Abstract

A study was conducted to evaluate performance of biogas plant in Sikar district of Rajasthan (India). Existing biogas plant constructed and commissioned to Biogas Development and Training Center, Udaipur in District Sikar were considered for the study. Out of total 1383 biogas plant constructed in District Sikar 60 biogas plants were selected on random basis. A questionnaire was prepared for the study. Out of selected 60 biogas plants, 54 plants were found operational or 6 plants were found non-operational due to migration of cattle. The bio-slurry is collected in a pit and used as manure once or twice in a year. Mostly Deenbandhu type biogas plants are installed.
