• Establish pilot plants at village level and helps the poor women in establishing small scale industries

CoE: 8 – Bio Energy

EXPECTED RESULTS

The centre will help in sustainable development of the technology, man power, economy and protection of environment.

1. Production of Bio-ethanol from organic waste materials.
2. The utilization of the Resources of waste from land and water for production of energy
3. The process will reduce land and water pollution
4. And maintaining of the clean environment
5. Developed technology can be used by people for development of small scale industries.
6. Improves the skilled persons for self employment 
7. Economy generating by exporting the ethanol/ and bi-products derived from the waste.
