India's biomethane generation potential from wastes and the corresponding greenhouse gas emissions abatement possibilities under three end use scenarios: electricity generation, cooking, and road transport applications
Akashdeep Dey, R. Camilla Thomson
Abstract
Waste-to-biomethane generation can supply 47% of India's electricity, 91% of transportation fuels, or all cooking fuels, while removing between 284 and 524 million tonnes of carbon dioxide-equivalent of greenhouse gases.
