Waste Management as Business Model

Objectives 

This course aims to generate interest among the interns in the field of waste management and equip them to develop workable business models

Programme Outcome

This program is intended to offer an opportunity to the interns to learn the basics of waste management with special reference to Waste Management Rules 2016, study various available technologies in recycling, energy recovery and deriving value added products from different types of waste and apply the same to create business models.

Overview

Waste Management is one of the most important subjects throughout the world as in many parts of the world; the once used resources are made unusable forever. But recent trends of effective waste management and recycling of wastes materials is bringing a new area of intervention of huge business. Our country generates more than 1.50 lakh metric tonne (MT) of municipal solid waste every day with a per capita waste generation of 300 g in the villages to 1.0 kg per day in metro cities. With USD 2.6 trillion GDP, India has increased the material consumption from 1.18 billion tons in 1970 to 7 billion tons in 2015, a six times growth. India can become a 5 trillion dollar economy in the next five years as has been said by the hon’ble Prime Minister on the 73rd independence day of India, 15 August 2019. The resource requirements in India are projected to be nearly15 billion tons by 2030 and around 25 billion tons by 2050. However due to recent pandemic outbreak of COVID 19, the growth may be affected in near future.

All wastes generated, namely, municipal and biomass wastes, electronic wastes, plastics waste, construction and demolition wastes, wastewater & sludge, in India can create a group of entrepreneurs adopting resource recovery and circular economy concept by developing business model. The processes involved are recycling of different waste to produce value added products, ethanol, biodiesel, composting, biomethanation, pyrolysis, coprocessing, etc.

The disposed waste is a conglomerated form of organic and inorganic waste. Segregation, recovery, reusing and recycling of waste from the lot is an uphill task for a layman. However, now emerging waste management companies are carrying out these operations effortlessly.  Utilizing and transforming the waste into a value-added product creates tremendous opportunity for business. Similar to the growing waste, the revenue in the waste management industry is also surging. As a result, many entrepreneurs have joined the waste management industry and are helping to create a positive outcome in our society.
