Background
Biogas is generated at a relatively low pressure than the pressure of LPG in the kitchen cooking gas cylinders. Due to this separate stoves with different burner designs are used for both Biogas and LPG. However, the kitchen space is difficult to find for two stoves in most Indian kitchens, and so this POC by
NIE-CREST was initiated to experiment if same stove can be used for both LPG and Biogas with seamless switching between the two, so the adoption of kitchen waste LPG Gas systems are accelerated in India.
NIE-CREST is a department in The National Institute of Engineering (NIE), Mysuru, which promoted adoption of green technologies, ecofriendly technologies, altermnate fuels, bio-diesels and a host of other innovative systems to make our lives more eco-friendly and sustainable.
