Vtronics Exim Pvt Ltd addresses food waste management as a pressing issue affecting health and the environment, particularly in India where organic waste is the largest segment of municipal waste. Their proposed solution, the Vtronics Food Waste Disposer, enables immediate kitchen waste disposal, reduces landfill reliance, and minimizes harmful environmental impacts such as greenhouse gas emissions. By promoting the use of food waste disposers in households, the initiative aims to create a cleaner, more hygienic community, potentially achieving zero waste status and improved overall public health.

INTRODUCES
Waste Management Solutions

2. Food waste a major concern in Waste Management
• Waste Management – The single biggest challenge for any Government
• Proper Waste disposal is critical - certain waste are dangerous to Health &
Environment
• Food waste management forms the part of waste management process is in
• A lot of Household waste comes from the Kitchen

• Contaminated Food waste becomes Hazardous waste

3. Asia – Food waste is the highest

4. India – Organic waste is the biggest part of Waste

5.  Most of the waste generated in the city comprises of biodegradable,
compostable and recyclable material. This is due to the high quantum of
religious and vegetables waste along with the high amount of waste
generated due to plastics. A small percentage of waste also comprises of
debris and inert material generated from construction, repair and
maintenance activities. This wastes contain bricks, cement concrete,
stones, tiles, wood, etc. and the storage of this waste at the time of its
generation is totally neglected. By and large, people deposit construction
waste, after salvaging useful material, on the road.
Overview of Municipal Solid Waste

6. Collection 70-90% waste 90% of the collected waste is dumped at landfills
10-20% of the collected waste in
landfills is openly burnt
Such open burning of waste
releases 22,000 tons of
pollutants every year…this is
only in Mumbai!
Waste segregation at
source still a major
problem

29. Imagine Living in a Pollution Society sans
It is all in OUR HANDS... … SO LET US DECIDE

30. • Avoid or use lesser plastic or paper to dispose food waste.
• Water waste from the kitchen sink is transferred to the waste water treatment
plant. From there, it's recycled into energy sources and fertilizer.
• Reduce greenhouse gases emitted by waste management truck during
transportation. Those trucks carried the waste food to the landfill.
• Less waste food to landfill means lesser production of methane. Methane is a
potent greenhouse gas harmful to the environment.
• Food Waste Disposer– that sit in sink drains churning up food waste before sending
it to municipal wastewater treatment facilities – could help slow climate change
• Food Waste Disposer, send all the grounded food waste to wastewater treatment
facilities, many of which have installed anaerobic digesters that convert the waste
into biogas. This process often offsets the energy needed to power the facility so
significantly that much of the biogas can be sent back to the grid and thus
considerably reduce the electricity consumption in STP.
VTRONICS FWD - Great Contributor to Green Environment

31. As per the PE America’s report,
If 30,000 households in a community switch from
disposing food waste in a landfill to use of a FWD,
Then the global warming potential of disposing
of food waste would be reduced by 1.9 million
kg of carbon dioxide equivalent.
This is equivalent to the community not driving
4.6 million miles in the average car or 100
community members going carbon neutral for a
year.

32. Installation of VTRONICS Food Waste Disposer
(VFWD) in every apartment/flat/house to be made
mandatory (As in the USA)
Every household kitchen to install the VFWD in
their kitchen sink.
Train household to dispose food and kitchen waste
through the VFWD.
No garbage collection truck needs to be sent to
housing societies.
