Scientists of CSIR-IICT have developed a new digestor for harvesting biogas from poultry waste.
The new high-rate biomethanation Anaerobic Gas Lift Reactor (AGR) technology is said to be simple, efficient and inexpensive compared to the present reactor. Ahuja Engineering Services has installed the AGR plant at Pedda Shivanoor. CSIR-IICT and AES propose to install such plants at poultry farms across the country.
