    waste pollutants. These waste products can be from different sources food waste, industrial waste, agricultural waste, urban waste etc. Waste pollutants which are obtained from these sources are usually organic materials. The process of anaerobic digestion aims on breakdown of these waste materials. "It is a complex biochemical process of biologically mediated reactions, by a consortium of microorganisms to convert organic acids to methane and carbon dioxide." The process stabilizes the waste

    Anaerobic Decomposition

    Anaerobic digestion is an ideal solution to multiple problems. It could help solve the waste overflow and lack of resources to create energy. In the twenty-first century, we can’t be single-minded. We have to open our minds to a world of possibilities. Without doing so our planet will perish; if Earth is destroyed in the near future, we will perish along with it. If we consider any topic, we have to look at it from all the angles available. Though anaerobic digestion opens a whole new door to environmental
