Thekra Gaushala Masalpur 85 CUM commercial biogas plant
A 5kW residential solar solution installed for Rekha Pathak in Ghaziabad to power a sustainable home.
Thekra Gaushala Masalpur 85 CUM commercial biogas plant
Thekra Gaushala Masalpur, located in Rajasthan, was managing approximately 2,200 kg of cow dung daily, creating challenges in waste handling, emissions, and fuel dependency. To address these issues, an 85 CUM commercial biogas plant was implemented. The system converts cattle dung into clean biogas, helping the gaushala reduce carbon emissions, lower LPG consumption, and improve overall operational efficiency through a sustainable waste-to-energy approach.
From Waste to Energy: Real Impact at Thekra Gaushala
Watch how the 85 CUM commercial biogas plant at Thekra Gaushala Masalpur converts organic waste into clean energy. A powerful example of sustainability, innovation, and rural development in action.
Objectives
Enhancing resource efficiency by transforming high-volume waste into renewable energy.
01.
To manage large quantities of cow dung in an organised and efficient manner.
02.
To reduce dependence on LPG and conventional fuel sources.
03.
To minimise environmental impact from untreated organic waste.
04.
To implement a long-term, sustainable waste-to-energy solution.
Challenges
Tackling large-scale waste handling inefficiencies and reducing environmental and cost pressures.
Continuous Waste Flow
Daily generation of 2,200 kg dung required uninterrupted processing and management.
Space & Storage Constraints
Accumulation of dung created challenges in storage and handling within the premises.
Emission Risks
Open decomposition led to methane release and environmental concerns.
Impact
Creating measurable improvements through energy recovery, emission reduction, and operational efficiency.
Streamlined Waste Processing
Daily dung is efficiently converted into biogas, eliminating accumulation issues.
Fuel Cost Optimisation
Reduced LPG usage leads to significant cost savings.
Lower Environmental Impact
Controlled digestion reduces greenhouse gas emissions.
Improved Resource Utilisation
Waste is transformed into energy, supporting a circular and self-sustaining system.
