By an approximate formula, 100 cows will give/day 1000/Kg of cow dung, this in a bio digester will yield about 40 M3 of Gobar gas. After removing impurities such as CO2, Sulphur, Moisture etc will yield about 20M3 or 17Kg of pure methane gas.
It is only now that, a Technology has been developed by us, enabling the use of this gas from Bio digester. Gober gas is purified of all impurities and moisture. Pure Methane gas is than Compressed. This Compressed Bio - Gas is capable of running Power plants & Vehicles.
Biogas is an economical, renewable and an eco-friendly fuel. Biogas is produced in an anaerobic digester i.e. a Gobar gas plant. Biogas in its natural self consists of Moisture, Carbon dioxide, Hydrogen sulfide and Methane gas. Methane has a high calorific value in its pure stage. Due to the presence of impurities Biogas becomes a very low calorific value fuel and hence finds a very limited application even though it is cheap and easily available.
We have to extract pure and high calorific value fuel methane from low calorific fuel Biogas to make it an IC Engine suitable fuel. Once pure Methane is available in suitable quality and quantity it finds a wide range of applications from running an oil engine, driving a Motor car Engine to operating a Gas Turbine for rural power generation.
Biogas generated from the digester is allowed to flow through moisture traps. This process drains out the Moisture present in the gas. The gas is than allowed to counter flow in a specially designed Sulfide extractor. This filter drains out Balance Moisture along with the present sulfides.
Treated gas is pressurized with the help of a primary compressor. The filters mounted drain out any present moisture and Oil present post compression.
he pressurized clean gas is than passed through a Physical Separation Device. The Physical Separation Device is a specially designed modern high pressure combined directional flow device for cleaning Biogas of it high impurities.
A measuring device is fitted after the filters to gauge the quantum of clean Methane gas collected in the collecting tank.The cleaned Methane gas is than taken into a 3-Stage high-pressure compressor.
The compressor compresses the gas from
a) Atmospheric to 10Kg/cm2 in stage I
b) 10Kg/cm2 to 60Kg/cm2 in stage II
c) 60Kg/cm2 to 250Kg/cm2 in stage III
This pressure is considered suitable to fill up a CNG bottle rack. This CNG Bottle Rack can than be connected to a standard CNG Dispenser unit. Now this purified Gobar gas is ready to be used as Fuel in a motor car, or run a Gas Turbine or any CNG converted Internal combustion engine connected to an alternator to produce electricity.
We have renamed this Purified Biogas as CBG - COMPRESSED BIOGAS.
The whole System from Input of Biogas into the Machine till Filling CBG into a Vehicle or Bottles consumes less than 5Kva of Power for a system designed to treat 200 M3. of gobar-gas.
Our system aims on reducing Capital cost, Operational costs and space requirements. The system can safely be operated by our rural citizens with minimum training. Our system has been designed keeping Indian rural conditions in mind. It is so flexible that it can be mounted on a Tractor Trolley (if required), the most common utility vehicle in all rural areas.
Due to this, mobile CBG unit, can cater to more than one Biogas plant in a rural area, as some times due to local conditions, it may not be possible to have all the Bio-waste Digesters in one area. The Trolley mounted machine with the help of a tractor can be transported to the Bio Digester which is filled up with the unrefined gas. The machine after refining the CBG can fill up the bottles which can be stored or transported to the required place with ease, causing an uninterrupted supply of high calorific value CBG gas.
A properly coordinated movement could result in complete conversion of Vehicles from fossil-based fuel to abundantly available Methane. This movement would change the face of Indian economy forever.
The size & cost of the plant depends upon the total quantum of Gobar available.
THis is the bottling technique
