Now Biogas can be bottled in cylinder like LPG, which is something greener than compressed natural gas (CNG)
India may use its vast organic wastes to produce compressed biogas (CBG), which will supplement CNG. While technology to enrichment and compress biogas has already been devised, it will not be too long before our cars start running on CBG. Biogas consists of 60% methane and 40% carbon dioxide. This biogas can be purified (upto 96% of Methane) to match CNG standards.
It is our pleasure to inform you that for this we offer turnkey contract services to set up the plant and preparing Detailed Project Report (DPR) by highly qualified and experienced consultants. The data in the report are reliable and up-to-date collected from suppliers and Manufacturers.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) on CBG
Q. What is the cost of bottling?
A. The cost of production of CBG is cheaper and it is to be about 50 percent less than a LPG cylinder. This would further reduce with increased demand.
Q. What is the capacity of the tank?
A. It depends on the capacity of the plant you choose. But the most economic size is 400 M3 for commercial purpose.
Q. What is the project cost?
A. It also depend on the capacity of the plant varies from Rs.25, 00,000/- to 50,00,000/ as per today’s technology available.
Q. What is the difference between CBG and Other Gas?
A. There is no difference between CBG and CNG, as after purification of methane content is better at about 97% in CBG. LPG is at a pressure of about 14 Bar as compared to CBG at 200 Bar. The same quantity of CBG can be filled as compared to CNG
CBG being cheaper source of energy and with ever-rising cost of petroleum fuels it is a hot selling fuel. CBG is more effective than not only petrol and diesel, but also CNG & LPG. According to an estimate, it can give fuel efficiency of 12-15 km per kg (for a Maruti van) and costs only around Rs. 12 per kg, whereas CNG costs around Rs. 24 per kg.
Q. What is the market risk?
A. There is no any market risk of this project as petrol and diesel prices go higher and higher. Also broadening the application of biogas has given a new cheaper, eco-friendly alternative and cost-effective compressed biogas (CBG).
Q. What is the Government Assistance?
A. As CBG being cheaper source of energy and with ever-rising cost of petroleum fuels it is a hot selling fuel and hence Ministry of Non Conventional Energy Source (MNES), Government of India giving subsidies which is varies from state to state. As MNES is concerned it is 30%. Regarding the Govt. subsidy and permission for commercial production and sale, you have to enquire from the NODAL Agency of MNES for your State.
Q. What is the Government Formalities?
A. There is no license for this plant, whereas as per Central Government “Guess Cylinders Rules” and “Explosive Act” permission is must. Such permission is for Manufacturing, Storage and for Sale.
Q. What is the role of “Krishna Engineers & Consultants” on this project?
A. We are offering our consultancy services for selection of the capacity of the plant according to raw materials, local conditions and the promoter’s resources. We can prepare Detailed Project Report (DPR) for obtaining Bank Loans, Subsidy and other formalities. We also render our services on Process Knowledge, trainings to your personnel at your place and after sales services up to 2 years from the commercial production. At last we are the turnkey contractor for this project from procurement of machineries to trial production.
Q. What are the charges for our services?
A. To prepare DPR it is Rs.10, 000/- plus 12.36 % service tax and for turnkey project execution (Consultancy, Procurement of Machineries, Installation, Trial Production, Training to your Personnel and After-sale-services for 2 years) is Rs.2, 00,000/-.
However we have prepared a Brief Report on commercial production of Compressed Biogas Plant (CBG), which contains some information like economics, land & machineries, capacity of the plant, block capital, working capital, man power, utilities, profit analysis etc. It is also very useful for making decision on this plant along with its capacity and useful for preparation of DPR. The charge for this brief report is Rs.1000/-.
Q. How you will get our DPR or Brief Report?
A. This can be had through your email on payment in the shape of Demand Draft in favour of “Krishna Engineers & Consultants” payable at Bhubaneswar. You can also deposit the same in our ICICI current account no: 006105002038.
