Nowadays gas used in kitchen to cook food is in demand. Biogas is an alternative source which can be used to cook food. It is also be carried out to reduce greenhouse gas emission by replacing the fossil fuels to renewable sources, such as biogas. Biogas typically refers to an odourless gas produced by anaerobic digestion of biomass using microorganisms. It has an approximate composition of 50 - 70% methane, 25 - 50% carbon dioxide, nitrogen 0 - 5%, hydrogen 0 - 1% and some other gases depending on the nature of the biomass. It is an environmental friendly process utilizing the increasing amounts of organic waste produced worldwide. The performance of the anaerobic digestion process is highly dependent on the characteristics of feedstocks well as on the activity of the microorganisms involved in different degradation process. The digestion of municipal sewage sludge (MSS) occurs in three basic steps. During a 30 day digestion period, 80 - 85% of the biogas is produced in the first 15 - 20 days. Higher yields are observed within temperature range of 30 - 60oC and pH range from 5.5 - 8.5. The Municipal Waste contains low level of nitrogen and carbon to nitrogen (C/N) ratios of around 40 - 70. The optimum C/N ratio for the anaerobic digestion should be between 25 & 35.
