SOLID WASTE SEGREGATION PLANT

[EIRI/EDPR/1580] J.C.377

INTRODUCTION

Waste is a continually growing problem at global and regional as well as at local levels. Solid wastes arise from human and animal activities that are normally discarded as useless or unwanted. In other words, solid wastes may be defined as the organic and inorganic waste materials produced by various activities of the society and which have lost their value to the first user. As the result of rapid increase in production and consumption, urban society rejects and generates solid material regularly which leads to considerable increase in the volume of waste generated from several sources such as, domestic wastes, commercial wastes, institutional wastes and industrial wastes of most diverse categories. Management of solid waste may be defined as that discipline associated with the control of generation, storage, collection, transfer and transport, processing, and disposal of solid wastes in a manner that is in accord with the best principles of public health, economics, engineering, conservation, aesthetics, and other environmental considerations. In its scope, solid waste management includes all administrative, financial, legal, planning and engineering functions involved in the whole spectrum of solutions to problems of solid wastes thrust upon the community by its inhabitants. Solid wastes have the potential to pollute all the vital components of living environment (i.e., air, land and water) at local and at global levels. The problem is compounded by trends in consumption and production patterns and by continuing urbanization of the world.  The problem is more acute in developing nations than in developed nations as the economic growth as well as urbanization is more rapid. 

The government of India started encouraging proper management of solid waste as early as 1960’s by giving loans for setting composting plants for MSW. The government of India over the years has taken many initiatives and implemented new technologies and methods. With the rapid urbanization, the problem of the MSWM problem has compounded and India is awakening to the magnitude of the problem. Due to increased public awareness of MSWM, a public litigation was filed and resulted in the Municipal Solid Waste (Management and Handling) Rules, 2000. Government for the first time now has included private organizations in providing this public service. New methods of storage, collection, transportation, processing and disposal are being implemented. It is necessary to evaluate the current process at this stage to understand if the methods being implemented are suitable for the Indian scenario and to identify the lacuna in the methods being adopted.
