How much biogas can be produced in Florida annually?
The broad types of wastes and biomass feedstocks that are suitable for production of biogas and limited data on production levels and biogas yields make it difficult to accurately calculate the total amount of biogas, which can be produced in the state. If the annual biogas potential from only municipal wastewater, dairy manure, poultry manure, MSW, and energy crops is estimated, a rough potential of 205.7 billion cu ft of natural gas equivalent results, which is half of the 400 billion cu ft of natural gas used for electrical generation in Florida in 2003.
