Bacteria Induced Aerobic Windrows Composting for SWM
I'd initially missed seeing the episode. Few of my facebook friends suggested that I see Satyameva Jayate's TV episode on Solid Waste Management. I saw it later in You Tube. Pritam Thakur of NKDA contacted Dr S R Maley and invited him to Kolkata. Dr Maley had appeared in the TV episode. After site visits, he met me, NKDA officers and, later, Minister Firhad Hakim. We learnt of the appropriate technology for Solid Waste Management (..."no magic-box complicated solutions", said Dr Maley...) was based on bacteria induced accelerated aerobic windrows under controlled conditions. I decided to send a small team of engineers (Abin De & Somnath Kundu of NKDA) to Navi Mumbai next week to see the process and take further action thereafter. Here is a photo of Dr Maley with us at Hidco:

ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI'm shreelakshmee from Bangalore. My friend and I are taking an initiate to process waste in the Mavallipura dumping ground. We have seen many deaths in that village. And now can't wait for local municipal to take action. In fact we are tired of running behind them. They do not give permanent solution.
After watching this episode, we are so happy that, we have still some how to clean up the mess around us.
We kindly request you to help us to get in touch with Dr.Maley. we would like to process/clean solid waste in the same bacteria technique.
Kindly help us. Pleaseeeee send me an email.
