With rapid pace of industrialization and urbanization as well as significant lifestyle changes, India has accumulated patches of waste in and around municipal areas around the country. Although global markets are warming up to the idea of sustainable development, India is still struggling to manage municipal waste. Due to change in food habits and consumption patterns, solid waste composition is rapidly changing but currently biodegradable waste dominates the bulk of MSW.
Based out of Mumbai, Somu Solutions is a foremost manufacturer and trader of large-scale waste management equipment. Additionally, the firm is involved in turnkey projects of large scale municipal solid waste processing plants.
Talking about the current waste management scenario, CEO, Ropson George says, “In recent years, technologies are being developed globally in order to reduce the waste considerably as well as generating substantial quantity of decentralized energy. However, municipal waste management is a relatively recent development in India”.
Pioneering Waste Management Technology
Somu Solutions has latest technology of mixed solid waste segregation and processing with pyrolysis. Utilizing state-of-the-art technology, maximum waste is converted to recyclable and reusable materials. By this technology Somu Solutions can minimize the quantity of SLF residue, their waste processing technology makes multiple by-products from the mixed solid waste, thereby resulting in minimum residue.
The firm not only manufactures customized fully-automatic machineries for 100 percent waste segregation but also high quality fertilizers – both at competitive pricing to ensure waste management doesn’t end up being a costly affair for municipalities and industries.
Ropson says, “We have a highly experienced team working in the municipal solid waste processing field. We strive to set up municipal solid waste processing plant for interested individual parties or municipal corporation with minimum investment. Our team ensures complete success of the project”.
Somu Solutions helps their client segregate wet & dry organic from mixed solid waste, as well as separating coconut shell, low density plastic, high density plastic, metal parts, stone and many. The dry organic waste is converted into the end product of RDF (ready to use in boilers instead of coal in cement plant & power plant), and wet organic is sent to windrows for aerobic composting.

Started from scratch,Ropson concludes, “We strive to become the leading MSW processing service provider across the country. We aim to become the supplier of choice for all our clients, whilst making sure to offer true value for money on all our services offered".
