1,600 CUM Biogas Plant, RSWK in Jharkhand
RSWK, located in Jharkhand, operates a large poultry farm with around 1.8 lakh birds. Managing the huge quantity of poultry litter generated daily had become a major challenge for the farm. Rising electricity and fuel costs were also affecting operational efficiency, while environmental concerns related to waste disposal were increasing.
To solve these issues, a Commercial Biogas Plant with a 1,600 CUM capacity was installed. The system converts poultry waste into clean biogas and organic manure, helping the farm improve waste management, generate renewable energy, reduce operational costs, and support sustainable farming practices.
