1

CHARACTERIZATION AND UTILIZATION OF BREWERY SPENT GRAIN AS A CATTLE FEED, COMPOST AND BIO-ENERGY.        A CASE STUDY OF ZEBIDAR BREWERY, WOLKITE, SOUTH ETHIOPIA

Structure of  spent grain produced from Brewery factory will be determined

The efficiencies of compost from spent grain will be studied comparing from other types of agricultural produced fertilizers.

Production of bio-energy from spent grain will be conducted as an alternative source of energy and finally the result will be used as  a primary source of date for  the university and zebidar brewery.

Agriculture, waste management & bio-energy
