Organic Recycling Systems' Catalyst Validated by SSS-NIBE, Potential to Increase Methane Production by 30%

Organic Recycling Systems Limited (ORS), a leading player in sustainable waste valorisation and Bio-energy sector, announced a significant milestone in advancing Compressed Biogas (CBG) technology. The MethanoBoost Catalyst (MBC) developed by ORS has been validated by the Sardar Swarn Singh- National Institute of Bio-Energy (SSS- NIBE) for its potential to enhance biomethane yield and process efficiency. The MBC is a proprietary catalyst designed to enhance biomethane yield & digestate enrichment in anaerobic digestion systems. Its advanced formulation, enriched with dispersed nanoparticles, facilitates in-situ CO, methanation, thereby boosting overall methane production. The breakthrough validation by SSS-NIBE marks a step forward in sustainable CBG production, where MBC, derived from biomass residues, acts as an accelerator to improve microbial activity and optimize bio-methane yield. Independent laboratory evaluations and subsequent pilot-scale trials by SSS-NIBE validated MBC's efficacy in enhancing biomethane generation. The MBC increases methane yield by up to 30%, while simultaneously improving process stability and substrate-to-biogas conversion efficiency. The dual impact-enhancing Biomethane yield and digestate enrichment- positions it as a transformative catalyst for integrated waste-to-Bioenergy and biofertilizer applications. Building on this validation, ORS is launching demonstration at select commercial CBG plants across India.
