2.  BIOMASS GASIFIER MADE THE LIFE OF RURAL
MADHYA PRADESH WOMEN MUCH MORE EASIER
IN COOKING, THANKS TO MR. SUDHIR PULORIA
WHO INTODUCED THE CONCEPT OF BIOMASS
GASIFICATION IN RURAL MADHYA PRADESH.
 TODAY MANY SCHOOLS IN RURAL MADHYA
PRADESH USES THIS LOW COST TECHNOLOGY
FOR COOKING MEALS.

3.  GASIFICATION IS A PROCESS THAT
CONVERTS ORGANIC OR FOSSIL BASED CARBONA
CEOUS MATERIALS INTO CARBON
MONOXIDE, HYDROGEN AND CARBON DIOXIDE.
 THE POWER DERIVED FROM GASIFICATION AND
COMBUSTION OF THE RESULTANT GAS IS
CONSIDERED TO BE A SOURCE OF RENEWABLE
ENERGY IF THE GASIFIED COMPOUNDS WERE
OBTAINED FROM BIOMASS

5.  THE ADVANTAGE OF GASIFICATION IS THAT
USING THE SYNGAS IS POTENTIALLY MORE
EFFICIENT THAN DIRECT COMBUSTION OF THE
ORIGINAL FUEL BECAUSE IT CAN BE COMBUSTED
AT HIGHER TEMPERATURES OR EVEN IN FUEL
CELLS.

6. BIOMASS GASIFIER
BIOMASS GASIFIER FEATURES
 AGRO BASED WASTE CAN BE
USED AS FUEL.
 MONEY VALUE, NO
ENVIRONMENTAL THREATS.
 PRICE RANGE 3000 FOR
SMALL GASIFIER WHICH IS
USED FOR DOMESTIC
ANOTHER A BIGGER 1 FOR
COMMERCIAL PURPOSE 12000
RS.
 SELF HELP GROUP IS USING
THIS PRODUCT IN A SCHOOL
FOR MAKING FOOD

7.  PROVIDES SUSTAINABLE AND AFFORDABLE
ALTERNATIVE TO FOSSIL FUEL .THIS TECHNOLOGY
CAN ASSURE CONTINOUS POWER SUPPLY.
 EFFICIENCY OF THE SYSTEM IS VERY HIGH WHEN
COMPARED TO OTHER RENEWABLE ENERGY SYSTEMS
 ENTIRE PROJECT IS ECO-FRIENDLY
 BIOMASS PRODCUTION & CONVERSION ACTIVITIES
STIMULATE LOCAL ECONOMICS BY PROVIDING
EMPLOYMENT OPPURTUNITIES

8.  DIFFERENT TYPES OF GASSIFIER AVAILABLE IN THE
MARKET
 SELECTION OF THE TECHNOLOGY MAINLY DEPENDS
ON THE TYPE OF FUEL USED, THE EQUIPMENT
SUPPLIER’S EXPERIENCE AND CREDIBILITY
 THE TECHNOLOGY IS USED FOR SEVERAL
APPLICATIONS SUCH AS WATER PUMPING, THERMAL
USAGE AND POWER GENERATION
 GREAT CHALLENGE FOR THE BUYERS TO IDENTIFY
THE RIGHT SUPPLIERS WHO HAVE REALLY MASTERED
THE TECHNOLOGY

9.  CAN BE DONE WITH MOST OF THE
BIOMASS INCLUDING RICE HUSK, COCONUT
SHELL, COCONUT HUSK, RICE STRAW,
SUGARCANE BAGASSE, SUGARCANE TRASH
ETC.
 GASIFICATION PLANT WITH DUAL FUEL
ENGINE (BIOMASS + DIESEL) IS ALSO
ANOTHER OPTION

10.  MANUFACTURERS
 RURAL WOMEN
 RURAL EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS

11.  MANUFACTURERS- EMPLOYMENT
OPPORTUNITIES
 RURAL WOMEN- AN ALTERNATIVE FOR LPG.
 RURAL EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS- LESS
DEPENDING UPON OTHER COOKING MEANS

12.  THE GASIFIER HELPS IN CONSERVING NON-
RENEWABLE ENERGY LIKE LPG, COAL ETC.
 REDUCES USAGE OF WOOD AS FUEL FOR
COOKING
 OTHER AGRO WASTES CN BE UTILIZED FOR
ENERGY PRODUCTION.

13. Strengths
DECENTRALISED; STRENGTHENS SELF-
RELIANCE; ENVIRONMENTALLY SOUND; LOCALLY
AVAILABLE FUEL; POTENTIALLY ADEQUATE TO
REPLACE FOSSIL FUELLED ENERGY CONVERSION

14. WEAKNESS
REPLICABILITY NOT YET PROVEN (LOW
VISIBILITY);
 CAPITAL COST MAY (CLAIMED) BE TOO HIGH;
FUEL DISPERSED; STANDARDIZATION OF
TECHNOLOGY PACKAGE WITH SERVICES, ETC

15. OPPORTUNITIES
COSTS ARE DECLINING; GESTATION PERIOD
LOW; POWER GENERATION COSTS LOWER THAN
FOSSIL FUEL SYSTEM; FOSSIL FUEL
SUBSTITUTION VERY HIGH; POTENTIAL VERY
HIGH; AVAILABLE FOR CONTINUOUS DUTY OPERATION

16. THREATS
POWER SECTOR REFORMS MAY UNDER
EMPHASIZE BIOMASS BASED SYSTEMS

17.  MORE ECONOMICAL FOR THE BOP SEGMENT
 AVAILABILITY
 ECO-FRIENDLY
 HELPS IN UTILIZING AGRO WASTES
