Abstract Nano particles have recently attracted enormous attention in the field of agriculture and bio fertilizers for the better yield of plant crops. This experiment will show the effect of iron oxide Nano particles in biogas production and analysis of effect of those nanoparticles on microbes and study of advantages of biogas slurry on plants and plant crop. Biogas is produced by the putrefactive bacteria’s which breakdown under anaerobic or aerobic conditions. And this bio digestion involves slow chemical reactions which intern result in the production of gas in the slow release manner. So the addition of iron oxide Nano particles will increase the production rate and as it will reduce CO2 to form ch4. So as increase in the methane quantity will increase the gas production. As iron oxide is biodegradable further slurry will be added to the plants and effects are studied. Slurry samples collected and studied about the microbes and its advantages. Keywords- Nano Particles, Plant Crops, Bacteria, Methane, Aerobic, Anaerobic
I. INTRODUCTION In today’s world all are having concern towards how to save energy for tomorrow. And most of the people think about the use and availability of the energy. Canada spends a lot on Gas, Propane, and oil. These fossil fuels are used continuously [1]. Because we use that continuously and availability will go down and need will go up [2]. So, in that time we have to look into other sources where it is environmentally friendly and which costs less [3]. This has been lead to the search for new energy sources [4]. In this one excellent source of energy is biogas [5]. Biogas produces when organic decaying materials produces gas that is by methane producing bacteria in Aerobic or anaerobic condition. Methane is the main component in Biogas. And it is having clean burning and colourless [6].
