Jagadish, a prominent cement retailer based in Salem, Tamil Nadu, has become an enthusiastic advocate for sustainable energy solutions. As one of the early customers of Green Connect, Jagadish recently shared his success story with the implementation of their revolutionary food waste biogas plant. This innovative technology has not only transformed waste into renewable energy but has also provided significant cost savings for his household.
Impressed by its performance during a real-time demonstration, Jagadish made the decision to invest in the biogas plant, which was installed back in 2012.
What sets Green Connect’s biogas plant apart is its ability to eliminate odors commonly associated with decomposing food waste. Jagadish attests to the fact that, regardless of the type of food waste put into the plant, there is no foul smell emitted. The plant has been efficiently converting the daily food waste generated by Jagadish’s family into biogas, significantly reducing their reliance on conventional cooking fuels.
Before embracing biogas as a cooking fuel, Jagadish’s family consumed one liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) cylinder per month. However, with the biogas plant in operation, they now only require one cylinder every three months.
Having enjoyed a decade of seamless operation, Jagadish recently encountered a minor setback when his biogas plant became filled with sludge. However, he quickly reached out to Green Connect’s dedicated service team, who promptly resolved the issue through their professional maintenance and support. This incident highlighted the importance of periodic maintenance to ensure the long-term performance and efficiency of biogas plants.
Jagadish’s commitment to reducing waste and achieving cost savings showcases the tangible benefits of investing in renewable energy solutions.
Note : The production of biogas depends on the size of the biogas plant and the quantity of food waste fed into it.
