| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| We will now look at other items required to construct the plant such as-

* tubes, 
* pipes and 
* valves 

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| [[Image:]]
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"|

| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| 

2. Metal pipe-
* To be connected from the center of the dome- 30 cms x 1 inch diameter

* This will be the main gas pipe 

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| [[Image:]]
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| 

3. Gas conveyer pipe of 1/2 inch diameter 

* The length of this pipe will depend upon-
* the distance between '''Biogas plant '''and the kitchen

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| [[Image:]]
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| 
4. Inlet pipe connected from Mixing tank to Digester tank- 

*Should be 6 inches diameter and approx. 5 feet of length

|-

| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| 
5. Another outlet pipe of 6 inches diameter 

* To be connected from slurry tank to the slurry collection pit 

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| [[Image:]]
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| 

If the outlet pipe is not required, alternately, construct a drain-

* Between slurry tank and the slurry collection pit as shown. 

* The depth of this slurry collection pit can be between 4 to 6 feet.

* The slurry collected in this pit can be manually poured in the fields. 

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| [[Image:]]
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| 
6. We also required Safety-valve of 1 inch

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| [[Image:]]
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| 
7. Approximately, 6 mtrs of rubber hose pipe of ½ inch diameter. 

This rubber hose pipe will be used to convey the gas-

* from the safety valve to the kitchen stove

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| [[Image:]]
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| 
8. Two Vohj clips are required to secure the pipe.

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| [[Image:]]
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| 
9. A few other items like-

* Synthetic Resin Adhesive- 250 ml

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| [[Image:]]
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| 
10. And Teflon tape

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| [[Image:]][[Image:]][[Image:]]

| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| Always use good quality '''cement''', gravel and sand.

These are really important for the durability of the '''Biogas plant.'''

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| 
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| Let’s now talk about the- 

* Area 
* Site 
* Number of days required for construction
* And best time to construct the plant

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| [[Image:]]
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| To construct the '''Biogas plant''', we need approx. 12ft X 8 ft of land, near the house.

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| [[Image:]]

| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| The site should be such that- 

# construction cost is minimized and 
# it receives ample sunlight 
# to maintain the right temperature inside the '''Biogas plant'''.

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| [[Image:]][[Image:]]
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| The selected site should also ensure easy operation and maintenance of -

# Mixing tank
# Digester tank
# Main gas control valve to switch off gas inflow and 
# Slurry tank

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| 
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| The site should also be located-

* near to the source of animal dung 
* and the toilet.

This will help to easily operate the '''plant''' and avoid wastage of raw materials.

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| <center>[[Image:]]</center>
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| The total number of days required to complete the civil work of a '''Biogas plant '''are 3 - 5 days.

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| Show full year calendar

| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| The best time of the year to construct the '''Biogas plant '''is-

* Between '''November '''and '''June'''.

Constructing '''Biogas plants''' during the rainy season is best avoided, as it becomes messy.

|-
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| 
| style="background-color:transparent;border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:0.071cm;"| This brings us to the end of this''' tutorial''' on the material required to construct a '''Biogas plant'''.

The construction part of the '''Biogas plant'''-

will be explained in next''' tutorial '''under the same series
