Organic waste management is the collection, transport, processing or disposal, managing and monitoring of organic waste materials. The term usually relates to materials produced by human activity, and the process is generally undertaken to reduce their effect on health, the environment or aesthetics. Waste management is a distinct practice from resource recovery which focuses on delaying the rate of consumption of natural resources. All wastes materials, whether they are solid, liquid, gaseous or radioactive fall within the remit of waste management
Organic waste management practices can differ for developed and developing nations, for urban and rural areas, and for residential and industrial producers. Management for non-hazardous waste residential and institutional waste in metropolitan areas is usually the responsibility of local government authorities, while management for non-hazardous commercial and industrial waste is usually the responsibility of the generator subject to local, national or international controls.
Waste can be regarded as a human concept as there appears to be no such thing as waste in nature. The waste products created by a natural process or organism quickly becomes the raw products used by other processes and organisms.
Recycling is predominant, therefore production and decomposition are well balanced and nutrient cycles continuously support the next cycles of production. This is the so-called circle of life and is a strategy clearly related to ensuring stability and sustainability in natural systems. On the other hand there are man-made systems which emphasize the economic value of materials and energy, and where production and consumption are the dominant economic activities. Such systems tend to be highly destructive of the environment as they require massive consumption of natural capital and energy, return the end product (waste) to the environment in a form that damages the environment and require more natural capital be consumed in order to feed the system. Where resources and space are finite (the Earth is not getting any bigger) this is ultimately not sustainable.
The presence of waste is an indication of overconsumption and that materials are not being used efficiently. This is carelessly reducing the Earths capacity to supply new raw materials in the future. The capacity of the natural environment to absorb and process these materials is also under stress. Valuable resources in the form of matter and energy are lost during waste disposal, requiring that a greater burden be placed on ecosystems to provide these. The main problem is the sheer volume of waste being produced and how we deal with it
The document discusses solid waste management challenges in Pakistan. It notes that solid waste generation is growing at 2.4% annually and averages 0.61 kg/person/day in cities. Food waste makes up 21.7% of solid waste composition on average. Most waste is improperly disposed through open dumping or burning. Only 52-69% of waste is collected in cities. The government aims to improve management through policies and a hospital waste plan, but more regulations and programs are still needed, especially in smaller towns. One example project piloted participatory management in a town through community organization, education, and improved collection infrastructure.

Zero Waste Management for Schools: A module prepared by Prof. Liwayway Memije...Liwayway Memije-Cruz
RATIONALE: ZERO WASTE MANAGEMENT PROJECT
One of the more serious problems that our country and our university in particular encounter nowadays is pollution which is due to improper handling and disposal of solid wastes. This problem occurs not only in urban areas where population density is high and human activities are continuous and intense but is also felt in the regional and rural areas.
In Metro Manila, the population density is 14,440 persons per square kilometer, 63 times more than the national average. Per capita waste production daily is estimated at 0.66 kg. More than half a kilo of trash per person per day is a lot. The volume of daily wastes weights in a little over 6,000 tons. Only 85% of these wastes are collected. Uncollected wastes pile up and fester in street corners and marketplaces, vacant lots and other open (often unauthorized) dumpsites. Ubiquitous scavengers light into these waste piles to pick whatever they can salvage from the junk. These waste materials are the breeding ground of flies, mosquitoes, rats, and other manner of pests and disease-carrying organisms.
An irreducible amount of waste also finds its way into bodies of water, into ditches, storm drains, and sewer mains. This does not only contaminate and pollute our waters; come the rainy season, garbage plugs up the city’ sewerage and flood waters rise-causing untold damages to life and property. Common sense tells us that the most cost-effective way of managing waste is to do something at the source generation, that is, at home, at the office or at the institutional level.

Municipal solid waste management of gwalior, m.p., indiaNiladri Roy
The document summarizes a study on municipal solid waste management in Gwalior, India. It discusses that waste management is conducted in two steps by the Gwalior Municipality and a private company. The municipality collects waste and dumps it, while the company then segregates recyclables, composts biodegradable waste, and sends the outputs to appropriate sectors. The study observed issues like irregular collection, open dumping, and lack of awareness. It recommends improving workers, attention to sensitive areas, awareness programs, and following a waste management hierarchy.
Pratima Pandey, an economics expert in solid waste management, gave a presentation on the importance and methods of waste management. She explained that waste is an inevitable byproduct of modern life and that India mismanages about 80% of its waste by dumping or burning it untreated, which leads to various environmental and health issues. Some effective waste management methods include segregating waste, composting wet waste, recycling and upcycling dry waste, and using alternatives for e-waste and sanitary waste. Proper waste management requires effort, money, and community involvement but has important benefits.
This proposal discusses solid waste management in three key areas:

Knowing the advantages and benefits of proper waste managementNicholasMcCull2
Proper waste management provides environmental, health, and financial benefits. Environmentally, segregating recyclable and non-recyclable waste promotes sustainability and generates income from compost sales. For health, old waste incineration methods emit harmful substances, but modern disposal and burning techniques lower disease risks. Financially, waste management is now an industry that generates further income through compost and recycling.
Solid waste management in Shanghai faces several challenges. Shanghai generates over 7 million tons of municipal solid waste per year and over 24 million tons of industrial solid waste. It employs various methods to manage this waste, including landfills, incineration, and recycling. However, challenges remain due to rapid urbanization and population growth, which increase waste generation. Shanghai also struggles with inadequate waste infrastructure and a lack of incentives for residents to reduce waste. Officials are working to address these challenges and build Shanghai into a more sustainable city.
The Zero Waste Philippines Project envisions eliminating the concept of waste and reusing and revaluing all materials.

The solid waste management term deals with collection and treating and disposal of the solid waste. Day by day the quantity of waste generation is increasing rapidly. Creation of waste is natural by human being but being human it needs proper disposal .The solid waste is ugly in appearance , creates foul odor , creates nuisance and ultimately creates unhygienic conditions Improper management of solid waste leads to unhygienic conditions which results in spread of diseases Nobody wants to discuss and care about solid waste . We should come forward for the discussions and finding appropriate solution for proper and effective management of the waste nowadays it is a duty of everybody to monitor the rate of generation of waste. Not only the concerned local body should be responsible for waste management, but it is our responsibility too .We may contribute in minimizing the waste. So to prevent the public health it is necessary to start the waste management from own. This article discusses the origin, varieties ,per capita generation of the waste , role of individual and proper management of the waste .Coordination of local bodie ,social organizations and the public will result in proper management of the waste and helps in achieving the goals like clean city, smart city, and ‘Swachcha Bharat’.

The document provides case studies and recommendations for policies to mandate adopting these sustainable practices within gated communities in India.
IRJET- Sustainable Approach for Development of an EcocityIRJET Journal
This document discusses developing an eco-city in India through sustainable waste management. It analyzes the current solid waste management process and issues in India. The key points are:
1) India's increasing urbanization is leading to higher waste generation and unsustainability. The eco-city concept aims to create more sustainable cities through principles like renewable energy, green spaces, and efficient resource use.
2) Hoshangabad, India is proposed as a study area. It currently faces waste management problems like improper segregation and landfill dumping.
3) The document outlines the steps in solid waste management according to Indian laws - generation, segregation, collection, transportation, treatment, and disposal. It aims to
Municipal solid waste: A strategic resource sajjalp
A largely rural country, with only 18% of the population living in urban areas, Nepal is urbanizing rapidly with urban population growth rates of up to 7%. With a population growth rate of about 4% per year, the municipalities of Kathmandu Valley are facing the unprecedented challenges of rapid urbanization and modernization on a metropolitan scale. The average rate of municipal solid waste (MSW) generation is 341.63 gm per capita per day in five municipalities (Kathmandu, Lalitpur, Bhaktapur, Thimi and Kirtipur) of Kathmandu Valley. The increasing and unmanageable waste volume is a major concern for all the municipalities. In Kathmandu Valley most of the MSW is land-filled, leading to a significant pressure on the environment. The truth is very little is recycled. In this paper, the basic indicators of MSW are analyzed: generation per capita per day, total waste generation, and waste generation from household, commercial and institutional activities etc. The municipalities of Kathmandu valley are focusing on sweeping the street,
collecting and transferring the waste to the landfill rather than minimizing the waste. The important priorities to consider MSW as a strategic resource are: reduction of waste at source, re-use, compost, recycle and recovery which will minimize the disposal volume and increase the life of landfill.
KEY WORDS: Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), waste generation, resource, recycling
Solid Waste Management on slide share.pptAmritaDaripa3
This document summarizes solid waste management initiatives in India. It notes that India produces around 42 million tons of municipal solid waste annually, with urban populations generating around 1.15 lakh metric tons per day. The composition of Indian solid waste includes 30-55% biodegradable matter, 40-55% inert matter, and 5-15% recyclables. It also discusses key government policies and initiatives around solid waste management in India like the Swachh Bharat Mission and opportunities for innovation in areas like smart waste management and public-private partnerships.
RECYCLING SIGNIFICANCE OF WASTE MANAGEMENTIRJET Journal
This document summarizes the significance of waste management and recycling in addressing issues caused by improper waste disposal. It discusses how rapid urbanization and population growth have increased solid waste generation, posing risks to the environment and public health. The document then reviews waste management policies and initiatives in India, highlighting the importance of proper collection, transportation, treatment and disposal of waste. It also provides examples of sustainable waste management practices in Indore, India, including segregated waste collection, transportation to transfer stations, and recommendations to promote reduce, reuse and recycling.
A Case Study on Solid Waste Management in Rural Areas: Findings & Suggestions...IRJET Journal
This document presents a case study on solid waste management practices in the rural village of Jajankhedi, India. It finds that the village currently lacks a proper waste collection and disposal system. Through sampling households, it determines that organic waste makes up the largest percentage of waste generated. Given this, it proposes implementing vermicomposting - using worms to break down organic waste into nutrient-rich manure. This would allow for productive use of the significant organic waste while generating revenue for the local government. The study concludes vermicomposting is well-suited for the village as it provides a sustainable and higher quality compost option than other technologies.
Solid Waste Management in Gazipur, Bangladesha989work
This study examined the behaviors and practices around household solid waste management among microcredit borrowers in two urban areas of Gazipur, Bangladesh. Through surveys and focus groups, the researchers analyzed participants' knowledge, attitudes, intentions, and practices regarding waste management, and how socioeconomic factors influence these. While most participants understood the health and economic benefits of proper waste management, their behaviors did not consistently reflect this. Higher education and income were associated with better waste management practices. However, additional income from microcredit loans was not being used to improve household waste management. Improving waste management in these areas will require incentives or systemic changes beyond just providing additional income.
This document discusses sustainable solid waste management approaches for Gwalior City, India. It provides background on the current waste management challenges faced by many Indian cities due to rapid urbanization. The document then focuses on Gwalior City, analyzing its current municipal solid waste generation of 418 metric tonnes per day. It describes Gwalior's existing waste collection, storage and transportation system, identifying problems like inadequate waste segregation, collection vehicle shortages, and improper waste disposal. The document advocates for a more sustainable decentralized waste management system for Gwalior to address these issues and move toward goals like waste minimization and zero landfill.
Management of solid waste is a major challenge now a days because of industrialization, population and urbanization so that the rate of solid waste is increases. Waste generation creates a problem to environment as well as public health. To minimize this problems proper collection, storage and disposal are important. This paper is review of waste management, it's element and disposal method of waste. Reduce, reuse, recycle this three principal helps for the waste management.

IRJET- A Comprehensive Study of Solid Waste Management in Mangalore City-Case...IRJET Journal
This document summarizes a study on solid waste management in Mangalore City, India. It finds that Mangalore generates approximately 226 tons of solid waste per day, with per capita waste generation of 0.4524 kg per day and household per capita generation of 0.2095 kg per day. Though generation levels are not alarming, waste management practices need improvement. Currently there is some segregation, door-to-door collection, and processing via windrow composting and vermicomposting. However, most waste is ultimately landfilled. The study calls for better segregation, collection, and use of decentralized waste-to-energy technologies to reduce burden on landfills and improve sustainability of Mangalore's solid waste
IRJET- Solid Waste Management Efficiency in Kabul CityIRJET Journal
This document summarizes a study on solid waste management efficiency in Kabul City, Afghanistan. The study used mixed quantitative and qualitative methods, including surveys of 380 households in District 7 and 375 households in District 10. The results showed that the majority of respondents felt the municipality's waste management was ineffective and services were insufficient. Over 72% noted a lack of public awareness programs. More than 56% said residents participate in waste management. The study concluded that improving efficiency requires reducing waste, increasing awareness, private sector involvement, and new technologies. It was suggested to develop a strategic plan with short and long-term goals to guide sustainable waste management.
SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT IN GWALIOR REGION: AN OVERVIEWadway tiwari
This document provides an overview of solid waste management in the city of Gwalior, India. It discusses the types and amounts of solid waste produced in Gwalior daily, as well as the common practices for disposal which include open dumping that creates public health and environmental issues. The document also reviews literature on solid waste management in other Indian cities and the key factors that affect waste management systems, such as various stakeholders, education, funding, and reliable data. It concludes that improved waste management is needed in Gwalior to better handle the increasing amounts of waste generated and adopt more sustainable practices.
Solid Waste Management in Gwalior Region: An OverviewIRJET Journal
This document provides an overview of solid waste management practices in Gwalior, India. It finds that Gwalior produces about 380 tons of solid waste per day, 80% of which is collected from pickup points. The waste consists mainly of biodegradable materials like food, paper, wood, and plastics. Currently, 90% of the waste is disposed of through unscientific, open dumping which poses public health and environmental problems. The document evaluates different waste management options for Gwalior and finds that capturing energy from the city's organic waste, which makes up 55% of the total, could provide renewable energy through technologies like incineration, pyrolysis, and anaerobic digestion.
The document discusses the future challenges and opportunities in solid waste management. Some of the key challenges mentioned are increasing waste quantities and changing compositions due to population growth and changing lifestyles, increasing environmental and health impacts of improper waste management, and rising costs of waste management due to more complex technologies needed. Limited policy frameworks and lack of political priority for waste management are also issues. However, the document notes that waste management also presents opportunities like waste minimization, energy and material recovery from waste becoming more viable, and potential for private sector involvement and job creation through recycling industries.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

7. Meaning
Organic Waste Management
Organic waste management is the collection, transport, processing or disposal, managing
and monitoring of organic waste materials. The term usually relates to materials produced
by human activity, and the process is generally undertaken to reduce their effect on
health, the environment or aesthetics. Waste management is a distinct practice from
resource recovery which focuses on delaying the rate of consumption of natural
resources. All wastes materials, whether they are solid, liquid, gaseous or radioactive fall
within the remit of waste management
Organic waste management practices can differ for developed and developing nations,
for urban and rural areas, and for residential and industrial producers. Management for
non-hazardous waste residential and institutional waste in metropolitan areas is usually
the responsibility of local government authorities, while management for non-hazardous
commercial and industrial waste is usually the responsibility of the generator subject to
local, national or international controls.

8. Waste can be regarded as a human concept as there appears to be no such thing as waste
in nature. The waste products created by a natural process or organism quickly becomes
the raw products used by other processes and organisms.
Recycling is predominant, therefore production and decomposition are well balanced and
nutrient cycles continuously support the next cycles of production. This is the so-called
circle of life and is a strategy clearly related to ensuring stability and sustainability in
natural systems. On the other hand there are man-made systems which emphasize the
economic value of materials and energy, and where production and consumption are the
dominant economic activities. Such systems tend to be highly destructive of the
environment as they require massive consumption of natural capital and energy, return
the end product (waste) to the environment in a form that damages the environment and
require more natural capital be consumed in order to feed the system. Where resources
and space are finite (the Earth is not getting any bigger) this is ultimately not sustainable.
The presence of waste is an indication of overconsumption and that materials are not
being used efficiently. This is carelessly reducing the Earths capacity to supply new raw
materials in the future. The capacity of the natural environment to absorb and process
these materials is also under stress. Valuable resources in the form of matter and energy
are lost during waste disposal, requiring that a greater burden be placed on ecosystems to
provide these. The main problem is the sheer volume of waste being produced and how
we deal with it

9. International Market of Organic Waste Management
The amount of rubbish generated by city dwellers is set to rise steeply in the next two
decades, with much of the increase coming in fast-growing cities in developing countries,
according to a World Bank report published on Wednesday.
The report, What a Waste: a global review of solid waste management, for the first time
provides data on municipal solid waste generation, collection, composition and disposal
by country and by region.
The amount of municipal solid waste is growing fastest in China – which overtook the
US as the world's largest waste generator in 2004 – other parts of east Asia, and parts of
eastern Europe and the Middle East, the report says. Growth rates for rubbish in these
areas are similar to their rates for urbanisation and increases in GDP.
The report estimates the amount of municipal solid waste will rise from the current 1.3bn
tonnes a year to 2.2bn by 2025. The annual cost of solid waste management is projected
to rise from $205bn to $375bn, with cost increasing most sharply in poorer countries.

10. National Market of Organic Waste Management
India is the second largest nation in the world, with a population of 1.21 billion,
accounting for nearly 18% of world‟s human population, but it does not have enough
resources or adequate systems in place to treat its solid wastes. Its urban population grew
at a rate of 31.8% during the last decade to 377 million, which is greater than the entire
population of US, the third largest country in the world. India is facing a sharp contrast
between its increasing urban population and available services and resources. Solid waste
management (SWM) is one such service where India has an enormous gap to fill. Proper
municipal solid waste (MSW) disposal systems to address the burgeoning amount of
wastes are absent. The current SWM services are inefficient, incur heavy expenditure and
are so low as to be a potential threat to the public health and environmental quality.
Improper solid waste management deteriorates public health, causes environmental
pollution, accelerates natural resources degradation, causes climate change and greatly
impacts the quality of life of citizens.

11. Waste Generation Rate & Quantity
The per capita waste generation rate in India has increased from 0.44 kg/day in 2001 to
0.5 kg/day in 2011, fuelled by changing lifestyles and increased purchasing power of
urban Indians. Urban population growth and increase in per capita waste generation have
resulted in a 50% increase in the waste generated by Indian cities within only a decade
since 2001. There are 53 cities in India with a million plus population, which together
generate 86,000 TPD (31.5 million tons per year) of MSW at a per capita waste
generation rate of 500 grams/day. The total MSW generated in urban India is estimated to
be 68.8 million tons per year (TPY) or 188,500 tons per day (TPD) of MSW. Such a
steep increase in waste generation within a decade has severed the stress on all available
natural, infrastructural and budgetary resources.
Between 21% and 40% (by weight) of municipal solid waste in Developing Countries is
organic, increasing to up to 45% if you include paper and cardboard. If the soil
component of this waste is included, more than half the waste sent to landfill can be used
as a growing media for plants. Considering the investment that went into creating the
organic waste (and the nutrients and energy contained in it) this is too valuable a resource
to simply throw away. However, organic waste sent to a landfill rots under anaerobic
(without oxygen) conditions, giving off methane gas. Methane is one of the 'greenhouse
gases' that trap heat in the atmosphere, contributing to climate change. Methane is
particularly bad in that weight for weight it traps 21 times more heat than carbon dioxide.
While garden waste can be shredded or chipped for use as mulch and compost, food
waste is putrescible (it becomes smelly) and attracts pests like rats and flies if it is left to
rot. In order to prevent potential health and environmental problems, food waste is
generally taken to landfills and buried or to fed to pigs. Feeding kitchen waste to pigs is
not an ideal solution to food waste as this practice can promote the spread of swine fever,
parasites and pathogens.

14. Brand
Brands are often thought of as a single message, logo, or slogan; however a brand can be
much more. A brand encompasses these tangible attributes, along with consumer
interactions, and public relations. In short, a brand is the sum total of every experience
people, consumers, clients, and target populations have with a company/organization,
their products and services for consumers
Literature gives several definitions of the term “brand”.
“The common themes are that a brand is more than just a combination of a name, a
design, a symbol or other features that differentiate a good or a service from others.”-
Dibb 1997
“It is a unique set of tangible and intangible added values that are perceived and valued
by the customer. In addition a brand is said to have personality, an emotional bond to the
customer that grows out of the perceived characteristics.” - McDowell Mudambi 1997.
According to the American Marketing Association, a brand is a name, term, sign, symbol,
or design, or a combination of these intended to identify goods or services of a supplier or
group of suppliers1. A brand identifies the suppliers‟ implicit values, ideas, and even
personality. It serves to create impressions that can be associated with a product or
service, as well as expectations of certain qualities or characteristics that make it unique.
Branding combines elements of marketing and advertising. Marketing and advertising
demonstrate what the brand owner is able to offer to the marketplace, consumers and
target populations.
These certain features of a brand grow out of a complex set of added values that can
comprise of history and tradition, additional services, marketing messages, quality,
popularity of the product amongst a certain group of users (status) and others. These
basis‟s of a brand perception prove that a strong brand cannot be established overnight,
The development of a brand takes time, strong financial marketing muscle and good
marketing skills such as
- Insight into customer needs,
- Ability to offer products or services that meet those needs,
- Creativity to produce exiting and compelling advertising,
- Ability to communicate differentiation in a way that customers understand and that
14
motivates them.

Without this process you do not have a brand but only a name and a sign for a product.

15. Branding provides the means through which they can make choices and judgments about
products or services. For example, when shopping for laundry detergent or purchasing
coffee, consumers are more likely to select a more expensive, popular brand such as Tide
detergent or Starbucks coffee, on the basis of the perceived quality of the brand and the
reputation of the brand owner. Therefore, to successfully brand a product or service, it is
important to remember that branding is not what we do to the product or service, it is how
it is perceived by the mind of the consumer.
Benefits of a brand for
Sellers Customers
Identifies the company‟sproducts, makes Helps identify products
repeat purchases easier
Facilitates promotion efforts Helps evaluate the quality of a product
Fosters brand loyalty – stabilises market Helps to reduce perceived risk in buying,
share provides assurance of quality, reliability

16. With this potential a brand can offer an important competitive advantage for a seller who
has decided for a differentiation strategy. Even in markets with many similar products or
services a brand can provide some sort of uniqueness to a certain product. Depending
from the strength of a brand the branded product thus can be positioned towards a more
monopolistic situation.
With all these characteristics a brand is important in an organisations marketing mix.
Although it is basically a certain feature of the category “product”, it influences every
component of the marketing mix:
- The product gets a higher value in the perception of the customers.
- This influences the pricing policy in the way that often a premium can be charged.
- The promotional strategy and mix will be different because it is more focused on the
brand than on the individual product. For instance the introduction of a new product
under a well-established umbrella brand requires a very different promotion campaign
than the introduction of a new brand or an unbranded product. The decision for the place
and the marketing channel is influenced because a branded product with a higher
perceived value might be placed in an environment that is well related to the brands
personality.

17. BRANDING STRATEGY
Developing a brand and branding first begins with the brand decision, to brand or not to
brand. Branding is such a strong force that hardly anything goes unbranded, including
salt, oranges, nuts, maid services, computer repair, and a growing number other products
and services. Once an organization decides to brand they should begin to think about
developing a branding strategy, which includes:
• a branding approach; • market assessment; • creating a brand name;• defining who they
are; and • outreach, promotion, and education.
BRANDING APPROACH
A company‟s branding approach identifies how they would choose to identify and
introduce their product or services. There are five distinct branding approaches
organizations use, which include:-
Line extensions (new product or service launched under an existing brand name);
-Line extensions include: Coke: Diet Coke, Coke Zero, and Cherry Coke.
Brand extensions (brand names extended to new- product categories);
-Brand extensions include: Honda automobiles, motorcycles, snow blower, mopeds, and
lawnmowers.

MARKET ASSESSMENT
17 | P a g e
18. A market assessment is a process of gathering, analyzing, and interpreting information
about a market; about a product or service to be offered in that market; and about
consumers and partners for the product or service. Market assessment can provide
valuable information, such as consumers‟ behavior, portals of access for services
frequently sought, and what consumers know and/or think about the brand. Additionally,
it can help determine who your product or service affects and how it affects them.
Assessment helps develop brand names and unique selling propositions, identify potential
partners, networks, and intermediaries that can add value to their brand, and develop
promotional marketing strategies. Gathering information can be accomplished through
surveys, interviews, focus groups, and observations, or a combination of these methods.
CREATING A BRAND NAME
Creating a brand name that resonates with consumers is critical to successful branding.
The more generic the name the greater the likelihood the product or service will not reach
and maintain brand status. When selecting a brand name it is important to be aware that
common descriptive words are typically more desirable than scientific or “catchy” terms.
Ideally brand names should be short, easy to pronounce, memorable, and descriptive of
the function of the product or service. They should not be associated with negative
connotations in any language. Brand names should be usable and protected by trademark
claim and or registration. So, that the brand may be promoted in the future. Brand names
should be understood by the target audience, and be unique - not used by or confusingly
similar to other entities.

DEFINING WHO YOU ARE
Another recommended step for a branding strategy is to define who you are and what you
are experts at, a company‟s “hedgehog concept”. A hedgehog concept reflects what a
company is deeply passionate about, what they can be the best at, and what drives their
resource engine (e.g., time, money, brand).
Consumer ease of access, hands on assistance, and efficient and timeless assistance. This
brand value determines the brand‟s unique selling proposition. Sometimes referred to as a
slogan or tagline, a unique selling proposition is a verbal statement that reinforces the
brand. It is the bridge that connects the consumer want or need to the product or service.
To be valid, a unique selling proposition must make a proposition to the consumer – buy
or use this product or service and it will meet this specific need or want. Ideally, it
should answer a specific need or want revealed through a market assessment. The
proposition must be one that similar services either cannot or do not offer. It must be
unique, either a uniqueness of the product or service, or a claim not already being made.
The proposition should not convey any potentially negative connotations, and should be
easy to pronounce, be memorable and understood by the audience.
OUTREACH, PROMOTION, AND EDUCATION
Outreach, promotion, and education play key roles in developing a branding strategy,
because they give organizations the opportunity raise the awareness of their services and
programs. One of the many challenges and failures of branding strategies is
inconsistencies in what a brand aspires to be and what communities, partners, consumers,
and target populations believe about the products and services. On many occasions
consumers are unaware of public and community services. A critical group needs to19
educate it‟s potential partners and intermediaries, specifically those who can help build
19
and strengthen credibility and brand. Establishing a credible relationship with partners
Page
can be viewed as a positive among your target populations. Educating partners will help
19 | P a g e
20. raise the awareness and acceptance and can demystify the assumptions partners may have
about a company as a perceived threat or duplication of services. It would also help
educate consumers who are hesitant to seek your services or those who have in the past
had frustrating experiences with long-term care services and systems.
Reasons for branding services
Although the principles for branding of goods and services are generally the same there
occur some differences. These arise from the different natures of both categories. The
main differences that influence branding policies are that services :-
-have a changing level of quality,
-the consumer has to become involved in the consumption of a service actively,
-they are intangible and not storable.
When a brand in general gives the consumer more confidence in his choice this is even
more important for services. Their quality and other features are more difficult to assess.
Because of their intangibility and complexity it is harder for the customer to distinguish
between the offers from the wide range of service companies operating in the market
place.
Branding is increasingly important in helping them to choose where to get a service.
They want to be able to tell who is good at what.

26. WORKING:
The entire process is natural & biological. The decomposition is done by microbes /
microorganisms, called “Acidulo” which are our patented microorganisms. These
microbes thrive in high temperature and even in high acidic or salty atmosphere as well.
When Food Waste is put from above, moisture is sensed below & the tank is heated from
below. Due to this water content in food waste is evaporated and goes out to the
atmosphere as water vapor through deodorizer. Due to passing through the deodorizer
there is no odor.
As any food waste contains 75-80% moisture we achieve an 80% volume reduction due
to evaporation.
After that the microbes are then activated due to high temperature & they decompose the
remaining food. That‟s how we achieve a volume reduction of 95% i.e 100% waste to
5% compost
There is no crushing or grinding & it is 100% natural process. The blades are only for
stirring. Due to this it is noiseless.

33. Conclusion
Clearly, more appropriate and sustainable approaches to waste need to be adopted. To be
sustainable we need to move the emphasis toward a system that is local, community
based makes use of low tech / low energy systems and is focused on waste minimization.
This is an approach which we at Full Cycle advocate.
Other methods of managing waste include:
Waste minimization is an approach that aims to reduce the production of waste through
education and the adoption of improved production processes and less wasteful practices.
Recycling by separating certain materials within the waste stream and reprocessing them.
The recycling of many materials is currently not financially viable.
Waste processing is treatment and recovery (use) of materials or energy from waste
through thermal, chemical, or biological means.

34. The present citizens of India are living during times of unprecedented economic growth,
rising aspirations, and rapidly changing lifestyles, which will raise the expectations on
public health and quality of life. Remediation and recovery of misused resources will also
be expected. These expectations when not met might result in a low quality of life for the
citizens.
Pollution of whether air, water or land results in long-term reduction of productivity
leading to a deterioration of economic condition of a country. Therefore, controlling
pollution to reduce risk of poor health, to protect the natural environment and to
contribute to our quality of life is a key component of sustainable development.
“Even the best waste management system in the world has shown that it cannot withstand
the test of a global financial downturn; and with the global population, GDP per capita –
and therefore the amount of waste – increasing globally we must become aware of the
consequences and do something about it…”

35. Branding is one strategy that Ecoman can use to help build its base and spread awareness
and acceptance among clients, consumers, suppliers as trusted resources for long-term
supports and services. Effective branding of its own services creates awareness of who
the company is, what theystand for and what unique and meaningful benefits it can
deliver. Branding may involve a name, logo, symbol, unique selling proposition, an
advertisement, jingle, and design scheme, among other tangible attributes. However, a
brand is more than just this. It is a promise, the totality of perceptions; everything you
see, hear, read, know, feel, and think about a product, service, or business. It holds a
distinctive position in customer‟s minds based on past experience, associations, and
future expectations. In general, a brand is a symbolic embodiment of all the information
connected to a company, product or service. It serves to create associations.
In the last years the organic waste management industry has seen some developments that
required new strategies:
-Globalisation: Growing base of customers because they are legally required to follow
the norms regarding managing the organic waste as proposed by the government or any
other higher body. In addition global clients have realised the high need for managing
organic waste. They often prefer a solution for waste management that is globally
recognised and efficient.
-Stagnation in the core business: The traditional method of managing the organic waste
through vermiculture does not show high growth ratesi.e reducing the problems of
organic waste. An individual firms growth can mainly be achieved at the expense of
competitors only.
-Growth in waste management services: Day by day increasing of organic waste has
created a need for managing waste through different measures. The waste
management firms have traditionally done some ways to manage waste and now they
developed these activities aggressively. This had two results:-
-A growing variety of services offered – Led to the development of new products due to
technological change and upgradation. It had to be communicated to existing and
35
potential clients. The new waste management firms came into direct competition with
Page
the traditional waste management firms which had their own brands and reputation
35 | P a g e
36. -Need for qualified people: With the development of new products/services all firms
needed much more highly qualified people. Recruitment became an important issue.
This led to a competition to attract the best of best in the field.
All these factors together increased competition amongst the waste management firms.
For this industry excellent quality and efficiency i.e. time saving process, is not a means
to get a competitive advantage, it is an important requirement for any success at all. A
large variety of services is important; but the customer will perceive it only in the
moment he needs a certain service.
Branding is an element of an overall marketing and outreach strategy. Developing and
building a brand depends on multiple variables, such as type of services, products, type of
industry, target population, competitive or similar services, and private or public sector,
among others. Effective brands are composed of core elements and have unique aspects
that make them successful.
Qualities for a Successful Brand:-
→Competent
A product or service must fulfil its promise and ensure the delivery of high-quality
services are aligned with the company/organizations vision, and delivered with genuine
commitment to customer satisfaction.
Dell Inc. provides consumers with the most effective computing solutions to meet their
needs. As a result, Dell has become an industry-leader
→Clear
A strong brand is clear about what it is and what it is not
Volvo is clear about its commitment to safety. Their brand is not about speedy sports
cars, small economy cars, or luxury cars, but about safety and the people you care about
→Compelling
A brand is appropriate for and interesting to its target audience. If not, it is ineffective
and useless.

36 | P a g e
37. →Consistent
Brands are always what they say and who they are to bolster their brand attributes.
Wal-Mart has been consistent branding itself as a low-cost retailer with a pledge to
customer service, and satisfaction.
→Constant
Brands are always visible to their customers and prospects.
Coca-Cola is the world‟s most recognized brand with its trademark bottle shape and
dynamic ribbon below the Coca-Cola
→Connected
A brand connects to appropriate communities, affiliations, and partnerships. Establishing
and maintaining a network of partners, intermediaries, and customers is important.
Organizations should develop relationships that can reinforce their brand.
The United Way of America has established and built partnerships with government,
schoolsetc.,
→Committed
Brands are not a one-time event; it is not about fads, but built over time and requires
steadfast commitment to ensure long lasting success. Brands build value over time
through consistently living the brand promise
The strongest brands in the market have either been around for a long time, such as Coke
and IBM.
→Current
A brand is based on current needs with room to meet new and/or different needs in the
future.

38. Research Findings about the company
In this situation Ecomanis doing all their very best to differentiate themselves
successfully from competition all around the globe. They have reached a stage where, no
waste management firms has the same efficient technology. Technically, Ecoman doesn‟t
have any competitor to its product instead it has a substitute to its product.Not any of the
organic waste management firms appear to have similar defining products and service
qualities as that of Ecoman.It looks like other firms are not sending any consistent
messages about their organisation to external audience‟si.e. Awareness about the
products, services and presence of the brand in the market
Since, its operation Ecoman has realised that strong brand with a personality and a clear
messagecan be a valuable means for differentiation and thus for gaining a competitive
advantage over other firms and also increasing its customer and client base. It has done a
thorough research of the local market (as for now) and they have found out that their
customer and client base is very small and limited. It‟s a niche market. Therefore to
promote their brand continuously, easily and in an effective way.They havecome up with
a strategy to market their services and products to client and customers personally with
the help of Marketing Executives.
Ecoman is now investingheavily to reposition their brand and to develop their good name
in organic waste management industry by taking a next huge step that is by starting up its
own production plant in Khadki,Pune,India.The plant has been in operation since
February 2013. The production of its automatic organic waste composter is already in
pipeline. This has boosted the brand Ecoman to another level in the organic waste
managemeurnt sector. This measure also resulted in reducing the price of each individual
automatic organic waste composter to come down marginally by 20 to 30%.Ecoman has
a tremendous capacity to grow to be a multi-national company due to the services and
product that it offers for management of organic waste. Organic Waste Management is an
upcoming sector that will be fast growing in the coming years. As the world is in dire
needs to curb crisis of the growing waste problems that is increasing every passing day.
Ecoman as the organic waste management company has come up with the idea of solving
this problem through its Automatic Waste Composter that produces the result on site
without consuming much time, effort, space and money.Hence, reliable option.
Ecoman looks to solve this problem permanently by offering a unique solution
specially designed & suited for India:-

41. Suggestions, Opinion and Recommendations for the company
Ecoman as a waste management firm is doing a fair job of branding its services and
products through a personal touch or in an easy term it can be referred to as mouth to
mouth publicity to customers and clients. Which has brought a good response from
various strataof the society, in a way that the company was looking for.Even though the
company is fast growing at a local level. It‟s still slowly picking up pace at national and
international level. As they haven‟t yet set up their branch office at various places across
national (except in Navi Mumbai) and international level..
It is known and pretty logical that no company can grow faster and increase its brand
value in a fortnight just by mouth to mouth publicity. In my opinion the potential and
caliber company like Ecoman should look into modifying their branding strategies for
national and international market by advertising on a large scale through a suitable
medium, doing a tie up with other waste management firms, partnership, joint venture or
franchising. Ecoman should identify their target market at national and international level
with the help of market assessment strategy and then to penetrate and capture the whole
market by publicizing about its product and services and thereby look into creating a
brand value of its own in an organic waste management industry.
The potential company like Ecoman will grow itself to be called as an ideal organic waste
management solution if it goes for promotion of its products and services that it offers i.e.
through exhibitions, education (awareness), media etc. It should look for expansion and
opening up of new branches across the globe to fulfill the wants and necessities of the
customers and clients based there. Hence, leaving them fully satisfied. The timing is right
to follow this path as day by day new companies are coming up, which may try to imitate
the product and services that it offers. Thereby causing potential revenue loss to
company. 41

41 | P a g e
42. Limitations of the study:
The study was conducted only in Pune city whereas Ecoman is providing service
countrywide and globally. This might result in biased response.
The sample size was total 20 which are not exactly sufficient to explain the attitude of the
customer towards the brand Ecoman. Therefore, a proper research on this topic should
cover the customers from various cities at national and international level.
-Biased responses of some respondents.
-Many respondents were not giving personal information like email id and contact
number.
-The study could not provide one proper solution to increase the brand awareness of the
company.
-Some of the customer‟s couldn‟t schedule the interview due to the busy routine.
-Receiving false and manipulated information.
.
Suggestions for further research:
-The geographical are covered by the research should be larger.
-The sample size must be much higher.
-The budget to conduct research should be higher so that more data can be gathered, And
we will get more sophisticated and accurate findings.
-Different statistical tools can be used for better results. As statistical techniques will give
statistical figures which will give accurate information about the sector and the company.
-A comparative analysis with the competitors will give a better picture of
Ecoman as a brand.
-Samplingequal number of every type of different organic waste management users i.e.

43. FAQ‟s (Frequently Asked Questions) by clients and customers.
1) Is the compost dry?
Yes the compost is completely dry like soil having dark brown to black color.
2) Is there any smell?
No smell or odor as there is deodorizer
3) Any noise?
No noise as there is no crushing or grinding
4) Any gases?
No gases as it is aerobic digestion i.e. continuous air intake and air outlet
5) Electricity consumption?
Rs.10 to Rs.15 per flat per month
6) How much waste you consider per flat?
Corporation says 400gms per house, we
consider 500gms per house. Only in luxurious apartments we would consider more as
rich people tend to waste more.
7) Warranty?
1year
8) Maintenance?
Sir honestly there is no maintenance as there are no wear & tear parts which happens
when there is crushing or grinding. We do not expect the client to sign any AMC. If there
is any fault we would charge at actual and which would happen rarely.
9) Any operator needed?
No. As it is fully automatic, garbage collector can just open the lid and dump the waste.
43
Page
43 | P a g e
44. 10) What all can it process?
Any organic waste including bones, fish bones, egg shells, curry, etc. Even leaves and
small twigs. Only it cannot process coconut shell which is hard like stone and big
branches.
11) Even bones get processed in 6-8hrs?
Sir honestly bones do not get processes in 6-8hrs, but they remain in machine and get
processed in 2-3days.
12) Do you have to add any bacteria culture every time?
No. The machine initially comes with our sawdust till half level of machine which has
our bacteria culture in it. The bacteria reproduces continuously, so you have to never add
anything ever in your lifetime.
13) Why you do not have to add bacteria sawdust ever again?
When you remove the compost after a month only half is removed automatically in
bigger machines as the door is there at half level. The remaining compost already has
bacteria for new waste that you will put in.
14) Are these bacteria harmful?
Not at all as they grow only in high temperature of 55degree Celsius to 85degre Celsius.
So they do not possess any threat to humans and are free of any pathogens.
15) Can the compost be used directly in plants?
Yes the compost can be used directly in gardens or plants. Only that since it is
concentrated less amount than your normal compost should be used. We have compost
tested from Agriculture College Pune.
16) What if any plastic bag or rubber or any inorganic is put in?
Since there is no crushing or grinding it will not harm the compost or machine. While
putting the waste next day you can see that bag & remove it easily. If there was crushing
then the entire compost would have been damaged. This does not mean you can put
44
plastic and metal in it. A random plastic bag will not do any harm.
Page
44 | P a g e
45. 17) What if a metal rod is put?
It should not be put in, but if put by mistake the blades will get stuck and machine will
overload and trip. In worst case scenario blades will break which are cheap and can be
fixed with nut-bolts.
18) Dimensions?
Mentioned in presentation
19) Specifications?
All electrical specifications & other detailed specifications are mentioned in the
presentation.
20) If load shedding?
Machine operating time is only 6-12hrs. So if there is no electricity for few hrs. no
problem.
21) How is the exhaust air pipe connected?
It is connected to the sewage or storm water drain line, or to top terrace or outside
compound wall. There is no water or gas through the exhaust air pipe, only air.
22) What if the strength of bacteria reduces?
The bacteria continuously reproduces so its strength or power does not reduce. If there is
a worst case situation like someone puts 100kg baygon or 100kg alcohol in the machine,
then the bacteria will die and we would give you new sawdust which will have bacteria
culture in it
