One of the factors hindering setting up of a waste treatment/sorting and recycle plant is that the local Govt employees from the muncipal/council departments want a share/cut in the profits even before they pass the plans and policies on paper. They surely know waste is wealth.

The above article is very much interesting and useful to society. Can you please guide me in providing more information about the process for conversion of agricultural waste into organic fertilizer using bio-digesters. I am keen to establish a rural NGO to serve farmers & encourage them to do organic cultivation. Looking forward for your suggestions.

Removal of wastage is not only essential for the cleaning of our environment but for our own health related issues as well .

In reply to Piyush. Hello Piyush, the Okhla Timarpur plant in New Delhi has been generating energy from municipal wastes for the last 14 months. Yes, let us hope the rest of India follows. While hoping for more municipal solid waste to energy, we should remember that generating energy is required not for the technology sake, but for its ability to solve India's garbage problem. Thank you for stopping by

Your work on waste to energy is very informative and I liked your report on Solid Waste Management in India, which provide the details study of the total waste generated from India…. Hope to see India soon generating energy from waste.

There is no doubt India’s waste management challenges are real and bellowing. Various players have to play proactive roles in their respective areas and see to it that the menace that the waste poses is dealt with efficiently and firmly. Recyclables, organic, construction and demolition debris (a real threat to the landfills), non-recyclables, etc. are handled in meaningful ways while keeping the cardinal principle in mind – Reduce, Recycle, Reuse. Threats from thermocol, thin, multilayer and metallized plastic films, construction and demolition debris can be met evenly by converting them to useful products for burgeoning construction sector – building homes for the homeless millions! We have done some efforts and taken steps to implement light weight brick/block project on a small scale.
