According to authority officials, the compost machines will convert the kitchen waste to make manure.

“We are aiming to resolve the garbage issue of the city sectors as well as preparing the manure for to be used in green areas during the process. We aim to initially install such setup in the populated sectors of Greater Noida however with time it will expand to other regions as well,” said B K Tripathi, additional CEO (ACEO), GNIDA.
