Its main divisions are: waste management fundamentals and planning; metal and electronic waste recycling including vehicle scrapping, copper, lead acid batteries, lithium-ion batteries and aluminium; agricultural and organic waste utilisation including briquettes, organic fertiliser, particle board and rice bran oil; plastic and PET recycling through to polyester fibre and yarn; specialised streams including waste oil, tyre pyrolysis, biomass charcoal and activated carbon; compliance covering biomedical waste and BIS standards with machinery supplier contacts; and emerging areas including carbon credits, green hydrogen and automation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is this waste recycling handbook written for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis handbook is written for readers evaluating or operating recycling ventures rather than studying waste policy. Its intended audience includes entrepreneurs assessing which recycling stream to enter, existing recyclers adding a second material line, environmental and compliance officers, municipal and industrial waste managers, consultants preparing project or feasibility reports, students of environmental engineering and waste management, and technical libraries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich recycling business should someone start, and why?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe right answer depends less on which material is most profitable in the abstract and more on which feedstock the entrant can reliably secure, since collection is the binding constraint in almost every recycling business. Plastic granule and PET recycling suit those with access to municipal or industrial waste streams and modest capital, and demand is supported by recycled content obligations on brand owners. Metal recycling, particularly aluminium and copper, offers better margins and mature markets but needs working capital to hold stock against price movement. Battery recycling, both lead acid and lithium-ion, is growing quickly with electric vehicle adoption but is hazardous waste and carries the heaviest compliance burden. Agricultural residue routes such as briquettes, particle board and rice bran oil suit rural locations near a mill or growing belt. The common constraints are worth stating plainly: nearly every stream requires consent to establish and operate from the state pollution control board and often authorisation under hazardous or plastic waste rules; informal sector competition operates without those costs; feedstock quality varies and contamination destroys margin; and output prices track virgin material, so recyclers are exposed to commodity cycles they cannot control. Entrants should confirm feedstock supply and licensing feasibility before ordering machinery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat licences are required to set up a recycling plant in India?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRequirements vary by stream, and the book covers them individually. Plastic recycling content covers business registration, factory licence, fire no objection certificate, registration as a plastic waste processor and consent no objection certificate, with the application procedure, validity and renewal. Vehicle scrapping content covers eligibility for a scrapping and recycling facility certificate, the entity requirements, scrapping criteria, certificate issue, validity and renewal, and the applicable rules. Battery and aluminium recycling sections each set out their own eligibility criteria, personal and company documents, other permissions and setup procedure. Biomedical waste content covers classification, segregation, packaging, labelling, storage, transport, record keeping and treatment. Readers should confirm current requirements with their state pollution control board, since waste rules in India have been amended repeatedly in recent years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the book cover government financial support for recycling plants?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, and this is one of its more practically useful sections. It covers the guidelines for one-time financial assistance towards establishing recycling plant and machinery, including the objectives, the recycling facilities covered, the oversight mechanism split between state pollution control boards, the central board and urban local bodies, post-commissioning monitoring and inspection, the financing structure with capital expenditure support and cost sharing, the disbursement mechanism, eligibility criteria, documents required, and the application, evaluation and approval process. Readers should verify that the scheme remains open and confirm current terms before building it into a project plan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat PET and plastic recycling technology does the book explain?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlastic coverage runs from collection through to finished fibre. It distinguishes rigid and flexible plastic recycling with their separate collection, sorting, cleaning, crushing and extrusion routes and the infrastructure challenges specific to flexibles, and covers single and twin shaft shredders, granulators and rigid and film washing lines. PET content covers bottle collection, separation, compacting, washing and decontamination, flake production in hot washed, cold washed and unwashed grades with quality standards and colour grading, pellet production, preform and bottle manufacture by one-step and two-step processes, polyester staple fibre production through polymerisation, extrusion, spinning, drawing, crimping and cutting, and texturised recycled yarn manufacture. A separate section covers the Indian food safety authority guidelines for recycled PET as a food contact material, including scope, marking and labelling, process requirements, authorisation conditions and the application process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the book cover carbon credits and emerging technologies?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Carbon credit content covers the basics of carbon trading, relevant methodologies, which waste projects qualify, measurement, reporting and verification of emissions reductions, registration processes and standards, the Indian carbon market, municipal case studies, and the challenges and mitigation strategies involved. Green hydrogen content covers the distinction between production colours, waste-to-hydrogen pathways including plasma oxy-gasification of municipal and agricultural waste, photoreforming of plastics and biomass, non-thermal plasma methods and gasification with membrane and pressure swing separation, alongside regulatory and policy trends and regional incentives. Automation content covers artificial intelligence sorting, robotics, smart bins, connected monitoring frameworks, automated sorting systems, fleet management and recycling facility automation with case studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the book include project economics and machinery details?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis title does not include the standard costed project profiles with fixed capital and turnover tables found in some other volumes in this series. Instead, cost and setup guidance appears within individual chapters, covering plant setup cost and fees for lead acid battery, lithium-ion battery and aluminium recycling, investment and setup considerations for plastic granule manufacture, land, utility and manpower requirements for plastic recycling, and investment potential for bagasse tableware. A separate section provides photographs of plant and machinery with supplier contact details, and machinery and equipment lists appear within several process chapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"EIRI Board","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47908463476841,"sku":null,"price":2400.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0661\/8044\/8361\/files\/9788193971383.jpg?v=1786886431","url":"https:\/\/shop.eiriindia.org\/products\/complete-handbook-of-industrial-and-agricultural-waste-recycling-metal-plastic-organic-bio-medical-rice-bran-oil-e-waste-emerging-recycling-technologies","provider":"Engineers India Research Institute","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
