The energy crisis is not new to our generation. From electricity to fuelling vehicles with either petrol, diesel or gas, non-renewable sources of energy will extinct one day. The reason why must we strive for newer ways of energy generation gives solutions to the problem. Gas, whether it is used for kitchen and household purposes or it is used at bigger industrial levels, is also facing a shortage. To tackle this situation, the Indian Government has taken numerous initiatives with various private industries for the production of cattle-dung biogas over the years.

Different in this race, Akshar Biotech Pvt. Ltd. is taking a unique approach to biogas generation with the help of food waste. Under the guidance of Mr. Bharat G Savaliya, the company has been on the journey of protecting Mother Earth with his brilliant ideas of producing biogas and implementing energy plants.

‘Do not Waste the Food Waste’

Green energy is the future of a country like India where various sources are available to produce biogas energy. Cow-based biogas manufacturing has become old as newer techniques have emerged. However, this method could not give the expected results and according to Mr. Bharat, one should try different tactics to solve the problem, just like biogas production through a wide range of food waste. This food waste may include agricultural residue, by-products of horticulture, fruit & vegetables, energy crops such as maize, organic municipal waste of vegetables, waste of gardens and parks, sewage sludge, and more. The energy generated using food waste can be given to grids of electricity and thereby to the nearest areas as well as residential properties.

Novel Biogas Plants

In Mr. Bharat’s opinion, the future of green energy is in the hands of companies producing energy with a novel and unique approach, to food waste energy production. Akshar Biotech is highly efficient in creating customized Biogas Plants. They include Waste to Energy Biogas Plants, Renewable Energy Biogas Plants, Organic Waste Energy Biogas Plants, and Waste Food Biogas Plants.

Moreover, based on the availability of substrates specific to the location and as per the individual client requirement, the company makes available customized solutions to its clients. All the equipment used in the making of the Biogas Plant is precision engineered to meet the specific requirements of the customers. Additionally, the team provides outstanding technical and maintenance support to the customers.
