Hi all!

Just some addotions to sugar and gas yields:

In theory (thanks to Dr David Fulford) 1 kg of sugar gives 865 litres
of biogas, so Dr Karves figures are ballpark.

The yield per kg may differ (in small amounts) what sugar (Glucose/Saccharose/...) is used. But the gas yield differs a lot what kind of normation is used. Under German standard gas conditions used in the field of biogas ( 273.15K = 0°C; 1013.25 mbar, dry gas) sugar as "Glucose" would result in 747 L/kg. You can easily check and recalculate this for "norm gas conditions" in your country. Often 20°C is used instead of 0°C, so the gas yield would be higher. You can have a look at the buswell formula: http://www.schlattmann.de/biogas/3-substrate/biogas3-buswell.php and the given table below. So often people have different figures but are talking about the same thing.

Kind regards
Markus Schlattmann
