MEGA’s intention may be right. But no one will accept a biogas plant and a solid waste dumpsite at his back yard. Biogas plants produce large quantities of combustible and toxic gases like methane, CO2 and H2S which pose increased fire, explosion or asphyxiation hazards in case something gone wrong. In the event of an incident at the plant, damage to life, property and environment surrounding the plant is inevitable. Methane, a highly volatile and explosive gas needs such a stringent monitoring against leak, I think we would hardly able to do that. Keeping safety and health concerns in mind, I think it is wise to keep these projects much away from residential areas, preferably away from city limit.
