Chain Analysis

GGS GES GUS

GGS : Gas Generation SystemGES : Gas EnrichmentSystemGUS : Gas Utilization System


Gas Generation System

Mixing system – available in India

Pumping system – partially available in India and manufacturing possibility exists

Gas storage system – proper trading possibility exists. With rise in demand it can

be manufactured in India

Heating system – Indigenously available

Civil work – No problem

Know how – It is needed to give a customized solution and fortunately countries

like Germany are ready to help

A proper bio-fertilizer enrichment possibility is there to enhance N, P, K and to

utilize the humic acid

Small scale gas generation system upto 25 cum can be offered in a pre-fabricated

mode. The technology is indigenously available.


Gas Enrichment System

Water scrubbing – Indigenously available and can be further

developed

Amine scrubbing – Indigenously available

PSA – Indigenously available and market is picking up

Membrane – Trading possible


Gas Utilization System

Booster compressor – Still very few options are available in

India. It gives a good opportunity for trading or even

manufacturing.

Genset – India heavily depends on import for Biogas based

gensets. The O&M possibilities along with the trading of such

gensets do exist. Small gensets are now available in India.

Utilization of Biogas


Biofuels in Comparison


Substrate from Agricultural, Urban and Industrial origin

Cow Dung, poultry litter

Agricultural residues as rice straw, banana stem, maize stalks

Sugar mill press mud, Distilleries spent wash, Sago plant effluent

Municipal Solid Waste, slaughter house waste, vegetable market waste, kitchen waste

Silage from agricultural crops as Napier grass, Sugar beet, Sugar cane, Maize


Financial Analysis

1.8-2.1 Units of Electricity

0.4 Kg of Compressed Biogas

INR 14.7 @ INR 7/KWh*(Euro 0.17)

INR 24 @ INR 60/Kg*(Euro 0.29)

INR 5 @ INR 5/Ncum(Euro 0.06)

Not to forget – Bio-fertilizer is an intrinsic part of revenue for Biogas business!

* CAPEX & OPEX almost similar for both type of plants

1 Ncum of Biogas


Indian Biogas Scenario

Scattered market

No established player at national level

Market needs someone offering end to end solution

Experienced and skilled workforce is lacking

Government active intervention is needed

Promotion of organic crops is lackingDifferent approach is needed for small, medium and large scale biogas plant promotion

Supply chain management is to be streamlined

Challenges for Bio-fertilizer

• Market acceptability• Time length to enhance the soil conditioning• Proper marketing• Enrichment with N, P, K


Summary

• Biogas: Versatile and efficient• R&D: Improvement of efficiency and environmental performance of biogas

production and utilization• For Biogas development, clear governmental policies are crucial• Integration and compensation of biogas – technically, financially and

socially• Trees can be retained• Biogas is a quick, easily controlled fuel• No smoke or smell (unless there is a leak)• Clean pots• Sludge is a better fertilizer than manure or synthetic fertilizers (andis cheaper than manufactured products)• Reduced pathogen transmission compared to untreated waste


Q&A

Commonsense is the realised sense of proportion!
