In order to solve the issue of waste mismanagement and increase the production of biofuel, the energy solutions business CEF Group has signed an MoU with the government of Uttar Pradesh to establish many waste processing plants in various parts of the state. According to the company's announcement on Monday, the group will invest Rs 650 crore in the plants' construction, creating jobs for about 240 people.
According to CEF Group CEO Maninder Singh Nayyar, "Because Uttar Pradesh is the largest state in the nation, we can provide enough waste management solutions. In many ways, this arrangement will prove advantageous for the entire state." The company said organic waste processing plants with captively grown Napier grass will also be utilized, bringing stable earnings for farmers. "This is a direct replacement for chemical fertilizers in commercial farming. Therefore, enabling more scope for sustainable and natural/organic farming on a larger scale. We will be able to produce both biofuels and organic manure resulting in a sustainable environment," said Nayyar.
The company will turn organic waste, press mud from sugar mills, agricultural trash, and municipal solid refuse into biofuels and related products. Construction on the projects will begin by the end of 2023 and will be done in stages. The debris and land will come from various Uttar Pradeshi municipalities. The CEF waste processing plant will process the project's complete setup, including the offtake arrangements for the Bio-CNG and organic manure or city compost, scientifically.
