Often called a rotary screen, the trommel screen has become essential in waste management for separating recyclable and non-recyclable materials. From municipal waste facilities to recycling centres, it is widely used to efficiently sort plastics, metals, paper and organic matter. Its rotating drum separates materials by size, turning a once slow and labour-intensive task into […]

India generates over 160,000 tonnes of municipal solid waste every day, and this figure continues to rise with rapid urbanisation. Effective waste management depends on segregation, scientific collection, and robust treatment systems—making modern solid waste processing plants essential for cities across the country. Over time, these facilities have evolved into advanced, mechanised systems such as […]

India generates nearly 165,000 tonnes of solid waste every day, and about half of this is biodegradable. A significant share comes from bulk waste generators such as housing societies, hotels, hospitals, and large institutions. To manage this challenge, the government introduced the Solid Waste Management (SWM) Rules, 2016, which make it mandatory for bulk generators […]

Industrial growth has transformed India’s economy, but it has also created a serious challenge – managing industrial waste. Solid waste management in India is no longer limited to households and cities; industries are now major contributors to the growing waste stream. Every factory, processing unit, and manufacturing hub generates waste in different forms. Some of […]

In solid waste processing, mining, and recycling industries, trommel screening machines play a vital role in separating materials based on size. These machines, also known as rotary screens, consist of a cylindrical drum that rotates to move and filter materials. Understanding Trommel Screen Operation A trommel screen works by rotating a perforated drum at a […]

India’s urban landfills are more than just waste piles—they’re environmental and public health hazards occupying thousands of acres of valuable land. With over 2,400 legacy waste dumpsites holding 235 million+ metric tonnes of mixed waste, the Indian government has made biomining a national priority. What Is Biomining and Why Does It Matter? Biomining is the […]

Overflowing landfills, rising disposal costs, and mounting public pressure are forcing cities and organisations to rethink how waste is managed from the ground up. The old model of collect-and-dump simply doesn’t work anymore. To move forward, we need systems that don’t just manage waste — they prevent it, recover value from it, and reintegrate that […]

What are the 4 R’s of waste management, and why are they so essential in today’s world of overflowing landfills, limited resources, and rising environmental costs? The answer lies in four simple but powerful actions: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Recover. Whether you’re managing municipal waste, running a public-sector operation, or streamlining your company’s environmental footprint, […]

Imagine this: a thriving city, full of life and energy, but beneath its surface is an emerging issue—hills of trash accumulating in landfills, rivers filled with plastic, and air filled with the pungent odor of burning trash. This is not a dystopian nightmare; it’s the current reality for many cities. A waste management company plays […]

Imagine a place where the waste we discard today becomes the foundation for the innovations of tomorrow. In a world where waste generation is projected to grow by 70% by 2050, the question isn’t just how we manage waste, it’s how well. Municipal solid waste management (MSWM) is no longer about collecting and dumping garbage; […]
