New Delhi, Sep 20
Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Saturday inaugurated the national Capital's first large-scale biogas plant at Nangli Dairy, calling it a "proud moment" and emphasising that the city needs several such facilities to process cattle dung and municipal waste.
This plant processes 200 tonnes of waste or cow dung daily and produces 5,600 kilograms of CNG gas, which is supplied to Indraprastha Gas Limited through a pipeline under an existing agreement. Additionally, it generates 30 tonnes of compost every day, which will be distributed to farmers.
The biogas plant, located in the Nangli Dairy area of the Matiala Assembly constituency, was inaugurated in the presence of several dignitaries.
