Nimbua Greenfield (Punjab) Association operates a common facility for the reception, storage, treatment, pre-processing, and disposal of hazardous and domestic hazardous waste, in accordance with the Hazardous and Other Wastes (Management and Transboundary Movement) Rules, 2016.
The visit was facilitated by Er. Harbir Singh Multani (Retd. Chief Engineer, PPCB and Executive Director), along with Vinod Puri (Manager - Finance and Facilities), Avinash (HR Manager), Dr. Ranjana, Gaurav Thakur (Environmental Engineer), and Nitin.
The programme began with an overview of the facility’s infrastructure and operational framework through a detailed model, followed by a presentation on key processes, environmental compliance measures, and management practices adopted by the organisation. Students then undertook a guided tour of the facility, observing various operational units and gaining first-hand exposure to industrial and environmental management practices.
The visit was conducted under the guidance of Prof. Anupreet Kaur Mavi, Director, UIAMS, and coordinated by Dr. Naveen Kumar, who accompanied the students.
The visit provided practical insights into waste management infrastructure and contributed to bridging the gap between academic learning and field-based application.
