Clean India Movement

Every day millions of people dispose their trash in the dustbin without giving a thought to the value associated to the trash that they just threw. It is estimated that New Delhi generates 12000 tons of waste on a daily basis, and only about 60% of this is collected, the rest is found lying in heaps on the streets becoming a source of livelihood for rag-pickers and food for stray animals. In our endeavour to turn Delhi into a world class city, we have forgotten the very basis principal of "Hygiene" and cleanliness.

The same food that was on our dinner plate and that we eagerly ate is now a sore site after our stomach is full! The same bottle of water that we bought from the super market is now trash after we quenched our thirst and is discard it in the bin or on the street. As citizens of India we must realize that the buck starts and stops with us. We as individuals have the capacity to bring change to our immediate surroundings and collectively to the whole nation. It is time that we come under an umbrella collectively and proceed in a direction that forces change on our political and administrative class.

Eco Wise Waste Management invites you to join the "Clean India Movement" where you can voice you opinion in a open forum, be a part of a collective community of like mined people with a voice that cannot be ignored, and help to bring positive change in your communities via engaging various government organizations in dialog!

About biomass and its potential

About biomass & its potential:


Photosynthetic activity around the world is estimated to store 17 times more energy as compared to annual consumption of energy by all nations of the world. Taking into account the energy required for collection, processing, and conversion of Bio-mass into useful forms, the complete energy need of the world can be met by bio mass, if managed and used effectively and sustainably.

Bio-mass is renewable organic matter in the process of photosynthesis by plants. In this process solar energy is combined with CO2 and moisture to form carbohydrates and oxygen. Any material constituting of combustible organic matter is referred to as Bio-mass. C, H and O which are oxygenated hydrocarbons are present in Bio-mass. Bio-mass generally contains a high level of moisture and volatile matter but has a low bulk density and calorific value.

Biomass can be classified into two sources: woody and non-woody. Agro crops, agro industry processing residue, municipal solid waste, animal and poultry waste all fall under the biomass classification as they are biodegradable in nature.
