Date:31 October 2013

A Bangalore based firm has come out with a solution to the mounting garbage problem. The technology developed by the company- Alchemy- reduces tonnes of garbage into a few litres of liquid. Spurthi Industries Private Limited at Peenya Industrial Area gave a live demonstration of Alchemy to Mayor B S Sathyanarayana, corporators and several others on October 30 2013. The machine has a cylinder in which one tonne of garbage is dumped and 25 litres solution is added. It consumes the waste leaving about 100 grams of liquid. During the demonstration at least 500 kg of waste was filled in the cylinder and the solvent was added. In a short time, about 100 grams of liquid came out without generating any odour or smoke.
