1. What is PWCP?
PWCP stands for "Plastic Waste Control Project," aiming to manage India's plastic waste issue. It employs technology developed by Chanakya Bhaskar to centralize solutions, create a formula, and expand across cities. The goal is a plastic waste-controlled India, establishing "Bharat Swachhata Kendra (BSK)" in each municipal corporation for people's welfare.

2. What is WPPM Technology?
WPPM, or Waste Plastic Product Machine, converts sub-100 micron plastic waste directly into usable forms like bricks and road dividers. Municipal councils have successfully used this technology, making plastic bricks for construction, including insulation walls.

3. Details about Plastic Dam Technique?
The Plastic Dam technique offers a pollution-free solution to plastic pollution and water conservation. The first Plastic Dam in Aravade used 17.5 tons of compressed municipal waste plastic, freeing 148 villages and two municipal corporations from plastic pollution while conserving over 25 lakh liters of water.

4. What does DR indicate in the logo?
DR signifies "Designed by Chanakya Bhaskar," representing diverse inventions united under this distinctive logo.

5. What are DR Products?
DR Products result from the Waste Plastic Product Machine, encompassing various creations like DR blocks. These compressed waste plastic items are formed using indirect heat.

6. How does the Waste Plastic Product Machine work?
The machine operates based on the "Golden theory of waste plastic material" published in the "The International Journal Of Engineering And Science (IJES)." It transforms waste plastic from solid to semi-liquid stage, allowing shaping into useful products.

7. Effect of WPPM on the environment?
WPPM transforms waste plastic from solid to semi-liquid, significantly reducing air pollution compared to burning.

8. Effect of DR Products on the environment?
DR Products mitigate plastic pollution by transforming waste plastic into usable forms, benefiting the environment.

9. Where can DR Products be used?
DR Products find application in road dividers, footpath blocks, and plastic bricks.

10. How much plastic is needed for DR products?
For a 15x9x6 inch DR product, approximately 2 kg of plastic is required. The quantity depends on the specific product, with an average of 900 gm of product obtained from 1 kg of waste plastic.

11. Creating strength of DR Block?
The creating strength of a DR Block is above 24 N/mm².

12. Customers of WPPM (manual)?
WPPM (manual) is suitable for areas with up to 100 population, such as apartments, small villages, and plastic product companies.

13. Which inventions are manufactured in DRI?
DRI produces the Waste Plastic Product Machine and Plastic Dam.

14. Customers of WPPM (automation)?
WPPM (automation) is recommended for areas with populations above 5000, including municipal corporations, industrial zones, and district garbage depots.

15. What is required for Swachh Bharat?
i) Set a minimum financial incentive for waste plastic (Rs 10/Kg).
ii) Establish "Bharat Swachhata Kendra" under Swachh Bharat Abhiyan.
iii) Operate the Kendra as per the defined structure.
iv) Formulate PWCP and replicate it across India to control plastic.
v) Implement PWCP formula in every city to achieve a plastic-controlled India.

16. Concept of Bharat Swachhata Kendra?
The Kendra operates under Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, accepting waste plastic, processing it using the Waste Plastic Product Machine to create DR products, and utilizing them for people's welfare. Unprocessed plastic is used for constructing Plastic Dams.
