Organic Recycling Systems Limited (ORSL) has announced that its research and innovation arm, ORSRIC, has been awarded a prestigious international research grant for the project titled “Danish-Thai-Indian Circular Bioeconomy Network for Mango Waste Valorisation.”

The initiative is coordinated by the University of Southern Denmark and brings together leading research partners from Thailand, IIT Mumbai, and ORSL, India. ORSL’s role as a core industrial partner highlights its leadership in biowaste valorisation, bioenergy production, and circular economy technologies.

The project has been granted DKK 1,028,800 by the Danish Agency for Higher Education and Science (DAHES) under the Global Innovation Network Programme (GINP). The collaborative initiative will run from January 2026 to March 2027, marking a significant milestone in strengthening global cooperation in circular bioeconomy research.

This international effort focuses on developing advanced technologies and sustainable business models for converting agricultural residues—particularly mango waste—into high-value bioproducts, bioenergy, and eco-friendly materials. ORSL will leverage its extensive expertise in anaerobic digestion, biogas and CBG production, organic waste management, and commercialisation of scalable waste-to-value solutions.

Commenting on the development, Dr. Manju Tanwar, Head of ORS-RIC, said: "We are honoured to be part of this prestigious global network. Our collaboration with the University of Southern Denmark, IIT Mumbai, and our Thai research partners strengthens ORSL’s ongoing commitment to advancing circular bioeconomy innovation. This project will enable knowledge exchange, joint research, and industrial-scale applications that benefit farmers, industry stakeholders, and the environment."
