4. Background
Indian Industries are energy intensive and generate large quantities of waste that can be converted to energy.
Started implementing a programme in 2007 on energy recovery from urban and industrial waste streams and supported about 180 projects
MSW Power Plants – MW Projects
Grid power projects in Industries – 71.8 MW 18 projects
Captive Off-grid projects – MW 70 projects
Biogas for captive thermal – About 6 lakh m3/day 74 projects
Bio-CNG projects – 47,000 kg/day projects
Installed mainly in distilleries, starch, paper and solvent extraction plants etc.
Large potential in Sugar, Cattle Farming, Poultry and Food, Fruit & Vegetable Processing industries etc.
Biomethanation offers significant potential due to versatility for multiple feed stocks as well as the comprehensive utilization of energy, nutrients and by-products (zero waste)

11. 450 Cum / day biogas plant at Govind Godham Gushala, Punjab.
WtE Plant for Captive Power
450 Cum / day biogas plant at Govind Godham Gushala, Punjab.
The plant meets half of the power needs of the gaushala.
The plant with the capacity of 450 cubic meter of biogas can generate power of 50 KVA by biogas generated at the plant.

12. Opportunities & Challenges in Bio-methanation Projects
Substantial amount of industrial organic waste generation
Growing demand for the by-products (i.e. organic fertilizers, CO2)
Highly efficient advanced Anaerobic Digestion (AD) process & equipment available
Challenges
Organic Waste Management, including seasonal organic wastes (i.e. collection, segregation and storage)
Lack of market development for the by-products
High cost, High financial risks
Unavailability of equipment suitable for medium scale bio-methane projects, both at upstream and downstream processes
