In addition the social implications of the effect on health due to reduction of smoke in the cooking area, reduction of soot deposit on utensils and increased convenience were other reason, which promoted INRECA to take up this activity. It has come in to our notice that because of various reasons the most of the biogas plants have become out of order.
So, INRECA is conducting a detailed survey to find out the reason of getting defunct & massive repair Programme in order to revitalize the sick plants. As part of INRECA's research and development efforts it has designed and introduced as appropriate Biogas plant called Garbage Gas Manure Plant (GGMP) which is more suitable for this forest area were illegal cutting of trees is rampant and used as fuel wood. Secondly, being gas and organic manure. CGMP is well suited for use on a community basis e.g. Tribals Student Hostels, Ashramshala etc. INRECA has constructed three GGMP units for a government higher secondary school, Sagbara, B.R.S. College Thava and for the INRECA complex in Dediapada block of Bharuch district.
