhousing head and sealed perfect without glue or an o-ring so the inlet is at the lowest point of the filterhousing and the gas have to go al the way to the outlet up in the filterhousing.
by using this filterhousing the gas flow is against the folw that the arrow shows on the housing.
@@dsfarmns2823 that's awesome.
I sent you an email. I'm hoping to be able to compress the gas into a propane tank too. It's in the email.
It is not be a problem to compress the gas with a air compressor into a propane tank by connecting the biogas tank to the airfilter inlet from the compressor the only thing is you should remove the valve of the propanetank and fill the tank with water first than drain it (to make sure there is no more propane in the tank and than put the valve back on the tank) you dont want side effects from the propane in your biogas. And I always make sure the is a little biogas leftover in the propanetank never empty the tanks complete. And if i use used propane tanks after I flushed them i suck out the air with the compressor first to get a vacuum in the tank bevor i fill them with biogas to have always the same quality of biogas in the tanks with out having a biogas / air mix and the side effects of it ( so the biogas quality is higher and the generator starts better) if you dont do that you have at +- 100psi one part air and 5 parts biogas in the tank and no 100% biogas that comes out of the digester.
and about your other question at your e-mail the fill level from the material and the liquide in the digester seals the digester automaticly so you dont have to seal them inlet and outlet extra. the only thing i would do i would put a lid on the inlet funel to get rid of the smell if you dont like it but only lose not tight you dont want create unwanted pressure in a part of the system.
Thank so much. Keep making awesome videos! I'm sharing them.
Hlo in that 3 scrubber which substance used ?? Reply me
OK I see three filters housing with nothing in them now from other videos I know one is water another is steel wool what's the 3rd one for
Cat litter or wood pellets
2. The in-series filters are not filled with filtering materials. We need to know what to use pls?
Hi Graham ,Where just building one currently hope this helps .The first filter is a bubbler through water to remove co2 ,change water perodically has it will have turned into a carbonic acid .2 stage is to remove moisture in the gas catlitter or some other absorbant .3 rd stage is the use of wire wool to remove the hydrogen sulphide this makes the methane gas safer with less impurities.
Is there a part 4 Showing how everything works and explaining how the filters work! So many unanswered Questions
Videolink Part 4
ua-cam.com/video/a8PIyj8plhk/v-deo.html
can you please shed more information on the type of storage bladder you have or where you got it?
I got it that time from princessauto.ca but I am not sure if it is still aviable
Hello from South Africa. I just love your videos. If I may give you advice, there is a much easier way to apply the silicone tape. Regards
Silicone tape ? Did you mean teflon tape ?
@@dsfarmns2823 sorry, yes the teflon tape.
What use in 3 filters for clinging the gas please tell me
1. steelwool, 2. wood pellets or cat litter and 3. regular water
Thank god the 'engineer' passed it after inspection, always nerve wracking when they turn up on site :-P Great work and a great setup. Would be great to see if the gas could be used to power a small generator for use as a stop-gap backup or power system top-up for low sun/wind spells.
I work on that but it needs time to get all the parts togeter where we live, the next biogas video is coming soon.
@@dsfarmns2823 I completely understand, thank you for taking the time to put these online as I know how busy farm life can be. Your videos are so good I have subscribed
was that the engineer or the waste material supply agent.
Knipex wrench....👍👍👍
Hi, how are you but I can't say I am so successful as you. I have been trying out to make biodigester gas with no luck. I have one question What is the amount of food per day that should be fed to the digestor per day? If it's a 55 gallon tank Thank you, and I will wait for the response
its depense what kind of food you have , 5 kg at least. whats the problem? is it not starting to generate biogas ?
Hello!
Please the biogas can be transfer to a container for use
with a regular compresser you can press gas in propane tanks
I am concerned person to the climate change and want to do my part in a mechanisms of reducing deforestation . even if , I am beginner of Biogas technology , It is feasible to introduce it for my society w/c is not familiar so far . Every thing is understandable in this vidio except in identifying the chemicals cpds being used in z filtration of methane gas . many thanks .
Do you compress the biogas too?
Not now. We work on a setup for this and on a Video.
You never showed the filters filled up with filtering medium. Please share that.
What are you filtering out? What is in the filters?
Desulfurization filter: , steel wool) water removes other contaminants and wood pellets dry the gas
Where did you get the bag to store the bio gas?
The bag is from princessauto.ca here is the link hope that helps www.princessauto.com/en/300-gallon-portable-water-bladder/product/PA0008906463
Bummer, looks like that link is dead. Would you happen to know the manufacturer of the item?
What are you using as filter materials and why those materials ?
Water, wood pellets and steel wool, because you can get it mostly every where for cheap and it works good so far
Can we use rice instead of cat citter for moisture absorption
You may use epsom salt (sold in stores as magnesium sulphate heptahydrate) that is7 water molecules attached. Heating in the oven for 2 hours at 450 degrees Fahrenheit will make it loose those 7 water molecules. Which makes it relatively easy to make powerful desiccant, and to regenerate it latter
@@kreynolds1123 ty
Sir very good work ..,... But i have a question.... Kindly guide me ...... What do you use in the filters to purify the gas ...... And how long the stuff you put in the filters last ....?????plz guide me ....
1.Water 2. Wood pellets ( Cat litter) 3. Steel wool. It s all depense ho much gas you produce. You can see it if you look closer to the filters, the water turns the color , the pellet swell and turn back to saw dust and the steelwool rost and fall together.
For the amount of money I spent on those 2 by 2 I think I should just put them up in the container and keep them safe !!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Update in this project please 😁
In the picture it shows things in the filter casings but you don't talk about what you put in there to "filter" your biogas. Can you share about that???
steelwholl wood pellets or cat litter and water
@@dsfarmns2823 So either Steel wool and wood pellets OR cat litter and water? Can you be more specific with the amounts and how often to replace with new materials in your filters? Can you tell me what are the ingredients in the cat litter? Thank you so much!
no... steelwool and wood pellets or cat litter and water

How far away is part 4
Really good system👍👍
in a coupl weeks. There are a lot of important things to do on the farm bevor the winter is here. But I promise it will be interesting.
@@dsfarmns2823 Fantastic. I wondered how you fit it all in. I grew up on a nursery, a large plant farm. It's always busy. Days never long enough. Thanks for making time to show all this to the rest of us.
How many pigs are required to supply pig waste to this system to make it work supplying biogas daily to the kitchen?
it is always depense how many gas you need per day
Please what is the product names did you puted in each jar
1. steelwool, 2. wood pellets or cat litter and 3. regular water
@@dsfarmns2823 Sr. What the CAT LITTER is exacly? Can't I replace it by an other produtc?
Have you started gas production yet?
Yes we do but now it is getting colder and I have to change the setup a little the next biogas video is coming soon
R50 insulation and a small amount of heat underneath should keep you in operation
Clogs !
I'm in sri lanka.we have big crisis in here. Can you get me to your country i like to join your farm as a helper.i can work hard.i don't want a big salary.i only want small salary, accommodation and meals.can you?
Why not you put it outside
We have -20 degrese Celsius in the winter

You're putting on your Teflon aspects you're supposed to roll that plastic ring in the opposite direction so it pulls a tight on the threads you actually contact the plastic ring of the tape to the threads and roll it in reverse of the way you would normally pull tape second you're putting too much on and you should have used pipe dope on top of that tape if you're working with gas
Think about maybe the optic of the camera shows it wrong or mirrored (sometimes the are videos with letters you need to read right to left not left to right ) but I am sure I do it the right thats what I learnd over 30 years ago but i should check you are right.
I mean come on guy nobody pulls out Teflon tape like that and just wod's get across the threads overlapping like that you're just creating a leak
it doesn't leak, it works tis way, what more do I want?
give me the time cod wher you thing the teflon is put on the wrong way I checked but cant find it
