Project Name : Going Beyond Green Chemistry
Theme Name : Natural Resource & their Conservation
To prepare URBAN SOIL using chemical effluents from school labs, biodegradable wastes, road silt and observing its result on
plants.
We can only imagine the amount of chemical effluents disposed by 5000 school of Delhi multiplied by the schools of India and the world. With this project, the effluents are unused.
Chemical effluents of useful nutrients from chemistry labs are reused to help in the growth of plants, thus reducing the amount of effluents drained which adds more toxic burden in water bodies and enhancing the growth of a plant.
Method
The neutralized effluents of minerals (which benefits plants), which are discarded during salt analysis are used for the growth of plants.
Bio degradable household and lab wastes are added along, to enhance the growth of the plant.
Road silt which is considered a non- useful city burden is used, thus conserving resources.
Application
This project deals with a global issue which can be practiced at a local level.
The project helps in reducing the toxic burden on water bodies with nil cost of money.
It can be used in small scale industries and schools.
Name of the School: Father Angel School, Gautam Nagar, New Delhi.
