Dear Lewis Dunnigan
[ ByGen ],
I write in context of the technology that you have developed for producing Active Carbon , by converting / processing ,
Ø Agricultural Waste
Ø Plastic

Activated carbon breakthrough offers solution to global plastic crisis ]
I wish you all success in obtaining funding to commercialize your process
As with everywhere else in the World, this technology is badly needed in India, since , both plastic and agri waste are the biggest pollutants here
Stubble { onsite agri residue after harvest }, burning ( by farmers ) is causing havoc with AQI { Air Quality Index } of most cities in North India, exceeding 360 for past 10 days
A single state of Punjab burns 20 million tons of stubble within 15 days !
According to a government estimate, over 500 million tonnes ( MT ) of agricultural straw are produced every year in the country
· Of this, nearly 362 million tonnes ( from rice-wheat-maize-millet ) , are burnt on the farms
· Amount of surplus crop residue is estimated at 84-141 million tonnes
Do you think your process could use this waste and convert to activated carbon ?
I would like to alert the Indian Government re your process
With regards,
Hemen Parekh
