In a groundbreaking development, M/s. Lion India Research Innovation Pvt. Ltd. has introduced an innovative incineration technology aimed at eradicating non-recyclable plastic waste—an urgent and global concern. This revolutionary process, which is a first of its kind in the world, ensures that all forms of non-recyclable plastics, including fiber, fiberglass, and thermocol-based materials, are converted into ash.
This innovative approach serves as a resolute solution to the pressing issues associated with plastic pollution, such as overflowing landfills, soil and water contamination, and the pervasive problem of waterlogging in urban areas. Moreover, it addresses pollution in rivers, forests, and oceans worldwide. Remarkably, this technology not only contributes to waste reduction but also has the potential to generate power and provide a valuable source of ash for infrastructure and cement manufacturing, transforming waste into wealth.
Gopinath I., MD & CINO, and Rajendra S V, Project Director & PRO at M/s. Lion India Research Innovation Pvt. Ltd. in Bangalore, have formally submitted the technology report to Mr. Eeshwar Khandre, Minister for Environment & Forest of Karnataka state, for validation and consideration. This significant advancement represents a global solution to the persistent issue of plastic waste, which has eluded resolution for nearly five decades, despite extensive research and substantial investments by some of the world’s most advanced countries.
The potential impact of this catalytic incineration technology cannot be overstated, offering renewed hope for a cleaner, more sustainable future and the much-awaited end to the plastic waste crisis.
