چکیده

The energy demand in India is increasing substantially and the energy supply is not in pace with demand. The recovery of energy from waste material is one of the best methods to tackle the energy crisis. The potential for recovery of energy from urban waste is high in Maharashtra followed by Uttar Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and West Bengal. In this paper, anaerobic digestion method is used to find the potential of energy recovery from the liquid and solid waste in the form of biogas. Thus the production of biogas from industrial and domestic waste is working successfully in small and large scale private projects in India. The potential of energy recovery has been estimated based on the available data. Also the carbon emission from the natural gas production plant is found and compared with the conventional coal based power production methods. Keyword – Solid waste, Liquid waste, Anaerobic Digestion / Biomethanation, Carbon Emission, Carbon Reduction.
