A Review of Organic Waste Generation and Its Management with Different Techniques
Abstract
The waste management is one of the major problems of developing countries like India. In olden days, the disposal of solid wastes did not pose a significant problem, because of the small population and the availability of large amount of land. The population rate of developing countries is very high and with growing population problem of waste disposal has been intensified. The municipal authorities find difficult to manage the solid waste particularly the organic waste due to its large quantity. India is a religious country and having more than 2 million of Hindu temples, 3 lacks of mosques, more than 400 Gurudwaras etc. The study shows more than 2.5 million religious places which generate tones of organic waste on daily basis which includes flowers, leaves, etc. This research study is an attempt to give a new approach for the management of organic material waste by extracting essence from the green waste by the plant extraction process (Hot Fermentation and Cold Fermentation). These processes results in economic utilization of waste as a resource and obtain the products having marketable value providing employment and profit.
