| Project Title : | Blue Planet to set up world’s largest waste processing plant at Kodungaiyur, Chennai |
| Company Name : | Private Company |
| Project Detail : | Singapore-based Blue Planet Environmental Solutions will establish the world’s largest waste processing plant at Kodungaiyur in North Chennai, Tamil Nadu. The project, in partnership with the Greater Chennai Corporation, aims to clear a 66 lakh cubic mtrs. garbage mound through extensive bio-mining, significantly improving public health in the area. Co-founder and CEO Prashant Singh stated, “We are clearing the landfill there (in Kodungaiyur). You will see in the next three years, we’ll make the (garbage) dumpyard disappear for you.” The initiative will transform the Kodungaiyur dumpyard, which has been a long-standing source of pollution and ecological damage, into a restored, usable land area. In addition to the landfill reclamation, Blue Planet is working with local farmers to convert agricultural waste, including paddy stubble, into compressed biogas (CBG). This integrated approach supports both sustainable waste management and renewable energy generation, while also helping reduce stubble burning — a major contributor to air pollution. The project represents a major step forward for Tamil Nadu’s waste-to-energy ambitions, contributing to environmental restoration and the circular economy. |
