Question

In Kunjpura village, located in Karnal district, Haryana, Aditya Aggarwal and his older brother Amit Aggarwal run Tee Cee Industries, a steel plant set up by their ancestors in 1984. Along with this, they also run a gaushala that houses 1,200 cows that can no longer produce milk. The cow shelter was manageable but running the steel plant was turning out to be expensive because they spent a whopping Rs 5 lakh every month on electricity. The brothers struck upon an idea. Why not run the factory with the biogas produced from cow dung from the shelter and other gaushalas, along with a bio and agri-waste like sewage, farm waste, etc. This led Aditya and Amit to start Amrit Fertilisers, a biogas project, in 2014, without any government support.

Options

• Animal dung

• Crop residue

• Food waste

• All of the above

Answer 1
