Abstract:
Due to intense fuel dependency on energy production in the world, cost of energy is now heavily
depends on the prices of fossil fuels. Most of the countries in the world are suffering due to this and Sri
Lanka is no exception. It is in this context promotion of biomass, as a renewable source, is so vital to
the country. Rice being the staple food of the country as well as the crop with highest land area under
cultivation, rice husk (RH) generated in paddy processing was found to have a significant potential in
power generation. Paddy Husks the byproduct of Rice which represents approximately 25,000,000 GJ
of raw energy content is however not currently harnessed for any useful purpose on a commercial
scale. With the advancement of biomass energy technologies, realistically, a good percentage of this
energy content could be harvested. In keeping with the above theme, the concept, design,
implementation and operation of a 2.5 MW power plant was constructed in Nintavur of eastern coastal
region and the power so generated is supplied to the national grid.Bio Energy Solution provides direct
employment for over 100 no of locals and 150 individuals indirectly from the vicinity of Nintavur and
is helping 120 no of Rice mills to dispose the paddy husks derived in the process of rice milling in an
economical beneficial manner. But research area people are continuously opposing this plant because
this plant emits pollutant into our air therefore there are occurring environmental pollution, ground
water level decreasing and health impacts. According to this problem we have decided to do a research
to identify the fact about this current issue. Our future power demand will be increase continuously so,
we cannot stop these plant activities bio energy is the important needs but we can minimize
environmental pollutants. So using Charcoal is a best way to infiltrate polluted air. And just send the
emission smoke through a water tank so that soot content in smoke is strapped by the water and after a
period of time water can be renewed in the tank. This kind of filtration is done in woodworking
industries situated in residential areas.
