Downtown University 50 CUM commercial biogas plant
Downtown University, located in Odisha, initially used a composting machine to manage food waste generated from its kitchen and hostel facilities. However, with an increase in student population, the volume of food waste rose significantly, making the existing system inadequate. To overcome this challenge, the university adopted a more efficient and scalable approach. A 50 CUM commercial biogas plant, installed by Koshish Sustainable Solutions Pvt Ltd, now converts food waste into clean biogas used for cooking, reducing dependence on commercial LPG. The slurry produced is further utilised as organic-rich manure for campus landscaping.
Transforming Waste into Energy: A Real Biogas Success Story
Watch how the 50 CUM biogas plant at Downtown University converts daily organic waste into clean, renewable energy. Discover the process, benefits, and real impact on sustainability and cost savings.
Objectives
Driving efficient waste management and reducing fuel dependency through renewable energy adoption.
01.
To manage daily Food Waste effectively.
02.
To reduce reliance on conventional fuels like LPG.
03.
To implement a scalable and sustainable waste management solution.
04.
To promote circular economy practices through resource recovery.
Challenges
Addressing rising waste volumes, system inefficiencies, and increasing operational costs.
Increasing Food Waste Volume
Growth in the student population led to higher daily waste generation.
Inefficient Existing System
The composting machine could not handle large-scale waste effectively.
Rising Fuel Dependency
Continued reliance on LPG increased operational expenses.
Impact
Delivering cost savings, efficient waste utilisation, and enhanced sustainability outcomes.
Reduced LPG Consumption
Biogas is used for cooking, significantly lowering fuel costs.
Efficient Waste Management
Food waste is processed systematically and hygienically.
Organic Manure Production
Slurry is used as nutrient-rich manure for campus gardens.
Sustainable Campus Operations
Adoption of biogas technology strengthened environmental responsibility and circular practices.
