Mumbai, one of India’s busiest and most populous cities, faces a growing waste management crisis. As the city’s population grows and consumption increases, waste generation is at its peak, putting huge pressure on the already overflowing dumping yards. According to experts, nearly 70% of Mumbai’s waste is organic, primarily kitchen waste, which contributes significantly to environmental degradation, including the emission of methane, a greenhouse gas 80 times more powerful than carbon dioxide. To address this important issue, a new waste segregation initiative has been launched in Mumbai’s K-East ward to help solve the city’s waste management challenges. The project aims to involve residents, raise awareness about the importance of sorting waste at the source, reduce pressure on the city’s dumpsites, and promote a culture of sustainability. But, how can we ensure that the waste we generate is disposed of responsibly? This is where Organic Waste Converter steps in, a state-of-the-art solution from Greenius that is revolutionizing the way organic waste is managed.

The Organic Waste Converter can process 200-300 kg of organic waste per day, which is perfect for residential societies, small businesses, and commercial kitchens. This machine transforms kitchen waste, such as food scraps and vegetable peels, into nutrient-rich compost in just 24 hours, a process that traditionally takes weeks or even months.
How Does the Organic Waste Converter Work?
Using the Organic Waste Converter is incredibly simple, thanks to its advanced technology and automated processes. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how the machine works:
- Loading Waste: Organic waste, including food scraps and vegetable peels, is carefully loaded into the machine.

- Mixing: Slowly rotating blades mix the waste evenly, breaking up clumps and ensuring that the waste is exposed to heat and microorganisms, which speeds up the decomposition process.
- Heating: The waste is heated to a controlled temperature of 50-60°C, which maximizes microbial activity and neutralizes harmful pathogens.
- Decomposition: Within 24 hours, the waste volume is reduced by 70-80%, and it is converted into nutrient-rich compost that can be used to enhance soil fertility.
