MITIGATING GHG EMISSIONS BY THE PRODUCTION OF BIOGAS
Biogas is becoming a more well-liked alternative energy source in a growing energy crisis. Since the beginning of civilization, humans have utilized energy in many ways. Fossil fuels, which account for around 75% of the energy supply, produce most of the world’s energy. Humans may use various resources and expand their resource base because fossil fuels provide abundant, affordable energy. More fossil fuels are being consumed than can be produced by 100,000 times. The known reserves of oil, gas, and coal will be exhausted at the current pace of use in 35, 52, and 200 years, respectively. Therefore, it’s crucial to develop alternative energy sources, particularly in India’s rural areas where most people reside. One of the solutions that are efficient, affordable, and clean is a biogas plant. The demand for biogas has increased along with the demand for electricity. Numerous biogas plants have been installed by the municipality in both urban and rural regions. Soon, biogas will replace fossil fuels as the primary source of energy. Global warming and the greenhouse effect will both lessen in intensity during the next few years.
The best method to encourage more people to use biogas as we enter the twenty-first century will continue to be via awareness and education. The industrialized nations are developing innovative techniques for building better biogas facilities to suit the rising demand. Because of this project, people will be able to assist with the biogas plant and regard it as a better way to obtain energy; this will alter over the next few years. The majority of biogas contains methane, with smaller amounts of nitrogen, hydrogen, and hydrogen sulfide. A further 30%–40% of carbon dioxide is also present.
Sow and Reap Agro Pvt. Ltd. has collaborated with TRST01 as a digital measuring, reporting, and verification technology partner in order to strengthen its position as the industry leader in digitally tracking and measuring the production and consumption of biogas that use remote sensing to measure the amount of carbon stored in forests. By making use of the blockchain technology provided by TRST01, Sow and Reap is in a position to provide assistance to businesses in monitoring and determining the size of their respective carbon footprints. Acquiring carbon credits results in a reduction in emissions while also helping to compensate for those that cannot be prevented.
The benefits of using TRST01 Blockchain technology in biogas include meeting the Climate and Clean Air Coalition’s (CCAC) goal of reducing methane and other air pollutants. Furthermore, we can easily meet the Global Methane Pledge’s aim of lowering methane emissions by 30% by 2030.

It is a low-cost and simple technology that promotes a circular economy
Healthy Cooking Options for Developing Communities
Is biogas going to be the future’s fuel?
Biogas is one of our most potent weapons in the fight against climate change. As interest in carbon-neutral and renewable energy sources rises, more people are turning to sustainable energy sources, including biogas. The technology for producing biogas still requires additional research and financing, though. It’s likely that biogas will power our residential applications once a major industry catches the biogas bug. But as the availability and cost of fossil fuels decline, those who care about the environment and the economy are being forced to consider the benefits and drawbacks of this carbon-neutral fuel.
In the future, biogas might be utilized as a pipeline gas and as a vehicle fuel. The creation of biogas has also been shown to have less of an influence on wastewater pollution. Important nutrients like nitrogen and prosper are maintained during the production of biogas, enabling biogas effluents to be converted into viable agricultural fertilizer.
