Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a methane fermentation method and a methane fermentation apparatus which suitably supply heat quantity consumption of a plant with energy other than hot blast generated by directly combusting biogas.SOLUTION: A methane fermentation method includes: a methane fermentation step for performing methane fermentation of fermentation raw material including litter and organic waste in a methane fermentation tank; a solid-liquid separation step for separating methane fermentation residue from digestion liquid produced in the methane fermentation step; a drying step for drying the methane fermentation residue separated in the solid-liquid separation step; and a combustion step for combusting the dried methane fermentation residue obtained by drying the fermentation residue inn the drying step. Therein, combustion discharge gas generated by combusting the dried methane fermentation residue in the combustion step or a heat medium thermally recovered from the combustion discharge gas is used as a heat source for drying the methane fermentation residue in the drying step.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】バイオガスを直接燃焼させて発生させた熱風以外のエネルギーでプラント消費熱量を好適に賄えるメタン発酵方法及びメタン発酵装置を提供すること。【解決手段】敷料及び有機性廃棄物を含む発酵原料をメタン発酵槽でメタン発酵するメタン発酵工程と、メタン発酵工程で生成した消化液からメタン発酵残渣を分離する固液分離工程と、固液分離工程で分離されたメタン発酵残渣を乾燥する乾燥工程と、乾燥工程で乾燥して得られた乾燥メタン発酵残渣を燃焼する燃焼工程と、を有するメタン発酵方法であって、燃焼工程で乾燥メタン発酵残渣を燃焼して生成した燃焼排ガス又は該燃焼排ガスから熱回収した熱媒体を、乾燥工程におけるメタン発酵残渣の乾燥用熱源として用いることを特徴とする。【選択図】図1
