40 CUM Commercial Biogas Plant at Palamu, Jharkhand

A 5kW residential solar solution installed for Rekha Pathak in Ghaziabad to power a sustainable home.

40 CUM Commercial Biogas Plant at Palamu, Jharkhand

An sustainable initiative by the Govt. of Jharkhand to build a commercial biogas plant at Palamu, Jharkhand under the Gobardhan Scheme. The accumulation of 1000kg of cow dung daily becomes problematic in discarding, while it keeps getting piled up in the Gaushala. It imposes threat to the health of cows and the people working there. The environment becomes unhygenic due to which bad odour comes. Through this the Carbon Emissions increases.

 

This problem needs a sustainable solution that the Govt. Of Jharkhand took the initiative of getting a Commercial Biogas Plant installed. The impact of it is big, the problem of organic waste management is resolved quickly by converting it into renewable energy. Making it use in Cooking Gas, generating electricity, and Fuel.

Koshish Sustainable Solutions

High Waste Generation Load

Large-scale poultry operations generated significant amounts of waste, making disposal challenging.

Koshish Sustainable Solutions

Increase Energy Costs

Heavy reliance on external energy sources was increasing operational expenses.

Koshish Sustainable Solutions

Environmental Degradation Risks

 Improper waste handling was contributing to higher carbon emissions and pollution.

Impact

Creating measurable environmental and economic value with a Commercial Biogas Plant.

Streamlined Waste Conversion

Poultry litter waste is now efficiently processed into useful energy, reducing disposal issues.

On-Site Energy Support

Partial electricity requirements are being met through biogas-based generation, lowering dependency on grid power.

Useful Utilisation of Resource

Biogas slurry is being converted into organic manure, supporting sustainable agriculture practices.

Lower Carbon Emissions

The carbon footprint has been reduced, resulting in a cleaner operational environment.
