Mumbai Live: Club in Chembur turns 30 tonnes of food waste turns into cooking gas

Located in Swastik Park, the club, in collaboration with the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) set up a biogas plant in March and began using it from July. The plant processes wet waste, mostly food waste generated in the club, accounting to 500kg per day, through biomethanation.

Bio-methanation technology processes kitchen waste, which generates methane gas, through anaerobic digestion. During anaerobic digestion microorganisms break down biodegradable material in the absence of oxygen.
