The purpose of this research paper is to present a framework for selecting a biogas plant for the Indian rural community, considering performability factors such as reliability, quality, maintainability, safety, and sustainability. This will ensure that the plant operates reliably, efficiently, and safely over its entire life cycle and can play a significant role as a decision-support tool for decision-makers (e.g., managers, engineers, stakeholders). The proposed framework integrates the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), and the Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment (WASPAS) to optimally evaluate and prioritize the best alternative based on performability factors. The findings show that the suitable biogas plant in the context of the Indian rural population is a fixed-dome-type plant. The decision-making process in selecting the best biogas plant can be effectively aided by using this suggested tool. Currently, there are no proper tools or methods for selecting biogas plants for rural areas due to a lack of data or relevant literature on operational issues. The proposed method uses performability factors for the selection, which has not been researched so far. Moreover, the AHP–WASPAS approach offers a robust method for selecting biogas plants, ensuring efficient and sustainable energy production. The proposed method will help policymakers and stakeholders to choose the best biogas plant in the context of Indian rural application.

“…Similar studies are limited in biogas production. For instance, performability analyses including reliability and safety assessments based on expert judgments were carried out for Arctic operations and offshore facilities [12,13]. Similar methods should be implemented for sustaining the operational safety of biogas plants.…”

“…Industrial activities in the Artic region had increased significantly, ranging from wind farms to oil and gas development. This region is often characterized as harsh and has severe climatic conditions and is environmentally sensitive [1][2][3]. Its infrastructure is less developed and far from any main industrial hubs.…”

“…Hence, a KHI would be chosen to be optimal for gas hydrate formation inhibition. The following are the summarized findings of the chemical method used in preventing hydrate formation (Table 1) based on Othman's [11] Additionally, Barabadi and Naseri [3] reported that in the Artic region or those that have similar operational conditions have the issue of having a lack of performability data that addressed the two performability concepts which include elements such as quality, safety and sustainability. The lack of data would make it difficult to optimize any operational procedure.…”

Amidated Pectic Polysaccharides (Pectin) as Methane Hydrate Inhibitor at Constant Cooling and Isobaric Condition

et al. 2023

This study aims to address the environmental impact of using common commercial hydrate inhibitors such as Methanol (MeOH) in extremely cold oil and gas environments. As a greener alternative, Pectic Polysaccharides (pectin) can act as a kinetic hydrate inhibitor (KHI) to delay hydrate formation. We evaluated the performance of amidated pectin (AMP), a type of pectin with higher electronegative functional groups, using a high-pressure micro-differential scanning calorimeter (HP µ-DSC) under isobaric conditions with constant cooling. We compared AMP to low-methoxylated pectin (LMP) and high-methoxylated pectin (HMP) and found that AMP was the best KHI among the tested pectin types. At a concentration of 1.0 wt.%, the AMP Relative Inhibitor Performance (RIP) was 0.10, and at 0.1 wt.%, it had an RIP of 0.07, which were the only positive RIPs obtained amongst the tested KHIs. The results suggest that AMP can be a sustainable KHI option in extremely cold environments where the KHI effectiveness typically declines.
