Context : Energy Situation in Bangladesh

Around 100 Million people have no access to grid electricity

Only 3% people have access to gas through pipelines

Lack of energy is one of the major reasons for rural backwardness

There is potential of 4 million Biogas plants in the country

Climate in Bangladesh is suitable for Biogas production

Biogas

Biogas is produced decomposing organic materials (mainly animal wastes) in an anaerobic condition. Major component of this gas is methane (CH4). It has no color, smell and it burns like natural gas. This Biogas use cooking, power to lighting.

Why Biogas?

Our climate is suitable for biogas production Raw materials are easily available Technology is simple and locally available All hazardous materials are the raw materials

of a biogas digester like poultry farm waste No access of natural gas in rural area Shortage of electricity Environmental Development

Improvements of Biogas System

• Mixing Device• Turret• Pipeline• Hydraulic Chamber with slab • Burner• Slurry Processing• Water Drain• Cooking Practice

Constructing Commercial Biogas Plants

Economic of Biogas Technology • Saving of expenditures on fuel sources

• Saved time to utilize in other income generation activities

• Enhanced soil productivity because of the use bio-slurry (added N,P,K values)

• Reduction in the quantity of chemical fertilizers due to the use of bio-slurry

• Reduction on health expenditures due to decrease in smoke-borne diseases

• Employment to local people

• Private sector development that produces economic goods

• Development of Livestock

Other Benefits of Biogas• Reduction of work load, especially for

woman• Biomass Saving• Useable Organic Fertilizer • Better sanitation (if toilets attached)• Improvement of health condition by

reducing Indoor Air Pollution (IAP)• Employment generation• Reduction of green house gas emission
