Ramky sets up construction & demolition waste recycling plant at Noida

The finished recycled products from the plant can be put to multipurpose use, thereby reducing the impact on environment

Hyderabad: Hyderabad-based Ramky Enviro Engineers and New Okhla Industrial Development Authority together have set up a construction & demolition (C&D) waste recycling plant at Noida, Uttar Pradesh.

The project which is spread across five acres of land can recycle up to 300 tonnes per day of construction and demolition waste. The plant envisages the collection, transportation, processing, and management of C&D waste, under a public-private partnership basis.

Any waste comprising building materials, debris, and rubble resulting from construction, remodelling, repair, and demolition of any civil structure is classified as C&D waste. C&D waste is an inert waste, and over 90 per cent of it can be reused or recycled.

The C&D plant at Noida aims to manage and scientifically process the waste generated in and around Noida to produce a broad range of green and eco-friendly products. The finished recycled products from the plant can be put to multipurpose use; thereby reducing the impact on the environment.

The recycled bricks can be used for pavements and the recycled aggregates, and manufactured sand can be used as building materials, plain cement concrete for road making, non-structural landscaping products thereby reducing the pressure on available resources.

Speaking on the occasion, Goutham Reddy, MD & CEO Ramky Enviro Engineers said “According to a recent study by the Centre for Science and Environment, India manages to recover and recycle only about one percent of its C&D waste.”
