Abstract

Biomass is organic matter used especially as source of energy. Agriculture is a major contributor to India's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). As we produce more crops, it results in to more bio-mass waste. Biomass waste problem is growing in India. Common practice is burning of residue which creates health hazards. Repeatedly burning of paddy is observed in India. Government has introduced Solid Waste Management Rules, 2016 (SWM) & fixed the responsibilities. The total waste generated in India is 1.54 lakh metric tons per day, in which 50% of total waste is organic wastes and so composting has emerged as one of the best methods for treatment of wastes. It is observed that the regulation for SWM is not properly enforced. When government is planning for smart city projects, it is important to enforce SWM 2016. In this paper we will discuss SWM 2016 & various types with application of biomass.
