Wealth from Waste

Shakti Sustainable Energy Foundation, October 25, 2016

Rapid urbanisation and industrialisation and increasing household income are leading to higher waste volumes in India. The safe and effective disposal of this increasing level of waste generation is a key concern for authorities at local, state and government level. One way forward is the promotion of large-scale co-processing in the cement industry, and efforts to create a more conducive regulatory environment are in progress.
