'Syngas' produced from sewage is a gaseous mixture of
- $CH_4$ and $C_2H_6$
- $CO$ and $H_2$
- CO and $CH_4$
- $CS_2$ and CO
- $CS_2$ and $CH_4$
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Syngas, or synthesis gas, is a mixture of gases primarily consisting of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H₂). It is produced by the gasification of various organic materials, including sewage. This gaseous mixture can be used in various industrial processes, such as the production of methanol, ammonia, or as a fuel.
So, the correct answer is that syngas produced from sewage is a mixture of CO and H₂.
Correct Answer: (B) CO and H₂
