My Business

We construct bio-gas digesters in which the decomposition take place, install the piping system for cooking purposes, source and install generators as per client specification for lighting and provide user education on feeding the digester and trouble shooting on the equipments. Most of the digesters are custom made since every client has different needs and applications.

This is an idea for utilizing what ordinarily is considered as waste to produce energy by decomposing the organic material in the absence of oxygen to produce methane gas which can burn directly as cooking gas or be burnt down by generator to produce electric current. The organic materials include but not limited to: animal waste, kitchen remains (food waste), degradable paper, grass, leaves. The kind of material used will determine the nature of the digester to be constricted.
I choose bee keeping since it does not demand much attention and hence will give me time to keep doing my bio gas business

Loan Proposal

I will be pleased to have my second loan and i will use it to buy fish pond lining for fish farming and fish seed. this will not only increase food security for the family but will be a source of income to compliment what we do in bio gas.
