Introduction:
Biogas is an assemblage of gases which is derived through the process of practicing anaerobic digestion on organic matter. CNG can be produced from different feedstocks such as, agriculture residue, animal manure, municipal solid waste, plant biomass, sewage, green waste, and food waste. In this respect biogas is a renewable energy source which means that the possibilities are enormous. For instance, in Sweden, Switzerland, and Germany, a compressed kind of biogas has been widely used. Biogas finds extensive applications in digesters’ heating, cooking, space heating, water heating, and process heating. It can also be used for electricity production in sewage treatment plants by a CHP gas engine result of the process. When aggregated, the challenges above can be summarised as follows: In vehicle use, compressed biogas can replace compressed natural gas in vehicles, and power internal combustion engines or fuel cells for a more efficient reduction of carbon dioxide emissions as compared to the use of biogas in on-site CHP plants. Nevertheless, in the existing structure of the economic and technologies in Bangladesh, biogas is mainly adopted to prepare food, for heating or for illuminating the house or the small enterprises. That is why this limited application prevents the country from deriving the optimum benefits from biogas technology. Although Bangladesh people are not conversant with it or utilizing it, biogas generation is part of biomass power sector that entails generation of electricity through biomass like agricultural residues, food waste, gas from landfill site, and biogenic municipal waste. Biomass power is a well-developed industry all over the world and offers huge energy to the growth of countries such as Germany, Japan, China, South Korea, France, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Globally, the biogas industries contribute more than U. S $ 908 million with over 122 biotechnology firms which are registered and licensed in the United States alone.
In modern society, the necessity of using renewable and friendly powers is explained by the actual changes of the climate in the world. Starting a biogas business production in Bangladesh in particular has marked future as the nation indicates a considerable raw unexplored natural strength in the province and a high demand for renewable energy. It should also be noted that this industry fits well into the world’s transition to sustainable and climate change adaptation. The following are some reasons why biogas production is a worthy investment for potential business people and investors. Firstly, there is a valid demand for Decentralized mini-grids, for example, 64% of the population in Bangladesh lives in rural areas and has no access to electricity. The government of Banglaesh has laid down the policy of constructing power supply systems to increase the power supply coverage to 100 % of the total population and to involve private sector and implement such friendly policies relating to provision of power supply. The above factors make the business environment suitable for those who wish to venture into the biogas business bearing in mind that the barriers to entry are high here.
Furthermore, the biomass power industry which entails production of biogas is environment friendly and very lucrative. In this regard, the extent of biogas production in Bangladesh holds the possibility of a very promising future due to the ready supply of organic waste materials which can be used in making the biogases. It is additionally backed by the government as well as the need for clean energy resources enhances the appeal of this industry as well. There for developing a biogas business in Bangladesh can help in energy provision for the country and as well help in the country’s sustainability of environment . The prospects for expansion in the market related to this type of activity can be considered vast, having regard to the presence in the country of the necessary resources for the production of renewable energy and the gradual awakening of interest in this field. Being a serious business person, it is possible to look for the necessary amount of startup capital, including taking loans, as an effective way of entering this fast growing and potentially very profitable and socially useful industry.
