TEAM TEAM<br />

Waste disposal status...<br />

The growing number of hotels, canteens, restaurants, and townships in<br />

India are facing the following problems related to <strong>waste</strong> disposal.<br />

P How <strong>waste</strong> <strong>from</strong> canteen, hotels, townships, and wholesale vegetable<br />

markets to be disposed off in environment-friendly manner?<br />

P Limited knowledge of suitable disposal techniques<br />

P Lack of space for disposal<br />

P How to comply with ‘Solid Waste<br />

(Management and Handling) Rules<br />

2000’<br />

Current practice for <strong>waste</strong><br />

disposal<br />

P Thrown into sewer<br />

P Dumping in low-lying areas/dump<br />

sites/land fill sites<br />

Organic <strong>waste</strong> – a resource<br />

P Great potential to replace LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) or coal<br />

P Potential to replace chemical fertilizers with good quality organic<br />

manure<br />

Solution...<br />

TEAM (<strong>TERI</strong>’s Enhanced Acidification<br />

and Methanation) is a hasslefree<br />

eco-friendly technological<br />

solution to the problem of canteen,<br />

hotel, restaurant, and township<br />

<strong>waste</strong>. TEAM is a biphasic process.<br />

The first phase extracts the organic<br />

content <strong>from</strong> the <strong>waste</strong> and the<br />

second stage generates biogas <strong>from</strong><br />

liquefied <strong>waste</strong>. The digested<br />

residue <strong>from</strong> the first phase is an<br />

enriched manure. The TEAM<br />

process operates throughout the<br />

year under normal temperature<br />

conditions.<br />

Why TEAM... TEAM...<br />

P Low payback period of one-and-a-half<br />

year only<br />

P Shorter <strong>waste</strong> processing period of only<br />

one week in comparison to 4–8 weeks in<br />

other biogas systems<br />

P Zero-<strong>waste</strong> discharge system with low<br />

water requirement<br />

P <strong>Biogas</strong> of higher calorific value (minimum<br />

7500 kCal/m 3 )<br />

P No scum formation<br />

P Easy handling and low maintenance<br />

P Enriched manure with high NPK (nitrogen,<br />

potassium, phosphorus)<br />

P Possible as decentralized system of different capacity<br />

as per requirement<br />

P Flexibility of using different construction materials to<br />

reduce plant cost<br />

TEAM and food <strong>waste</strong><br />

P Minimum biogas yield of 50–60 m 3 /tonne,<br />

which is equivalent to<br />

a) 25–30 kg LPG<br />

b) 55–65 kg coal<br />

P Enriched manure (10% of the total <strong>waste</strong>)<br />

Nitrogen 1.2%<br />

Phosphorus 0.1%<br />

Potassium 0.6%<br />

Low payback period of one-and a-half years*<br />

* For one tonne per day capacity plant<br />
