Goa Implements Decentralised Biodegradable Waste Processing in Bicholim
Goa is implementing a decentralised solid waste management model in Bicholim, focusing on processing biodegradable waste near its source using the Nisargruna Rapid Composting Technology developed by expert Sharad Kale. This method involves shredding segregated organic waste and treating it with a bacterial culture for rapid composting, producing organic manure within 24 to 48 hours. The approach aims to reduce transportation, lower emissions, improve hygiene, and complement existing waste infrastructure across various community and institutional settings.
