Abstract
Among the renewable energy sources that are essential to face challenges such as climate change and energy depletion, biogas has become one of the attractive pathways in recent years [1]. Biogas derives from the natural degradation of organic materials by microorganism anaerobic digestion. These organic materials come from waste feedstocks considered as renewable sources since the rejection of waste is continual. On top of being a renewable substitute for fossil fuels, biogas helps in waste management. In this way, agricultural and industrial residues, municipal organic wastes, and sewage sludge are common sources of feedstock including seeds, grains, and sugars, lignocellulosic biomass like crop residues and woody crops, or algae with their high carbohydrate content [2].
