Title: | Biogas Plant Operated on Deoiled Cake of Jatropha Seeds |
Area: | Earth, Atmosphere & Environment Sciences |
Focus Area: | Biogas Plant |
Social Benefits: | Rated Capacity is 6m3/ day. But produces 10 m3/ day in winter and 14 m3/ day in summer
, H: D ratio of the digester is 1:1 compared to conventional 1:2.3
, Less surface area, thus, less heat loss and higher efficiency (70%)
, Posiibility of scaling up to industrial model / community scale
, Suitable for higher water table region and hilly area
, Less digester volume, less cost, less retention time, less feed requirement, higher methane content in Biogas (72%) and higher biogas prduction rate
, Efficient mixing chamber with evenly distributed spikes
, Ground level out let without any pipe and wider slurry tank for faster drying making it suitable as an excellent organic manure
, Energy from waste, even adoptable in Farm and remote areas. |
