Bio Mining
Bio-Mining of Legacy Waste
Across most Indian cities, managing old dumpsites has become a major challenge. Many landfill sites have already reached their limits and can no longer handle additional waste. As per Swachh Bharat Reports 2020, India loses over 1,250 hectares of valuable land every year due to unscientific and illegal legacy waste dumping. This makes land reclamation an urgent national priority.
India currently recycles only 20–25% of its total waste, leaving a large portion untreated. This untreated waste seeps into the soil, polluting the environment and degrading land quality. That’s where bio-mining of legacy waste plays a vital role — offering an eco-friendly way to reclaim land and reduce landfill pressure.
What is the Bio-Mining Process?
Under the Swachh Bharat Mission, India is actively working towards the vision of “Lakshya Zero Dumpsites” — converting waste dumps into usable land. Bio-mining is a systematic process of excavating, segregating, and processing legacy waste to recover recyclable materials and restore the site for reuse.
Using advanced bio-mining machines, the process helps clean up old landfill sites, separate usable materials, and rehabilitate the land for future development — promoting a cleaner and healthier ecosystem.

Frequently Asked Questions(FAQs)
What types of waste can be treated through bio mining?
Bio mining is ideal for municipal solid waste, dumpsites, and organic waste that contain decomposable material.
Is bio mining safe for the environment?
Yes, it’s a natural process using non-toxic microorganisms that pose no harm to humans or the environment.
How long does a bio mining project take?
It depends on the size and condition of the site — typically between a few weeks to several months.
What happens to the recovered materials?
Recyclables are processed, compost is reused, and inert residues are safely disposed of.
