Step-by-step explanation:

Biogas is a type of biofuel that is naturally produced from the decomposition of organic waste.

Biomass is plant or animal material used for energy production, or in various industrial processes as raw substance for a range of products.

A Biodigester simply means a tank which digests organic material biologically. In this sense, the FilterPod is a biodigester. However, many people think of a biodigester as a tank which digests, anaerobically, without air, organic material and produces methane gas for cooking, lighting and heating ect.

Answer:

Biogas is a type of biofuel that is naturally produced from the decomposition of organic waste. When organic matter, such as food scraps and animal waste, break down in an anaerobic environment (an environment absent of oxygen) they release a blend of gases, primarily methane and carbon dioxide.

Step-by-step explanation:

Biomass is renewable organic material that comes from plants and animals. ... Biomass contains stored chemical energy from the sun. Plants produce biomass through photosynthesis. Biomass can be burned directly for heat or converted to renewable liquid and gaseous fuels through various processes.biodigester is like a mechanical stomach. It is fed with organic material, which is broken down (decomposed) by micro-organisms (bacteria) is an oxygen-free (anaerobic) environment to produce a renewable energy called biogas (methane and carbon dioxide) and other material that is mainly used as fertilizer.
