Driving Sustainable Energy and Agriculture with Innovative CBG Technology
Dual upgrading technology CBG plant featuring PSA and membrane systems with organic fertilizer co-generation
Project Overview
The facility is designed to produce clean compressed natural gas as an alternative to conventional fuels, directly supporting India’s national drive toward sustainable energy independence. The high-purity biogas produced meets all relevant CNG quality standards for vehicle fuel applications.
Beyond energy production, the facility generates high-quality organic fertilizer as a valuable co-product. Strategic marketing efforts have secured commitments from local farmers covering over 1,500 acres, ensuring steady demand and creating a sustainable agricultural supply chain.
Production Metrics
- Daily CBG Production: Up to 15 metric tons per day
Economic Impact
The facility creates multiple revenue streams:
- Primary: CBG sales for vehicle fuel applications
- Secondary: Organic fertilizer sales to agricultural partners
- Environmental: GHG reduction through renewable energy generation and organic fertilizer use
- Community: Local employment and economic development
