Bio Gas Bottling Plant

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 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’ soluti...
