Smaller Waste Treatment Plants For Cities
Plants using FuelKel technology, a popular technique in Europe introduced I By Yentha

Hallmark Engineers is introducing an innovative technique for waste management in cities. The company ensures that 120 ton of domestic waste can be processed daily using the Fuel Kel technology, which is widely used in European countries.

In conventional waste treating procedures, the separation of solid waste and fluid waste done during the collection of waste is a major issue. Later, this separated waste is transported to waste treatment plants for processing. However Hallmark Engineers state that, using Fuel Keltechnology, the waste can be collected and transported to the treatment plant without separating. The waste will then be processed in 70 to 130 degree Celsius heat without causing air pollution.

These waste treatments plants can be constructed on justone acre of land at a cost of 50 crores. Poland based Sealine Limited will directly construct the plant and provide technical expertise. The company also offers two years guarantee for the plants.

The smaller waste treatment plants will be very useful for Kerala. Cities like Trivandrum where waste management facilities are facing widespread protests can greatly benefit from such alternative methods. Hallmark Engineers’ partners K Nanmarajan, P K Sebastian and T N Arun explained their company’s products during a press conference.

Bengaluru has entered into a contract with a Chennai based company G.K Aromatics to convert waste plastic to crude oil. 400 tonnes of plastic yield 4000 liters of oil which can be used to run machines and vehicles. Maybe we should explore all these options and settle on the best instead of jumping at something because it is European technology.

Who is the cat here ? Are you John Mary the journalist ? If so, why don't you do an investigative report. I am quoting from a report in the Indian Express, Bengaluru edition, Jan 25, 2012. If you are not the same person, get some good journos including the ones in yentha to get a scoop.
