“…Rural renewable energy systems have already been successfully certified in various countries as a complete small-scale household energy generator pattern offering the best option to supply electricity and daily energy consumption, especially to remote and undeveloped areas [64][65][66]. Meanwhile, biogas as an important renewable energy source has been increasingly taken seriously as a national coping strategy for adapting energy crisis in many countries for widely use and expansively application [67][68][69][70][71].…”

“…Sewage sludge production in Korea is continuously increasing by 5.9% per year, and an estimated 27,080 (m 3 /d) of sewage sludge will be generated in 2020 [1]. The cost of sewage sludge treatment has also increased.…”

“…The cost of treatment in 2006 was approximately 87.7 billion KRW and is predicted to be more than 191.4 billion KRW in 2020 [2]. Currently, most of the sewage sludge in Korea is landfilled (17.9%), incinerated (30.6%), or recycled (51.6%), requiring large area and high energy costs for incineration and landfilling [1,2]. Accordingly, the sewage sludge treatment problem has become a very important issue for maintaining a healthy environment as well as reducing costs [3].…”

“…Nationwide introduction will take time due to the large costs involved. Unfortunately, Korea lacks biogas-fuelled power technology, so much of the biogas is simply burned in incinerators [5].…”
