The Delhi Milk Scheme Biogas Plant serves as a great example. It converts dairy waste into biogas, solving waste disposal issues and cutting energy costs for dairy operations," explained ES Ranganathan. "This plant demonstrates how biogas technology can effectively manage waste and provide energy in urban areas."
"In recent years, biogas plant technology has advanced significantly. New anaerobic digesters like continuous stirred-tank reactors (CSTRs) and plug-flow digesters have boosted biogas production efficiency. These digesters break down organic matter more effectively, yielding more biogas per unit of input."
"Moreover, using pre-treatment techniques such as mechanical sorting and enzymatic hydrolysis has sped up the decomposition process. This makes biogas production more efficient and cost-effective, showing promise in meeting India's energy needs while lessening environmental impact.
