Abstract

Ferrous foundries generate lots of amount of waste. India is the world’s second largest producer of castings and also one of the top 10 in terms of average production per plant, but our share of the global market is below 2 percent. It is estimated around 5000 Foundries are operating all over India. Many Indian foundries have not implemented new environmental conscious technology because they are not aware the source of wastes in their foundry and intensity of wastes. The objective of this paper is to investigate foundry wastes for implementation of cleaner production in foundry particularly for MSEs (Micro and Small enterprise) to sustain the environment for Indian foundries.
