Growth in Waste-to-Energy Projects and Urban Biogas Initiatives
The spurt in the development of waste-to-energy (WTE) plants in India is a key growth driver of the biogas upgradation industry. India's growing population and urbanization have made managing waste a mounting problem, especially in urban regions. In order to combat this, the government and private companies have stepped up initiatives to develop biogas plants to process organic waste into quality biogas. For instance, as per industry reports, the Sustainable Alternative Towards Affordable Transportation (SATAT) scheme launched by Indian government aims to establish 5,000 compressed biogas (CBG) plants by 2030, representing the government's growing emphasis on biogas upgradation initiatives. Additionally, these plants not only help in waste management but also contribute to the production of renewable natural gas (RNG), addressing energy shortages. Upgrading biogas to RNG is an essential step in enhancing its value and making it suitable for various applications, including industrial energy consumption and transportation fuel. Moreover, as cities push for sustainable solutions, biogas upgradation technologies are becoming integral to the success of WTE projects.
Technological Advancements and Efficiency Improvements
Advancements in biogas upgradation technologies are transforming India’s renewable energy landscape. Traditionally, biogas upgradation was limited to simple methods, but newer, more efficient technologies, such as water scrubbing, pressure swing adsorption (PSA), and membrane separation are now gaining traction. These technologies offer higher biogas purity levels and increased methane recovery, making the upgraded biogas more viable as a renewable energy source. In line with this, water scrubbing and PSA are particularly popular in India, as they are energy-efficient, cost-effective, and adaptable to the country’s diverse biogas sources. As the government and private players focus on improving the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of biogas upgradation, these innovations are expected to reduce operational costs and increase the adoption of biogas as a clean energy alternative. For instance, in June 2024, CSIR-IIP announced collaboration with ORSL, to implement Vacuum Swing Adsorption (VSA) technology for compressed biogas (CBG) production. This technology upgrades 350 m³/h of raw biogas into high-quality biomethane for industrial and transport applications. Moreover, the integration of automation and digital monitoring systems is enhancing the scalability and reliability of biogas upgradation plants, making them more accessible to a wider range of applications. This trend is essential as India moves towards more sustainable energy systems.
