The results showed that water hyacinth was a satisfactory raw material for the production of biogas using fermentation method. In batch fermentation, a gram of dried water hyacinth produced 0.3444 L biogas, of which the methane content was 62.6%. At ambient temperature (27ºC ~ 34ºC), by mixing the pre-fermented water hyacinth with effluent in a ration of 1:3 (calculated in COD), a gram of COD of the mixture produced 0.556 L biogas (of which the methane content was 62.8%) through continuous fermentation. The volume output of biogas was 1.78 L/(L. d). This study provides an effective method for treating water hyacinth planted in oxidation pond.
