Waste Audit

Waste audit is the first step towards waste management. An audit helps assess your current waste generation types, quantum, patterns and evaluates its annual environmental impact.

Process:

A team of experts from RUR GreenLife would visit your premises to quantify and qualify the waste generated over a span of 1-2 days, and compile a detailed report. The report contains personalised solutions with recommended systems for efficient waste collection and recycling as well as a thorough community engagement plan for the long term sustenance of the project.

Outcome:

Preliminary assessment of waste helps us understand where you stand and sets a benchmark from which we formulate appropriate and viable solutions that are specific to your premise. It also offers us a chance to undertake a cost-benefit analysis of the waste management solution in pipeline and is therefore, highly recommended. To conduct a waste audit at your premises, reach out to us!

Site Survey

Process:

Once we have a waste audit report, the next step is to shortlist a space that can be dedicated to waste management practices in-situ (at source). A team from RUR GreenLife would visit your site and identify an appropriate zone based on ventilation, area allocation and convenience of operation.

Outcome:
An appropriate place for decentralized waste management is key to easy and hassle free waste management. We help you find one within your premises.

Sensitization and Awareness

Process:

Our key mission is to make people conscious of their waste generation and disposal practices. Through workshops and campaigns (digital & in-person), we have reached 10 lakh + individuals in the last decade and helped them take their first steps towards sustainable living.

During the sensitization modules we demonstrate simple and effective ways in which you can adopt and practice segregation at source.

Outcome:

RUR’s knowledge on the importance of decentralized, sustainable and holistic waste management is instilled in all participants through simple and effective demonstrations. All partakers come out of the sessions as eco-conscious and responsible beings, ready to put in action the 3R principle – Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!

Segregation at Source

Process:

Over time, our waste streams have become diversified which makes it difficult to sustainably recycle all the waste generated. While Refuse and need based buying are good approaches, most of our buys come packaged in gauge plastics, bubble wraps and food wrappers. The biggest hurdle to appropriate waste management is mixing of waste at source and hence, the most important first step towards sustainability is segregation at source; we have devised a three bin approach that maximizes recycling to nearly 90% at source.

The three categories include
⦁ Wet Waste (Biodegradable kitchen waste)
⦁ Dry waste (Recyclable waste)
⦁ Trash (Reject waste that are difficult to recycle safely).

Outcome:

We help you identify waste streams and segregate at source by encouraging you to adopt our three bin approach. The three categories include: Wet waste (Biodegradable kitchen waste), Dry waste (Recyclables), Trash (Rejects that are difficult to recycle). After all, well begun is half done!

Hands-on Training for Housekeeping Staff

Process:

We provide hands-on training workshops to housekeeping staff and sensitize them on the importance of segregation at source through various audio-visual demonstrations. We train them on two continuous cycles of composting and hence empower them to earn extra income by employing these skills.

Outcome:
Our elaborate training includes scientific understanding of the process and hence ensures that the housekeeping staff can efficiently manage the project. This hand holding phase relieves you from doing any background research on process implementation or worrying about troubleshooting.

Bio composting Service

Process:

“Bio-composting is a natural and eco-friendly process. RUR’s innovative, patent filed, in-vessel technology ‘GreenGold Aerobic Bio-Composter’ (RGGC) makes composting your kitchen and garden waste very easy. We work out a system based on project site, offer training & guidance and provide AMC for the RGGC system. Find out more about bio-composting with us and take your first green step – buy a composter!

Outcome:
Nutrient rich compost is generated within 6 weeks of bio-composting that can be used to maintain a home grown vegetable, herb and landscape garden

Dry Waste Recycling (7 Bin Approach)

Process:

Effective segregation ensures less waste is diverted to landfills. Dry waste can be segregated into 7 different bins which can be sent to appropriate vendors and efficiently recycled. We can help you establish ties with the right vendors for streamlined dry waste recycling!

Outcome:
Higher the segregation, higher is the accumulation of high value recyclables .Dry waste recycling generates direct revenue from waste.

Few tips Reducing Trash

Process:

It is said, less is more; living by the same principle the ultimate aim is to reduce trash by incorporating simple green practices in our lives.

Chose eco-friendly packaging, avoid buying multi-layer and thin gauge plastic packaging.
Buy locally, Buy bulk
Eliminate the use of disposable items e.g: razors
Shop/Buy refillable products, carry your own containers and ask for a refill .
Carry cloth bags, refuse one-time use plastic articles.
Compost your wet waste.
Sell dry waste to local recyclers.
Switch to eco-friendly products like cloth diapers, cloth sanitary pads or menstrual cups.
Look for natural alternatives for cleaning agents such as vinegar and bio-enzymes.
Dine out rather than ordering food at home.
Opt for recycled products, re-purpose/ up-cycle your reject materials. repair/ donate things you no longer use.

Green Alternatives

Waste is a resource with multiple facets, and it is imperative to utilize this resource effectively and optimally. We strive to introduce the concept of green living among citizens and have opened avenues in the form of online store (instamojo link) and offline Eco-bazaar,as ‘one-stop-shop’ to make green alternatives easily available.
Green alternatives include using bamboo toothbrushes and combs, pencils made from up-cycled newspapers, cloth bags, recycled notebooks, products made from recycled Tetra Pak cartons such as writing pads, pen stand, school desk, garden bench, etc.

Organic kitchen garden

Composting is a good way to recycle wet waste, horticulture waste(dry leaves) and other yard waste. Compost is a great material for garden soil, it helps improve plant growth and health and provides nourishment to earth.

Many of our active sites shave been practicing this and are now successfully running a self-sustaining model. You can practice this too! Join us to experience the beauty of growing your organic kitchen garden from the organic compost produced through RUR GreenLife’s RGGC, drop in an enquiry here.

Holistic Approach To Solid Waste Management

Most of the current waste management practices are centralized in a particular location, which pose problems such as inappropriate waste management, generation of greenhouse gases, huge transportation costs and loss of resources, among others.

Our design philosophy involves making waste a resource and maximizing recycling at source through scientific research, innovative technologies and efficient execution. Our aim is to to divert up to 90% of city waste from landfills and reduce the overall ecological footprint of mankind.
