Nirmala founded Vivam Agrotech, an organization that deals in solid waste management. ‘Do not waste, waste’ is the mantra of the organization that uses several environment friendly ways for solid waste disposal. Vikram Agrotech uses vermin-composting systems for disposal of farm and garden waste and bacterial composting for municipal solid waste disposal. Disposal of kitchen
waste through biogas systems, which is then used for the generation of electricity, is another area of operations for the organization.
Acquiring seed funding and generating awareness about the concept of solid waste management was a huge challenge for Nirmala. Nonetheless, her perseverance and commitment to the issue helped her overcome these challenges and build a company that today is making waves in the solid waste management space.
