IGDT university for women 10 CUM Biogas plant
Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University is a ladies’ college with a Hostel. Initially, the university used a composting machine to handle Food Waste from the Kitchen and the Hostel. As the number of students increased, the quantity of Food Waste also increased, and the existing composting system became insufficient. They then invested in a 10 CUM Biogas solution to handle food waste more effectively and profitably.
IGDTUW 10 CUM Biogas Plant Case Study
This video showcases the IGDTUW 10 CUM biogas plant in action, demonstrating how organic waste is processed into usable clean energy. It highlights the system design, working process, and its role in creating a sustainable and eco-friendly campus.
Objectives
Enabling efficient Food Waste Management while reducing fuel dependency through Renewable Energy Solutions.
01.
To implement an efficient and scalable solution for managing increasing food waste
02.
To reduce dependency on conventional fuels like LPG by generating renewable energy.
03.
To promote sustainable waste management practices within the campus.
04.
To utilize by-products, such as slurry, to enhance green landscaping through organic manure.
Challenges
Managing rising food waste volumes alongside operational inefficiencies and increasing energy costs.
Rising Food Waste Volume
With the increase in hostel residents, daily Food Waste generation grew beyond the initial capacity.
Inefficient Existing System
The composting machine was unable to process large quantities of waste effectively.
Higher Operational Costs
Increased waste led to higher handling costs and continued dependence on LPG for cooking.
Impact
A Commercial Biogas Plant provides an immediate and eco-friendly solution to them.
Reduction in LPG Consumption
Biogas generated from food waste is now used for cooking, lowering fuel expenses.
Efficient Waste Management
The biogas plant ensures systematic and hygienic disposal of organic waste.
Production of Organic Manure
The slurry generated is utilised as nutrient-rich manure for campus gardens.
Improved Sustainability Practices
The adoption of circular waste management has strengthened the institution’s environmental responsibility.
