Abstract

Data collection in laboratory experiments through automation can help with the operation and optimization of the process, and as a result, overcome any potential failures in the system, ensuring safety and complete control. In this sense, this work aimed to evaluate the automatic system developed for data collection during the anaerobic digestion process. Anaerobic digesters were used, supplied with bovine waste (BW), sewage sludge (SS), and mineral water (MW) under anaerobic digestion process in the proportions of 100:0 BW:SS, 0:100 BW:SS, 50:50 BW:SS, and 50:50 BW:MW. For monitoring the biogas concentration and temperature, the Biogas Monitoring Module (BMM) and Parameter Monitoring Module (PMM) were developed, which use the MQ-4 and DHT11 sensors, respectively. The results obtained with BMM and PMM were compared to those obtained by the use of Alfakit® and gas chromatography. It was concluded that BMM and PMM were effective in monitoring temperature and methane, but there is a need for adjustments in the applied methodology
