WASTE TO ENERGY PROJECTS

IN

LARGE MESSING AREAS

The daily per capita solid waste generationin our country ranges from about 300 g to500 g.

As per SOE Report, 2010, the total wastegeneration in Delhi is approx. 7400 metrictones per day.

Food waste contributes to around 25-30%of the total waste generated in the city.

Around 70 to 75% of waste generated bylarge Messing Areas, Kitchen/Canteens.Hotels, Restaurants, etc. is biodegradable

FOOD WASTE: POTENTIAL SOURCE OF ENERGY

Waste comprises of two components –Biodegradable(wet) waste and Non biodegradable (Dry)waste.

The wet waste comprises of food, vegetable and non-vegwaste whereas the dry waste comprises of plastic bottles,papers, plastic wrappers, HDPE, LLDPE bags etc.

The wet waste (mostly food waste) is a major cause ofmosquito breeding leading to malaria & dengue.

However , this wet waste or biodegradable waste can befermented through anaerobic digestion to generate biogaswhich can be utilized for cooking, heating, lighting, orgenerating electricity. The slurry produced is a goodmanure that can be used for Horticulture application.

FOOD WASTE: POTENTIAL SOURCE OF ENERGY

Biogas is a methane rich flammable gas that results from theanaerobic decomposition of organic waste material.

Biogas consists of methane (60 %), carbon dioxide, andtraces of other gases.

Biogas can be used to produce heat or power.

By-product produced during the process is a solid residuewhich is high-grade manure.

Biogas production from biomass is considered carbon dioxideneutral and therefore does not emit additional GreenhouseGases (GHG) into the atmosphere.

Has additional advantage of treating organic waste andreducing the environmental impact of these wastes.

BIOGAS PRODUCTION

BIOGAS PRODUCTION

Waste transportation cost is reduced by decentralizedtreatment of waste.

Reduce load on fast diminishing waste dumping sites.

Abatement strategy for food waste methane generation isto either capture the methane generated in the landfill andburn or use it OR Avoid such waste reaching the landfillthrough an alternative processing strategy could generatesubstantial carbon credits.

Biogas production will help Govt. to combat rising menaceof urban waste, global warming & earn carbon credits too.

Step towards sustainable energy sources.

BIOGAS PRODUCTION

BIOGAS TECHNOLOGIES

In recent years, there has been an increase in the numberof waste to energy projects in the country.

Various technology developers have emerged and havesetup biogas plants based on biodegradable wastes, whichhave facilitated decentralize treatment of waste.

These plants can be installed in different capacities rangingfrom ¼ m3 to 1000m3 and above depending on theavailability of quantity of biomass wastes.

While the small capacity plants up to 2m3 can be pre-fabricated, the higher capacity plants can be constructedin-situ.

BIOGAS TECHNOLOGIES

Basically two types of digester designs are used in Biogas technology:

Floating gas-holder type

Fixed dome type

Suitably modified designs have also been developed for treating different types of food wastes. These are:

MODIFIED USAB by MAILHEM

MODIFIED KVIC by BIOTECH

TEAM by TERI

NISARGRUNA by BARC

9

It is an indigenously developed technology by MailhemEngineers Pvt. Ltd.

It uses Modified Upward Anaerobic Sludge Blanket(USAB) technology to treat all types of solid & liquid wastehaving large percentage of suspended solids

It is a High rate Biomethanation technique which can treatsolid waste such as canteen, vegetable, poultry andslaughterhouse wastes, etc.

Biogas generated can either be used as fuel in lieu of LPGor to generate power using 100% Biogas Generator sets.

TO ENERGY

24

It is an indigenous and appropriate technology developed by

BARC especially for Urban areas to convert municipal

organic solid waste into biogas and manure.

The 'Nisargruna' technology adopts biphasic reactor system

wherein the first reactor is operated under aerobic and

thermophilic conditions.

As a result of the first feature, the universal problem of odour

from waste processing biogas plants is eliminated and the

second feature leads to a faster process

Unlike conventional single phase digesters, which take 30-40

days, a 'Nisargruna' plant can digest organic solid waste

between 18-22 days. 25

This technology can process biodegradable waste such as

kitchen waste, paper, grass, gobar and dry leaves, etc.

It offers Zero garbage and Zero effluent and provides high

quality manure and methane gas.

Weed free manure obtained from such waste has high

nitrogen contents and acts as an excellent soil conditioner.

This plant could be set up for ecofriendly disposal of wet-

waste generated in kitchens/canteens of big Hospitals/Hotels/

Factories/residential complexes and can avoid health hazards

due to dump sites.
