Biogas which consists of methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) could explode when diluted to a certain degree with air in the presence of ignition source. The maximum explosion overpressure (Pmax), the maximum rate of pressure rise (dP/dt)max, flammability limits, and deflagration index are the...
