The aim of this research work is to utilize the available poultry litter as a substitutional fuel in cogeneration power plant in the sugar factory. In India, tons of poultry litter is damaging the fields due to uncontrolled disposal of poultry litter as fertilizer. It also contributes to the emission of greenhouse gases namely methane and carbon dioxide thus polluting the atmosphere. About 100 tons per day manure can be collected which can be used as fuel source at the location selected. With this amount of fuel available, energy can be generated in the cogeneration power plant. ost feasible of this work that can be implemented in cogeneration power plant in sugar factory.
