A company in India is making compressed biogas from rice straw, transforming farm waste into fuel. Energy experts say compressed biogas could be the fuel of the future. Made from organic waste, it could help India cut costly fossil fuel imports.

As majorly a tropical region, India has huge potential in Bio CNG production! 🤞
India seems to be doing better than 'first' world countries like the US and Europe...this sounds promising and good to hear !!
Scroll is the best media in India ☺️
This type of plant is need of the hour in our country where air pollution is now a days is a major problem. Thankyou sir with regards
with India's huge population it could easily convert human waste to biogas and residential/agricultural/industrial waste to methanol via pyrolysis?
7:57 min: the byproduct of compressed biogas if fermented organic material that can be used as manure, which can be used as organic fertilizer by farmers.
I like this channel!! ❤ THUMBS UP
Nice video scroll!!!
Good to hear
Indore do this in very large scale there's public buses are run by bio gas
do you need to install another tank and system or traditional cng system and tanks work
You should share the link to organization mentioned in the video
Why don't these technologies scale up? Why do they get limited to a few cities?
Does India ferment human dung during sewer waste processing to obtain biogas? It seems like a big opportunity in the waste stream.
That has been in many farms for a long time with conventional biogas, for cooking gas and small scale electrification
Where we can seen this plant
What does it mean that the CO2 is sequestered by plants. That is vague. Is this process at least reducing the CO2 emission? or other GHGs ?
All plant material requires water sunshine and CO2 to create.
@@gr8bkset-524 Yes but that is not targeted sequestration.
This way every emitter can claim that their emission is sequestered.
Also one major benefit is that. If the organic waste were left to rot in open, it releases methane gas in atmosphere. This Methane gas is more than 25 times as potent as carbon dioxide at trapping heat in the atmosphere. Thus saving the atmosphere from this dangerous GHG and using it as a fuel instead.
I believe that this the most sustainable fuel we have for vehicles. As it makes tremendous value from waste by closing the circle and creating a circular economy.
CO2 is not the only gas that causes global warming. Methane is 24 times more warming and has longer residence time in atmosphere and it cannot be taken out of atmosphere like CO2. So capture and convertion of biogenic methane into CO2 is still offsetting of Carbon and is also even quantified accordingly for carbon crediting purposes as well, because it makes it into a mobile and sequesterable compound.
CO2 can then be sequestered into solid plant matter, incorporated into soil column by rainwater infiltration, precipitated by lithosequestering and by enhanced rock weathering- none of which can directly sequester methane
I think they are trying to say that CNG is carbon neutral and that CNG reduces the CO2 emissions that would have emitted if we had used fossil fuels instead.
AgroGaz / Primove engg should seriously consider setting up in Haryana n Punjab till winters, I might not survive this yrs stubble burning season
each city ciroration should install cbg unit
How can I contact your good self for a new plant .
CNG and CBG are completely different.
Who told indian government has banned ethanol from maize,grains,rice😂😂Instead 180+ ethanol plants are in work in progress,govt has approved it😂😂
Ethanol in India is produced from sugarcane molasses, which if you didn't know, is not a food grain
@@aleenaprasannan2146 majority ethanol is from molasses no doubt,but read first what I have commented.....
@@sourabhjain55 I see...Didn't know about that change
Why is it still not a very common option we still see petrol pump 😂😂😂😂 heatwave is making life more and more difficult
Compressed biogas, run your car with your kitchen waste!!!
A terrrific initiative by a Pune based co!!!!
