Description

Unnecessary temperature fluctuations due to factors such as self heating effect adversely affect performance and stability of anaerobic digesters [1]. A digester will be designed with an automatic temperature regulation mechanism that incorporates sensors, temperature regulator and cooling/heating system, which will be triggered into action upon receiving sensor instructions resulting from detection of unnecessary temperature fluctuations.
