This dataset was granted by professor Jackson Milano, from Universidade Positivo, as part of his essay with BGS domestic biodigestors, in a ranch, for 14 months, experimenting 4 different biodigestor configurations to obtain continuous biogas production from cow manure all over the year in south of Brazil.
About the settings and tests
Settings used on his experiments:
- bio 1: biodigestor 1 straight to the ground with NO insulation
- bio 2: biodigestor 2 insulated from the ground
Timeline of tests/settings and main events:
- test 0: may21 - oct21 (bio1)
- test 1: nov21 - feb21 (bio1 + bio 2 installation)
- test 2: 22-mar-06 to 22-mai-06 (bio 1 + bio 2 + gas recirculation 20s/hour)
- test 3: 22-mai-07 to 22-jul-07 (bio 1 + bio 2 + gas recirculation 40s/hour)
File information
Column names and general information:
- Data: date
- Hora: hour
- umidAmb: air humidity (Umidade ambiente)
- tempAmb: air temperature in celsius (temperatura ambiente)
- tempSubst: efluent temperature in celsius (temperatura do substrato)
- tempSolo: ground temperature in celsius (temperatura do solo)
- umidGas: biogas humidity (umidade do biogás)
- tempGas: biogas temperature in celsius (temperatura do biogás)
- decDeBiogas: biogás production dm3 (decímetros cúbicos de biogás produzido)
- volumeTotal: daily total volume produced (volume total produzido no dia)
Other details:
- Columns with no suffix at all are for bio 1
- Columns with suffix "B2" (nov/21 onwards) refers to bio 2 (measurements from both biodigestors combined in a single file)
- 998 and 999 values are sensor errors and should be ignored/removed
