Koyambedu Biogas Plant - Well Done, India!
The Koyambedu Wholesale Market is not far from the apartment where I last lived in India, before I moved to the US. I remember riding past the site regularly, long before construction even started, as well as buying groceries farmer-direct after it opened, at hugely discounted prices over retail markets in Vadapalani, T. Nagar, and other parts of Chennai. Now, the waste from Koyambedu will be processed into Syngas, which would be supplied to homes in the fast growing neighborhood.
I sincerely hope that this is a trend. Using waste productively, is a great way for poor nations like India to save money. The added bonus of keeping the streets cleaner, would be the icing on the cake. Well done! Hope other cities and markets in the country follow this example!
