But that’s just one small aspect of the global waste problem we’re currently facing. Becoming aware of the impact of straws began a… Continue reading
Although the conversion of agriculture wastes – cattle dung and crop residues – to biogas and digested slurry is an established and well-proven technology in India, it has been under-used, probably because until recently, firewood was easily available and chemical fertilizer was relatively affordable to most of the farmers in… Continue reading
Biomass energy energy is a renewable energy source derived from biological materials, such as plants, animals, and their byproducts. It has been used for thousands of years, dating back to the use of wood for heating and cooking. Today, biomass energy has evolved into a diverse and rapidly growing industry,… Continue reading
Sustainability is becoming a growing concern among the general public, and both individuals and companies have begun to take the necessary steps to reduce their carbon footprint and diminish their greenhouse gas emissions.
