AbstractIn the past decade, the number or hogs in Taiwan has increased rapidly. Pig production brings profit to farmers, but also causes serious pollution problem. Using anaerobic fermentation to treat swine wastes can not only solve this problem but also produce biogas as an energy source. It has been estimated that 0 . 3 m3 or bi ogas was produced per day per hog when hog wastes were anaerobically treated, and the total biogas production will be 7 . 7 x 10 8 m3 /year. In this study will describe anaerobic digestion and introduce utilization in Taiwan.
