1,500 CUM Biogas Plant, NE Natural Farms in Meghalaya

NE Natural Farms, located in Meghalaya, faced a major challenge in managing the daily volume of poultry litter waste. Traditional disposal practices were proving inefficient, while electricity and fuel costs were steadily rising. Environmental concerns, particularly related to carbon emissions, were also increasing.

To address these issues, a Commercial Biogas Plant with a 1,500 CUM capacity was installed. Through this system, poultry waste is being efficiently converted into biogas and organic manure. The project was initiated through strong references and word of mouth, ensuring trust and reliability in execution.
