Bengaluru-based engineering firm, Steer World’s bioenergy division, netiBIO, has bagged the ‘Breakthrough Technology to Pre-Condition Biomass and Agri Residue for Value Creation in Bioenergy and Biofuels’ award at the 5th BBB International Expo and Summit 2026, held recently at IICC Yashobhoomi, New Delhi. The BBB International Expo and Summit is organised by the Indian Biogas Association alongside Indus Exposium and Reveille Energy.
The award recognises netiBIO’s work in addressing a core operational challenge facing India’s Compressed Biogas (CBG) sector: improving the digestibility and conversion efficiency of biomass and agricultural residue feedstock before anaerobic digestion.
As per the company, its pre-treatment technology is designed to improve feedstock processing efficiency and support higher biogas yield potential, with the capability to enhance yields by up to 2.1-times under suitable operating conditions.
“Improving biogas yield from existing biomass and agri residue is one of the most practical ways to strengthen the economics of CBG plants in India. This recognition means a great deal to our team, and it reinforces our focus on building pre-treatment solutions that are not just technically sound but operationally deployable at scale,” commented Mr, Nitin Gupta, Executive Director & Global CEO, Steer World.
netiBIO’s technology is aimed at enabling more effective utilisation of agricultural residue, improving feedstock processing efficiency, and supporting scalable waste-to-value operations for CBG plant operators across India. The solution is designed to integrate practically into existing plant workflows, supporting India’s broader push to scale up renewable biogas production.
