Biogas was discovered by Sir Humphry Davy in 1810. He observed that gas was produced by the fermentation of waste in farmers' dung heaps.
A fermentation tube is used to measure the amount of gas produced during fermentation processes, such as in microbiology experiments or in food production. It allows for the monitoring of fermentation rates, gas production, and the presence of anaerobic conditions within the system.
Carbon dioxide gas accumulates in the tail portion of a fermentation tube. This gas is produced as a byproduct of the fermentation process where yeast or bacteria convert sugars into alcohol or acids. The gas bubbles out of the liquid and collects in the top of the tube.
Equipment for converting garbage into useful products includes anaerobic digesters, which break down organic waste to produce methane gas, and composting systems that transform organic materials into fertilizers. Pyrolysis and gasification units can convert solid waste into synthetic gas, which can also be used for energy production. Additionally, bioreactors can facilitate the fermentation process to create biofuels or fertilizers from organic waste. These technologies help in waste management while producing valuable byproducts.
it is called lactose fermentation and it yields lactic acid + gas .....the acid can be recognized by chemical indicator ( Bromocresol) and the gas can be recognized my trapping the gas in an inverted tube ( Durham tube ).
Alcohol and carbon dioxide are two waste products that are given off by a fermenting yeast.

A fermentation tube is used to measure the amount of gas produced during fermentation processes, such as in microbiology experiments or in food production. It allows for the monitoring of fermentation rates, gas production, and the presence of anaerobic conditions within the system.
It is a gas produced by the anaerobic digestion or fermentation of organic matter under anaerobic conditions. These materials include but are not limited to manure, sewage sludge, municipal solid waste, and biodegradable waste. Biogas consists primarily of methane and carbon dioxide.
The Smith fermentation tube is a laboratory apparatus used to measure the production of gas by microorganisms during fermentation. It typically consists of a graduated tube filled with a liquid medium and a Durham tube to capture gas bubbles produced during fermentation. The volume of gas collected can be used to estimate the extent of fermentation occurring.

A Durham tube is used in microbiology to detect gas production by microorganisms during fermentation. It is commonly used in carbohydrate fermentation tests, where gas produced by bacteria is trapped in the inverted tube if fermentation has occurred. This helps in identifying specific bacterial species based on their fermentation capabilities.
Plants release oxygen as a waste gas.
Adnams name has no meaning except that the company is involved in ale/beer brewery business which uses gas harvested from fermentation of human waste. The company is also distilling gin and vodka.
