| dcterms.description | According to recent experiments in the Philippines, the anaerobic fermentation of banana skins produces more biogas.when they are dried in the sun before being cut up. It was also shown that the addition of ammonium phosphate to the digestor further increases the production of biogas. This gas, which contains 65-75% methane, can be used for heating, cooking and lighting. An added bonus is that the residues can be used to feed fish or ducks and do not stink!
