Key Challenge
India produces around 228 million tonnes of surplus biomass annually and open burning of these residues is leading to severe air-quality impacts. Studies estimate that 44,000–98,000 premature deaths occur each year through particulate exposure alone.
Significant agricultural activities and widespread agro-residue burning especially in Nagpur, Vidarbha, and Amravati regions have led to Air Quality Index (AQI) of 200.
In regions such as the Indo-Gangetic Plain too, stubble-burning events have been shown to contribute up to 35% of daily PM2.5 levels during the postharvest period.
Repeated burning can also degrade soil's organic matter leading to losses in key nutrients such as nitrogen and carbon.
Transforming Waste Into Renewable Opportunity
Therefore, at Mamta Bioresources LLP, we look to seamlessly bridge the gap between biomass waste management and sustainable energy production. With India’s cofiring mandate increasing from 5% to 7%, the implied demand for biomass pellets rises substantially into tens of millions of tonnes per year of premium biomass fuel.
At the same time, diverting stubble and residue into value-added pellet production not only mitigates air pollution and restores soil nutrient cycling, but also empowers rural incomes and stimulates regional industrial growth.
