Biogas from cow dung lights stoves of thirty families

Amid cylinder gas crisis and rising prices, young entrepreneur Sanjidul Islam has shown an alternative path in Damkhali union of Shariatpur's Bhedarganj upazila. He is producing biogas from cow dung and supplying fuel to thirty families through pipelines.

He established this plant in 2026 with an investment of about 11 lakh taka. Using nearly 3,000 kg of cow dung daily, the plant produces gas while the remaining waste is processed into organic fertilizer. Currently, his annual income from gas and fertilizer sales is about 10 lakh taka.

Local consumers expressed relief at receiving regular and low-cost gas. As this initiative reduces gas crisis and hassle, it has generated significant positive response in the area and inspired others.
