Now, cooking gas from kitchen waste
Bangalore, March 6 The machine, though, has the potential of revolutionising the fuel use in urban households by ridding them of the ubiquitous LPG cylinders. Set in the start mode by plugging it on to the electric supply, the machine can produce gas from any kind of organic waste. The machine will also be handy in rural areas where organic waste is found in abundance. However, electric supply may be problem in villages and manufacturers of the machine are contemplating installing a solar panel in it to get around the problem. “You can run it on newspapers also, besides vegetable peel or any other organic waste”, says Rajah Vijay Kumar, chairman of Scalene. He says householders will gradually get used to having the machine in their kitchen. “It can be put outside also, like the balcony of a flat, and gas can be brought to the kitchen through a pipe”, he says.
