hospital , institutions,

7. per capita waste generation in India
As per 2011 census, the
377 million people living in
7,935 urban areas generate
1, 70,000 Tonnes of waste
per day or 62 million tonnes
of waste per year.
Average per capita
generation of 450gm per
person per day.
It does not include wastes
picked up by scrap dealers
(kabadiwalas) from
households and from the
streets by rag pickers

9. Why do Indians litter on street
Waste materials do not carry any price
tag
No define waste collection & processing
system are available
Waste is considered as key factor for the
survival of stray animals ( dogs, cow , goat
etc), birds ( crow, squirrel etc) & rag
pickers.
No emphasis on Civic sense
No legal accountability
High population density
No coordination between civic body
& waste generator
Less awareness about “rights &
duties of citizen.
10. Impact of waste generation
As per CPCB report 2012-13,
waste about 1,07,876 TPD, is
dumped in low lying urban areas.
It needs 2,12,752 cubic meter
space every day or 776 hectare of
precious land per year.
World Health Organization (WHO)
has observed that 22 types of
diseases can be prevented/
controlled in India by improving
Waste Management system.
Scientific management of waste
will save, huge financial resources
currently spent on medical services
and the health of our young
11. Towards Scientific waste management
Establishing comprehensive
waste management chain with
participation of all section of society.
Utilization of appropriate
technology for converting the waste
to energy or recycling product.
Commercialization of waste
management chain that involves
1. Investment & returns ,
2. Employment generation,
3.Price tag for all types of waste
materials.
12. Segregation of waste
Waste generator
Collection of waste
Transportation of waste
to the designated
place.

Reuse
Biogas &
manure

Hospital, Institutions

15. rag pickers
Though Rag pickers play important roles in waste
management in urban India, their service are not
recognized.
The population of rag pickers in Indian cities
varies from 500 ( Chennai) to 100000 (Delhi)
depending upon the size of city or urban area.
Among the Rag pickers, about 30 - 40 % are
children below 14 years of age.
Integration : rag pickers – Recycling –
Rehabilitation
Identifying & issuing ID to rag pickers by the civic
bodies.
Formation of Cooperative of rag pickers under
the guidance of civic bodies for dealing with
recyclable items ( collection , storing & directly selling to
industry ) .
Part of the profit of cooperative operation along
with government fund shall be invested for their –
education , health care & permanent shelter.
Night school facility shall be extended to all age
group & gender of rag pickers.
All activities shall be monitored by the civic
16. a. Biomethanation for wet
biodegradable wastes.
b. Conventional microbial
windrow/mechanized/ vermi
composting for wet
biodegradable wastes.
c. Preparation of briquette/
pellets/ fluff as Refuse Derived
Fuel (RDF) from dry high-
calorific value combustible
wastes.
d. Incineration / Gasification /
Pyrolysis for dry high-calorific
value combustible wastes.
e. Plastic wastes to fuel oil
Appropriate Technology for the processing of
waste in Indian context
19. Processing of dry high-calorific value
combustible wastes to form RDF which can
be used as fuel.
20. Processing of dry high-calorific value
combustible wastes to produce electricity
21. Heating of plastic ,
rubber in an oxygen-
free chamber at about
400 degrees celsius is
known as pyrolysis.
As the plastics boil, gas
is separated out and
often reused to fuel the
machine itself. The fuel
is then distilled and
filtered.
Because the entire
process takes place
inside a vacuum and
the plastic is melted -
not burned, minimal to
no resultant toxins are
released into the air, as
all the gases and or
sludge are reused to
23. Plastic waste to fuel
Polyethylene plastic - HDPE (jugs) and
LDPE (bags and films) are basically made
of long hydrocarbons chains.
If those chains are cut into shorter ones by
pyrolysis diesel is obtained
If the chains are further cut gasoline and
eventually burnable gas are obtained
Domestic plastic waste to fuel
converters
It can convert around 25 kg of
shredded plastic into 24 litres of
diesel in 4 hours.
25. As per realistic estimates,
India can produce 32,890
tonnes of RDF each day .
It can currently support 88
power plants of 5 MW each
in a foreseeable future of 5-7
years based on incineration,
gasification or pyrolysis
technologies.
The number of power
plants can increase to 215
plants by 2031 and 556
power plants by 2050
generating 2,780 MW power

27. Why do Indians prefer open area
Toilet inside the boundary of
house is considered unhygienic.
Easy availability of open space
and water body like river, pond,
cannel etc.
Affordability for maintenance of
toilet is limited to middle & upper
class only.
No emphasis on Civic sense
No legal accountability
High population density
Gents and children do not require
privacy.
Society has accepted this fact and
therefore it is not considered as
objectionable.
No availability of public
sanitation facility .
28. low priority on sanitation
Sanitation is considered secondary, in
comparison to food , cloth , shelter &
place of warship .
Only 45% population having access to
proper sanitation facility .
No mass movement have been
organized in this direction.
Improvement in sanitation facilities has
been left to the choice of individuals ,
NGO, Civic body.
Society has accepted this fact and
therefore mindset does not change.
34. Making availability of pay & use sanitation
facility in all public place ( Bus stand, Marketplace
& road side )
35. Fund mobilization for the construction &
maintenance of sanitation facilities
It can be mobilized from the Industrial
house, rich individuals ( film stars, business
men) etc. by extending income tax
exemption facility .
Sanitation facilities shall be operated on PAY
& USE basis .
Total construction cost - purchase of land ,
civil construction , installation of independent
water source ( Bore well) , electric supply etc
is to be borne by the financer.
Maintenance of the premises – i.e. 24 x 7
cleaning & security , collection and operating
cost ( repair , electricity bill) is to be carried
out by the Local civic bodies ( Municipality /
corporation / village panchayat ) through
annual maintenance contract by involving
Local contractor.
