How NSBM contributes
NSBM promotes responsible consumption and production through waste-management research, circular-economy initiatives, sustainable resource use and student innovation. The university's research portfolio includes waste-to-energy technologies, municipal solid-waste utilisation, agricultural-residue conversion, waste-derived materials and circular-economy solutions. NSBM researchers are also working on an eco-friendly briquette project using municipal solid waste and agricultural residues, with potential utilisation of bottom ash in construction. In addition, research presented through TIDAC explored a blockchain-based Smart Campus Food Waste Management Platform designed to improve tracking and reduction of food waste in NSBM cafeterias.
