Swachhcoin: We aim to disrupt the existing waste management system

Swachhcoin Foundation is a non profit organization whose primary objective is to work extensively to overhaul the waste management sector by acting as a complete technology developer and service provider in this domain. Swachhcoin will make the existing waste management industries as efficient and capable as possible so that they become technologically and otherwise able to tackle the imminent waste management crisis the world faces at this very moment. Apart from working with industries, Swachhcoin will develop an ecosystem where individuals on a mass level are made aware of the possibilities of waste around them so that they understand their roles and responsibility and act accordingly.

The problems related to global waste management are uncountable. Some of them are:

Excessive Generation Generation of wastes has been an acute problem for a long time now. Since the 60’s, the quantities of wastes generated have tripled leaving us with a bigger burden. Day in day out, the USA throws as much wastes as to fill around 60,000 garbage trucks. The severity of the problem seems acute when we extrapolate the data from the USA to the rest of the world. Disposal is expected to rise up to 1.5 kilograms per day by 2025. Considering today’s average of 1.2 kilograms per day, this is a significant 25% increase.

Landfill Issue Leachate and emissions of the harmful greenhouse gases are frequently associated with Landfills. A closer look at the qualitative contents of the wastes produced reveals that most materials that end up as wastes contain toxic materials. Gradually these toxic substances precipitate and leach out of the soil, eventually entering the groundwater and rendering them hazardous and unfit for consumption for years to come. The organic materials, compacted as a result of this, are covered down without being exposed to soil. This affects the natural aerobic process of decomposition by inhibiting oxygen through the covering of organic substances. This contributes to the production of inflammable, unwanted and harmful greenhouse house gases like Methane which are lethal to living organisms.

Toxicity Waste Tons of toxic wastes produced each year, amounting to around 440 million tons, gives us a sneak-peek into a much bigger problem. An average American produces about 3200 pounds of hazardous wastes. These include all sorts of materials - liquids, solids, contained gases, sludge, discarded commercial products like pesticides and cleaning fluids and byproducts of manufacturing processes. Uranium seems to be a rather common toxic pollutant with the United States having billions of gallons of it’s groundwater polluted by it. Studies in the US have revealed presence of 63.5 million tons of radioactive material, of which Uranium derived from spent nuclear fuel being the most prominent, buried in landfills, trenches and unlined tanks.

Organised mismanagement Ever since waste-management has evolved into a profit making venture, people who opined in favour of safe and effective waste-management techniques have been outmatched by new industries waiting to invest in this business. Every industry, inclusive of the waste-management sector, has been a victim of organized corruption - either controlled by certain individuals or through systematic looting. These corporations have no regard for environmental impacts and do not seem to understand the severity of the issue. 

Lots of Plastics Around 8 million metric tons of plastic ends up in the oceans every year which is equivalent to five grocery bags of plastic trash for every foot of coastline around the globe. Only 9 percent has been recycled. The vast majority - 79 percent - is accumulating in landfills or sloughing off in the natural environment as litter and at a point, much of it ends up in the oceans, the final sink.

Using World Bank data on 192 coastal countries, researchers estimated that China, the most populous nation, has the most mismanaged plastic waste per year and also generates the most plastic debris that end up in the ocean at 28 percent.

Mismanaged waste means the material is littered or not properly disposed off meaning there isn’t a formally managed waste management system.

Proposed Solution

It is not a hidden fact that the global waste management problem we face cannot be tackled by a handful of people or organisations. The willingness and contribution of mass population is key in successfully achieving our objective. The best way to encourage people to properly manage their wastes will be to incentivize them monetarily for proper waste disposal and raise their awareness about the issue. This is the core of the proposed solution Swachhcoin offers. Also, it is scientifically proven fact that the amount of high-economic-value outputs that can be obtained from the accumulated wastes is tremendously reduced due to various types of waste being intermixed, thus degrading the unique property/individuality of the same. Swachhcoin will implement waste segregation at source in SwBINS to eliminate this problem. The traditionally running waste management industries have poor infrastructure and the archaic technologies available to them greatly limits their operational abilities. Swachhcoin will completely eliminate this problem and take the technological abilities of the company to the state of the art level, thus increasing their profits significantly. There will be additional revenue generated from deploying technologies such as AI, Big Data, IoT and Blockchain since they will increase operational efficiencies and productivity while also improving the output quality, thus the additional capital invested in upgradation is also justified. The cost of these additional investment will also be covered from ways that are currently absent in this sector such as revenue obtained from advertisement. Existing waste management companies will be provided with complete business plan, including a break even point, based on the past research and development along with active onsite survey. This process will help us cross over the adoption barrier
