Moksh-convert Crop Waste Into Wealth
Project Description :

Imagine a scenario wherein you are unable to dispose-off your domestic waste and then juxtapose the same situation in the context of farming land. it is generally observed that farmers are unable to dispose-off their waste and so end up burning it off, leading to pollution and its resultant problems, especially breathing. moksh is a movable machine, designed to address this problem. it ‘walks’ in the field after the crop is harvested and picks up the waste from its front end, dries it using patented technology and indigenously developed non-thermal drying process. at its rear-end, this waste is then processed into fine dried powder. the waste is dried using the patented and novel radio frequency-based technology which is 100 times faster than the conventional drying process. this enables the machine to clear one acre of waste in one hour. the dried powder is 20 times more compressible, thus, reducing the transportation cost by 20 times. otherwise farmers have to spend inr 3,500/acre to bundle and transport the waste to the nearest processing units or burn it in the fields after drying it for 7-10 days. both these methods are not viable, for one, they are very expensive, and second, they are very time-consuming and can delay the sowing of the next crop. hence, moksh is an ideal answer to the waste collection problem, enabling farmers to clear the waste within 24 hours without burning or spending thousands on bundling and transporting it to distant units.
