Re: from trash to gas biomass energy
Hi,
I assume you are doing this Science Buddies project: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... p027.shtml ?
Having never done the experiment myself, I honestly don't know. I would expect that it would take at least a few days before you start seeing results; the reaction will also depend on the temperature--do you have your bottles at room temperature, or outside?
My suggestion is to give it a week--you should probably start seeing a change by then. If not, perhaps check the system for leaks?
