Abstract

This work presents the automation of an anaerobic reactor used for the production of biogas from residual sludge in the palm oil extraction process (POME). The automation process is performed using embedded systems such as the Arduino DUE board. The variables measured in this process are temperature, PH and agitation; the most critical parameters to control that significantly affect biogas production and biogas quality. To control process variables, sensors were used to determine the amount of methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S). For data acquisition, USB communication was used between the embedded card and the PC, using Visual Basic.NET, a system for data acquisition, storage and visualization of the POME biodigestion process variables, measuring the biogas produced in real time and visualizing and storing the information for later statistical analysis.
