Implementation of environmental protecting measures to reduce toxic emissions into air, water and soil;
Increasing farm profits by using biogas for heat and power production, as well as offering to the market organic fertilizers with stable properties (absence of smell or repeated rotting);
Improvement of reliability and safety in energy supply of cattle breeding and poultry farms by using its own renewable energy sources;
Improvement of soils fertility and fodder area crops by using fertilizers, as a source of biogenic elements and humus.
THE MODERN IMPORTANCE OF BIOGAS

Mixing appears to be necessary inside the reactor for:
ensuring efficient use of the total volume of digester;
preventing separation of sludge;
preventing crust formation;
equalizing the temperature field;
equalizing the concentration of metabolites producing during fermentation.

THE PURPOSE OF STUDY:
the intensification of an anaerobic fermentation under various types of hydraulic mixing
Tasks:1. The study of an influence of
the inlet and outlet pipes location on the quality of mixing.
2. The study of an influence of the a reflecting partition on the crust formation.

-the hydrodynamic regime of the circulation of the substrate in digester can be considered laminar;
-consider a medium (the slurry) is expected homogeneous fluid with density and coefficient of effective viscosity depending on the concentration of the dispersed phase;
-the mixing is non-stationary and isothermal.

To estimate the quality of mixing the following criterion is suggested :

Conclusion:
The numerical studies and comparative analysis of the circulation of the organic substrate and the corresponding distribution of the bulk concentration of dispersed phase in tanks with different locations of inlet and outlet pipes were carry out.
It is shown that the proposed pipe location provides better mixing and the reflecting partition prevents free surface of the mixture on the crust formation.
