Description
Devotional waste (garbage) which is mostly found on the temples now a days are worship flowers, plastic bags of worship favour, all worship related waste, leaves of trees, mostly dumped waste is coconuts shells and flowers etc. All this waste either thrown into a garbage areas or thrown into a river but we have to change it and have to use it for purpose like composting or extractions of essential oils or any other extraction which could help us to prevent the garbage areas and river water contamination, When adding grass to a compost pile, mix it thoroughly with leaves so it does not compact and restrict airflow. In maximum quantity used flowers for worship in temples are rose, jasmine, marigold, hibiscus, etc. This waste can be used as multiple ways to produce organic compost for agriculture purpose and can help to save nature mainly from water pollution and other pollution as well. Mostly we can use these waste as vermicomposting, composting organic matter, dyes extraction, extraction of oils, and bio-gas formation. The waste can be used and managed to get valuable products which will guide to a fresh and pollution free nature.
