Özet:

Tokat Province has intensive livestock facilities. The present study was conducted to determine biogas production potential from livestock wastes and to assess energy production opportunities and possible resultant contributions to be made to country economy. The target is to create high-yield, easily constructed and feasible biogas facilities with low investment, operation and maintenance costs. Initially the number of livestock facilities and their waste potentials were determined and energy production potential from these wastes was assessed. Current calculations and assessments revealed that Tokat Province has biogas production potential of 301 434 m3/day with an electrical energy equivalent of 502 390 kWh/day. Since livestock facilities are common in the region and it is easy to collect livestock waste, livestock wastes among the animal wastes were taken into consideration and pilot central biogas facilities were designed for 250 animal capacities. Floor plans, cross-sections and side wives were all drawn in AutoCAD and dimensioning, energy analyses and costing were performed for those facilities. ArcMAP software was used in analyses to determine the locations, numbers and capacities of biogas facilities based on animal intensities and distances between rural settlements
