Abstract

Bidirectional business concept where both parties are seller and buyer at the same time is termed as chain business. No one dominates on other in a chain business, so everyone is benefited at the same time. In this paper, a biogas based chain business model is designed for a community of 500 families, where people sell various wastes (organic waste, cow dung and chicken manure) to biogas plant authority, in contrast buy electricity, cooking gas and bio-fertilizer at affordable price. The model is abstracted based on developing countries like Bangladesh and analyzed for rural community, although it is also applicable for developed countries. Proper electrification is still not satisfactory and natural gas for home application facilities are totally absent in rural areas of Bangladesh. Use of chemical fertilizers in agriculture causes serious environmental and health hazards. However, this model eventually ensures financial gain, electrification, biogas for homestead use, agricultural growth, proper waste management and therefore, sustainable development of rural community in the long run as well as economic benefit of the entrepreneurs.
