Local Production of Sustainable Electricity from Domestic Wet Waste in India

摘要

India's issue with solid waste management couldn't be any more evident. This is because of the country's inability to keep up with the waste it has generated due to rapid urbanization, industrialization, and population explosion; implementation of an effective waste management system hasn't been fruitful. Indian domestic waste is found to be comparatively moister in nature and of lower calorific value. Hence, thermal technologies of management fail. A preeminent technology for Indian solid waste management would be its conversion into biomethane, which also happens to be an eco-friendly option. With utmost concern of this fact, a sustainable solution regarding the Public sector has been created in the effort of benefiting society at a community level. With an effort to bring back bio methanation with the perks of waste management (similar to ancient biogas stoves); this model aims at properly disposing the household wet waste and generating methane-based electricity from it to fuel a local park indefinitely.
