Journal ArticleDOI
Challenges and strategies for effective plastic waste management during and post COVID-19 pandemic
Kumar Raja Vanapalli,Hari Bhakta Sharma,Ved Prakash Ranjan,Biswajit Samal,Jayanta Bhattacharya,Brajesh Dubey,Sudha Goel +6 more
TL;DR: Mandating scientific sterilization and the use of sealed bags for safe disposal of contaminated plastic wastes should be an immediate priority to reduce the risk of transmission to sanitation workers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Circular economy approach in solid waste management system to achieve UN-SDGs: Solutions for post-COVID recovery.
Hari Bhakta Sharma,Kumar Raja Vanapalli,Biswajit Samal,V.R. Sankar Cheela,Brajesh Dubey,Jayanta Bhattacharya +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the impact of COVID 19 on the progress of the SDGs and provided insight into how green recovery stimulus, driven by circular economy (CE)-based solid waste management (SWM) could assist in attaining the intended targets of UN-SDGs.
Book ChapterDOI
Emissions and Environmental Burdens Associated With Plastic Solid Waste Management
TL;DR: In this paper, the types of plastics and their properties, plastic production industry, plastic waste generation statistics, compares the different types of plastic waste management techniques economically and environmentally, and global prospects of plastic in the future.
Journal ArticleDOI
(3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane and iron rice straw biochar composites for the sorption of Cr (VI) and Zn (II) using the extract of heavy metals contaminated soil.
Isha Medha,Subhash Chandra,Kumar Raja Vanapalli,Biswajit Samal,Jayanta Bhattacharya,Bidus Kanti Das +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, an iron and (3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) biochar composites were prepared from the biochar, which was produced through pyrolysis of rice straw at 400 and 600°C, using the chemical processes with an aim that the doping of pristine biochar structure with the Fe and NH2 radicals would enhance the removal of heavy metals like Cr (VI) and Zn (II) adsorption in both aqueous solution and soil.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibitory and synergistic effects on thermal behaviour and char characteristics during the co-pyrolysis of biomass and single-use plastics
Kumar Raja Vanapalli,Jayanta Bhattacharya,Biswajit Samal,Subhash Chandra,Isha Medha,Brajesh Dubey +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the co-pyrolytic behavior of single-use plastics (Polystyrene, Low-density polyethylene) and Eucalyptus biomass was investigated at variable temperatures.
