Some of our projects
Collaboration with Ecopath
Lagos, Nigeria
Since July 2021
Ecopath is a for-purpose startup developing a circular economy for photocopier, printer and duplicator cartridges in Nigeria. Remanufacturing cartridges sounds like a simple idea, but until now it has not been done anywhere in West Africa. I am helping them with developing a business plan, with branding and fundraising.
Collaboration with ELMAR
England, UK
Since Mar 2021
Ecological Landfill Mining and Recycling (ELMAR) is a non-profit dedicated to tackling breached historic landfills in the UK that are leaching pollution into the environment. I am helping with identifying potential strategic partnerships and with researching technologies for landfill mining and recycling of different types of extracted waste.
Collaboration with Premier Enviro Solutions

Feb-Aug 2021
Premier Enviro Solutions is a social enterprise with a mission to provide innovative, sustainable and affordable waste management solutions. I am helping them with projects related to processing plastic waste into building blocks, and safe disposal of medical waste.
Collaboration with LAWMA
Lagos, Nigeria
Jan-Jun 2021
Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) is developing a new waste management strategy for Lagos, a city of more than 22 million people. I am advising them on technologies, partnerships and funding mechanisms that could be appropriate for this city.
Collaboration with Pyro-degrade Energy
Nairobi, Kenya
Jan-Jun 2021
Pyro-degrade Energy is a for-purpose startup that developed a technology to produce pyro-diesel from plastic waste. Pyro-diesel is an environmentally friendly diesel substitute - it is almost sulphur free and has a low carbon footprint. I am helping them with fundraising for their first industrial scale plant.
Consulting for Gikoko Kogyo Indonesia
Jakarta, Indonesia

I helped with greenhouse gas emissions reduction calculations to evaluate a municipal solid waste infrastructure project involving multiple technologies.

Collaboration with Green Worms
Kerala, India
Dec 2020 - Jan 2021
Green Worms introduce waste collection services in small coastal towns in India. I was helping them with developing external communications strategy. My goals were to improve their engagement with stakeholders and to assist with initiating collaborations with organisations outside India.
Collaboration with Forbi Perise Eyong Nyosai
Buea, Cameroon
Sep-Dec 2020
Forbi's goal was to kickstart a PET bottle collection scheme in schools in Buea, Cameroon to both increase the plastic recycling rate in the country and to educate kids about waste related challenges. I helped Forbi with writing the project proposal, making a budget and with the application process.
