Question

Which of the following is the correct full form of KVIC in the context of biogas plant models?

Options

• Kinetic Valve and Inlet Chamber

• Kitchen Ventilation and Industrial Combustion

• Khadi and Village Industries Commission

• Kumaon Village Industrial Center

Answer 1

KVIC stands for Khadi and Village Industries Commission, which developed the floating dome biogas plant model. This model features a gas holder that floats on the slurry and moves up and down with gas volume, maintaining constant gas pressure. The KVIC model is widely used across rural India but has a higher cost due to its steel dome construction.
