The so called #waste is one of the biggest issues in #urban India . Everyday tons of waste end up in landfills leaching toxins into the soil and methane into the air. At this rate, breathable air and fertile soil will soon become a premium.
The government spends Crores of rupees everyday for collection and disposal of this waste .
Thousands of people expose themselves to hazardous environments everyday to manage "our" waste .
The garbage trucks add to more pollution, disturbance and traffic on the road.
The waste we generate causes myriad problems for us and to the society everyday.
So what can be done to manage the waste ?
What we call waste is actually very rich in organic matter . This organic matter can be easily extracted to form usable methane . The by-product of this combustion/digestion process is super rich liquid manure .
A bio gas digester is just a drum where the waste is allowed to digest in the presence of heat . Methane is liberated in the process of digestion which can be used for cooking. By product of this process, a nutrient rich liquid manure can be used as a liquid manure.
In other words , a simple digester which is essentially a fiber or HDPE tank can solve the problem of waste, can cut or eliminate the dependency on LPG and provide free fertilizer for plants. That is ; We are addressing the air pollution, soil pollution and water pollution.
#decentralized #biogas plants, in my opinion is one of the simplest solutions for Waste management, Cclimate change and for #atmanirbharbharat .
Here is a demonstration of this simple , elegant and implementable solution. Infact , I got the leftover food from a relative to make the cooking gas for the next day.
If we are serious about climate change , what we need is serious work on the ground .
While we innovate new technologies, we must also make sure that existing technologies and simpler methods are also effectively implemented. Technology is not a panacea. Answer for every problem is not technology. Sometimes, unfortunately, I find the corollary true.
