27 Nov 2024 CW Team

Gwalior’s largest cowshed, Adarsh Gaushala, situated in Laltipara and operated by the Gwalior Municipal Corporation, is home to over 10,000 cattle. The Gaushala had achieved a significant milestone by establishing India’s first modern, self-sufficient cowshed equipped with a state-of-the-art Compressed Biogas (CBG) plant. This plant was said to be the first of its kind in Madhya Pradesh, designed to produce biogas from cattle dung and organic waste such as vegetable and fruit residues collected from markets and households.

According to the district authorities, this ambitious project, spread across five acres and developed in collaboration with the Indian Oil Corporation at a cost of Rs 310 million, transformed cow dung—an often underutilised resource—into Bio-CNG (compressed natural gas) and organic manure. It was highlighted that the plant would generate two tons of compressed biogas daily from 100 tons of cattle dung, along with 10-15 tons of dry bio-manure, which served as a valuable by-product for organic farming. The plant was described as not only technologically advanced but also designed for long-term sustainability. Additionally, provisions for windrow composting had been integrated adjacent to the main plant to facilitate further processing of organic waste.

It was noted that the CBG plant at Laltipara Gaushala stood as a model of successful collaboration between society and government, establishing a world-class benchmark in sustainable development. The facility produced 2-3 tons of Bio-CNG daily, offering a cleaner and eco-friendly alternative to fossil fuels while contributing to the reduction of carbon emissions.
