Biogas Technology Limited, UK and MMRT Instrumentation Pvt.Ltd., India are proud to announce their Joint Venture Company Biogas Technology (India) Pvt. Ltd. for promoting and exploring opportunities in the coal mining industry in India.
Biogas Technology (India) Pvt. Ltd. was incorporated in July 2007 with its registered office at the following address:
Biogas Technology (India) Pvt. Ltd.
I-15, UPSIDC Industrial Area
Chinhat, Lucknow – 226 019 INDIA

The main objective of the Joint Venture Company is the promotion and exploration of project opportunities involving the capture of methane and its potential utilisation for power generation from active or abandoned coal mines. These projects would be developed under various Climate Change Mitigation schemes and the generated electricity would be sold locally.
Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas (GHG), 21 times more harmful than CO2 and its capture and destruction contributes towards the global effort for reduction of harmful emissions which contribute to climate change. Although harmful, methane is a valuable fuel source which can be utilised in various ways. If collected in sufficient quantity and of sufficient concentration, it can be used as a renewable fuel source for power (electricity) generation. More importantly the capture of methane, particularly in coal mines, creates a safe environment for the people working in and living in the vicinity of any such facility.
Schemes such as the CDM (Clean Development Mechanism) under the Kyoto Protocol and various other voluntary schemes promote the reduction of harmful emissions and have created an incentive for governments and companies to invest in technologies and processes to reduce, capture, utilise and control these harmful emissions. Verified reductions are measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent and are popularly called Carbon Credits. These Carbon Credits can be sold on various global emission reduction markets, thus creating revenues to incentives and aid the funding of such projects.
Biogas Technology Ltd. is a UK company dedicated to the development of CMM (Climate Change Mitigation) projects such as the collection and utilisation of methane from coal mines, landfill gas and anaerobic digestion under the above mentioned schemes. Biogas Technology has UK experience in collecting and utilising CMM (Coal Mine Methane) in active and abandoned UK mines and is also involved in the exploration of utilisation CBM (Coal Bed Methane) in the UK.

MMRT Instrumentation Pvt. Ltd.
MMRT Instrumentation Pvt. Ltd. provides a large number of products and services in the field of Geotechnical Instrumentation and structural monitoring. The MMRT Instrumentation Pvt. Ltd. was formally registered as a private limited company in 1999 and has completed several Dams, Mines, Undergrounds, Bridges, Barrages and Tunnels Instrumentation Projects in India (www.mmrtindia.com).
Biogas Technology (India) Pvt. Ltd. combines the expertise of both companies in their specific fields, enabling it to offer its technology, skills, and experience to the coal mining industry to promote and explore the described opportunities.
We started with export of complete hardware of sensors to OEM in USA and Canada and Gulf countries. The MMRT Instrumentation Pvt. Ltd. has launched a complete line of instruments for monitoring and field testing of soil and rock and concrete or steel structures. The measuring principals of instruments are based on vibrating wire, LVDT, hydraulic and mechanical. The instruments measure parameters such as pressure, bearing capacity, permeability, displacement, deformation and inclination.
These applications of instruments are for mainly in Dams, Tunnels, Bridges, Barrages, Nuclear Power Stations and Slopes. The dedicated group of engineers of all discipline of engineering is involved in different activities of the company now.
We are single source for every method of monitoring soil, rock and structures. We can supply a large range of standard products and also can work closely with customers to design and built-of-a kind products for special application. We own complete facility for monitoring & testing in house in our factory for each type of instruments. Our specifications of Vibrating Wire Instruments can be compared with international brand products.
MMRT Instrumentation Pvt. Ltd. also has a joint venture company known as MeSy (India) Pvt. Ltd. It is a successful joint venture company with MeSy GmbH, Germany, working since 8 years now, in the field of in-situ stress and permeability measurement. For more details please visit www.mesyindia.in.
