Bio Gas Bottling Plant

Biogas, obtained from the anaerobic decomposition of organic waste like cattle dung, agriculture residue, municipal solid waste, sugarcane press mud, sewage treatment plant, and other such sources of biomass, is rich in energy. The primary constituents of biogas are methane (60%), carbon dioxide (40%), and particles of hydrogen sulfide. It is possible to use raw biogas as fuel directly or purify and upgrade the gas by eliminating H2S (Hydrogen Sulfide) and CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) while increasing the presence of methane to obtain CBG (Compresses Biogas). CBG, with over 90% methane content, is similar to CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) in terms of energy potential and composition. Biogas Purification Using biogas as renewable natural gas highly depends on the methane concentration of the gas. Thus, purifying raw biogas in a biogas bottling plant is important to eliminate the corrosive impact of hydrogen sulfide and increase the energy per unit volume of CBG. Overall, the process of purificati

 The winters have always been tough for Delhi as the air quality slumps with season getting cold. Stubble burning in the neighboring states adds to their woes and the AQI tells you the story. The issue has long been debated as the deteriorating air quality has always been a health and environmental hazard; however, lately not surprisingly it has snowballed into a political issue as well. After Delhi, Aam Aadmi Party formed the government in Punjab as well and that has set new political positioning as far as the issue is concerned. Amidst all of this, the Punjab government's strategy to counter air pollution by curbing stubble burning showed some light as they commissioned Asia’s largest compressed biogas plant in Bhutan Kalal village, Sangrur this April. The plant spread over 20 acres of land is expected to be put to test this winter. The plant came into existence to convert a huge volume of paddy straw into renewable energy. Compressed biogas plant manufacturers say that the plan

India has seen a surge in CBG plants in recent years and that can be attributed to the increasing awareness across the globe. As we all know that India is one of the fastest growing economies in the world and its energy consumption is also increasing rapidly. India is looking to increase its dependence on sustainable energy options. India imports about 77 percent of its crude oil requirements and about 50 percent of its natural gas requirements. Besides, paddy stubble burning has also been a huge challenge for the Indian government.  Many countries have used innovative methods to use paddy stubble as raw material which not only helps overcome energy limitations, but also curbs pollution by a significant margin. An Indian company is looking to set up a CBG plant in Bhutal Kalan village in Punjab which will procure paddy stubble from a 15 km radius of the plant. This paddy stubble will be used as raw material for the production of compressed biogas.  North Indian farmers tend to burn pa

  India has always been a key market for the entire world since ages and this is especially true when it comes to biogas production. The country will attract investments of Rs. 2 trillion for the setup of more than 5000 compressed biogas plants in India , said petroleum minister, Dharmendra Pradhan later last year. Pradhan was addressing an event post signing an MOU for setting up 900 compressed biogas plants across the country. These CBG plants are part of the visionary SATAT initiative by the Indian government. SATAT stands for- Sustainable Alternative Towards Affordable Transport. The MOUs were signed with the most renowned brands such as Torrent Gas, Adani Gas, JBM group and Petronet LNG. But that’s not it! MOUs were also signed with technology providers such as Praj Industries, CEID consultants, Indian Oil, and Bharat Biogas Energy for setting up biogas plants in India . Pradhan also informed that about Rs. 30,000 crores of investment is estimated in these 900 plants. He added t

Bar Way Farm, Deerfield Massachusetts collaborated with Vanguard Renewables in 2014 to get a bio-digester installed to convert organic material such as cow poop into biogas by using specialized bacteria. This fuel scores 10 on 10 in terms of versatility once purified. Post purification, this is called biomethane or renewable natural gas.  According to Jigar Shah, co-founder of Generate Capital Inc. one of the biggest renewable natural gas owners in the country opined that natural gas producers must keep themselves prepared for the obsolescence of the natural gas utility. Bovine waste is usually stored in open lagoons. It is known for emitting methane which is a hazardous greenhouse gas. It is more than 80 times as potent as carbon dioxide would be over a period of 20 years. You must know that both methane and fossil fuel are mostly methane and although they burn more cleanly as compared to coal, yet emit CO2. Diversion of cow poop into biodigesters offers a ‘net climate win’ solution t

Food waste has always been a concern for people and governments across the globe, but Toronto Organics has set a precedent through their innovative initiative. They are all poised to convert food waste into renewable natural gas which is also known as RNG. In collaboration with Enbridge Gas Inc, The City of Toronto will set up the equipment at Dufferin Soild Waste Management Facility. Biogas upgradation will take place at this facility renewable natural gas production.  Various Uses of the Gas Produced The gas will be used to power the waste collection trucks apart from using it for heating the city buildings and facilities. The city will see a huge reduction in carbon footprint as Toronto moves forward with this visionary innovation. Companies offering bio-cng in India find this idea extremely innovative and far-sighted. The Big Idea The idea struck when the city of Toronto realized that the Dufferin Solid Waste Management Facility could do more to manage their biogas. The id

Meet Andrew Fisher, the wonder man who has a working plan to deal with food waste. What more? He can turn it into natural gas. Isn’t that just amazing? The former New Zealand army special air services officer seems to be on a mission and a successful one indeed. You will be amazed to know that his company known as EcoStock Supplies has collected about 35,000 tonnes of waste every year for more than 12 years from various places such as supermarkets and different manufacturers. The waste food his company collects includes breakfast cereals, bread, chips, scraps of vegetables and pasta to name a few and then works on turning it into animal feed. It is really encouraging for people and organizations interested in Biogas production . Let’s get to know more about Andrew Fisher’s mission and how it works. You can put all of the food waste ranging from meats to pizza with scrapings of Hawaiian at the bottom. Under the leadership of Fisher, EcoStock is all set to
