983 Markets wholesale markets Bigger urban markets produce e: Directory published by Ministry of Agriculture tons waste /day Total Waste ~ >50 million tons* /year Disposed in the landfills

Facts Figures Waste from Wholesale Vegetable & Fruit Markets 50 million tons Enriched Biogas (>97% Methane) from 50 million 1.7 million tons tons Diesel / Petrol Replaced ~ 1.7 million tons Total Estimated CO 2 emissions Reduction 4.2 - 6.15 million tons on replacing petrol / diesel respectively

� Water Scrubbing � � � Methane 45 -75% Traces � Polyethylene Glycol Scrub Biogas � Chemical Absorption Highly Corrosive CO2 25-55% � Pressure Swing Adsorption Increases compression ces heating � Bio-filters & Transportation cost value � Cryogenic Separation Limit Economic Feasibility of Biogas

Better Economi Reduce Impor Fewer Emissions Reduce Outflow reduces foreign exchang CO2 by 25%, CO by 90-97% NO X by 35 – 60%, Hydrocarbon by 50-75% ergy Security particulate matter: almost sets non-renewable none ources like oil, natural centralized: create s and benefit local nomies throughout

Transport Fuel in India

1.08 million Natural Gas Vehicles 571 Refueling Stations Considering Authorizing Retail CNG/ Enriched GAIL Developing Infrastructu Biogas City Gas Distribution System Gas Pipeline

Air pollution reached alarming levels in cities Easier to switch fuel for public transport rather than private Shortage of landfill Why Urban vehicles space and Expense in Vegetable transporting waste to outskirts Wholesale Markets Every city has Central Bus depot with diesel exhaust & soot particles City Markets are Relatively large and centralized like Mumbai/ Chennai/Bangalore/Delhi

Success Strong Stakeholder Environmental Networks and Strategic Regulations to Alliances between RE industry, agriculture, enforce switch to Municipalies, Gas (like Delhi) Environmental Groups � �� Business Value Well defined Greater Public Biogas Private Roadmap for Academia India Partnership
