Waste management through implementation of ‘white biotechnology’ and ‘carbon economy’ has significantly contributed to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and growth of waste biomass-based economy. The global impacts of adaptation of these concepts have actually caused increased awareness for safer disposal of waste without landfilling. Although India is among the leading countries that promote white biotechnology and carbon economy, waste management has not been well addressed in terms of bioconversion of waste into products. It is important to delve deep into the basics of these concepts and analyse the scope of applications.References
