Ranchi Municipal Corporation is all set to sign an MoU with Gas Authority of India Limited (GAIL) for the construction of two biomethanation units.
The MoU is reportedly being signed for a period of 22 years with two plants of 150 TOD capacity each.
The deputy municipal commissioner of RMC, Shankar Yadav, told The Times of India, “As per the arrangement with GAIL, the RMC will allot an eight-acre plot for setting up a plant near Jhiri village and the central PSU will invest the rest of the amount. After the plant gets commissioned, the plot will no longer be used as a dumping site.”
Yadav added that the project is likely to start by April this year and will take around 18 months to complete.
