SUSTAINABLE ENERGY GENERATION THROUGH BIODIGESTOR SYSTEMS

Context

Rural households use non renewable wood in conventional inefficient cook stoves for their cooking and heating leading to GHG emissions and local air pollution. Also the animal manure from their cattle is left untreated leading to methane emissions.

Context

Project Activity

The proposed project treats organic waste anaerobically in the bio-digestor and the biogas recovered is utilized as bio fuel by the rural households replacing inefficient wood consumption in stoves. The slurry is further used as bio fertilizer. The project activity thus reduces associated GHG emissions and assist the local community in sustainable agricultural practices.
