Kathmandu Metropolitan City (KMC) has officially started generating biofuel from waste starting from July 1st week following a long test production. In the beginning, domestic waste collected from two wards (12 and 19) from the KMC will be used for the project.
The project is a part of the Integrated Sustainable Solid Waste Management Project that has the total joint investment of Rs 18.2 million of the KMC and European Union. Under the project that started around four years ago, 300 kilograms organic fertilizer, 14 kilowatts electricity and 13,500 liters water will be produced on a daily basis from three metric tones organic materials. Meanwhile, speaking at a function on the occasion of the biogas production, KMC?s newly appointed mayor Bidya Sundar Shakya said many problems of the capital city could be resolved once waste of the city is managed properly and fully. He also said it is the responsibility of the local residents to keep their house premises and surroundings clean. KMC's executive officer Ishwori Raj Poudel viewed that the KMC's campaign to utilize waste as energy should be made to materialize. EU's ambassador to Nepal Rensje Teerink pointed out the need for making Kathmandu city known to the world as a beautiful and clean city.

Sujan, thank you for your report. Biofuel from waste is definitely our future. Although producing something out of waste has not yet been totally widespread, we are seeing progress. Maybe in 50 years, we might see the technique everywhere!

Thanks for the info ambassador . The generation of biofuel from waste will be a great alternative to the existing energy source of our country. Hoping to see this extended as a permanent source.
