1 Waste to Energy Research & Technology Council WTERT (India) SOURCE SEGREGATION & COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION FOR MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT - A CASE STUDY FOR INDORE CITY By: Mr. Abhishek Kanojia Asst. Professor SIMS INDORE

2 Introduction About the City Indore About the survey area Results Result Analysis and discussion Conclusion References

3 In Indian Municipal Solid Waste Management (MSWM) practices are followed keenly by the recycling industries, metal, paper, textile and plastics are the major recyclables found in Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) produce in India. At the same time the major population of India is unaware about the waste quality and quantity produce by them. Therefore, we can unknowingly people are throwing the resource known as Municipal Solid Waste, to the open source creating the nuisance and unhygienic conditions surrounding their localities.

5 With the tag of Commercial Capital of Madhya Pradesh, Indore is one of the fastest growing cities of India. With population of over 25 lakhs Indore is producing over 1200 Ton per day(tdp) of MSW (as per Indore Municipal Corporation) And out of which only 500TDP is been treated on the trenching ground while remaining 700 TDP is just kept untreated and causing huge heaps of MSW on the trenching ground area located at Devguradia. The composition of the MSW of Indore mainly consist of organic content (50%), recyclables (18%) and inert and since all these waste are mixed together.

6 To find out the awareness among the people living in residential townships about the source segregation of the SW produce by them and their knowledge about the ideal practice, a study was made. Under this study two residential township were randomly taken and a door to door survey was done to know how people contribute

7 To perform this survey two residential township, SILICON CITY, SAMAR PARK COLONY of Indore with population of about 5000 and 1300 people respectively were taken. Both of these townships are located in different areas of the city. And the common practice of MSW collection is been adopted by the society people.

8 While performing the door to door survey following questionnaires were asked to the people who reside in these townships. Awareness about the dry/wet solid waste? Are they kept their kitchen waste separately? Are they aware about the treatment process of the solid waste they produce daily? Will they be interested to perform Source Segregation if adequate information is provided to them? Are they satisfied with the present practice of MSWM in their city?

10 1. AWARENESS ABOUT THE DRY/WET SOLID WASTE Aware 21% Unaware 79% Aware Unaware

11 2. ARE THEY KEPT THEIR KITCHEN WASTE SEPARATELY Yes 10% Yes NO NO 90%

12 3. ARE THEY AWARE ABOUT THE TREATMENT PROCESS OF THE SOLID WASTE THEY PRODUCE DAILY NO 5% Yes 95% Yes NO

13 4. WILL THEY BE INTERESTED TO PERFORM SOURCE SEGREGATION IF ADEQUATE INFORMATION IS PROVIDED TO THEM No, 10% Yes, 90% Yes No

14 5. ARE THEY SATISFIED WITH THE PRESENT PRACTICE OF MSWM IN THEIR CITY Yes 45% NO 55% Yes NO

15

16 80% of the people are not aware about the dry and wet solid waste concept. No source segregation is been done as 90% of the people do not keep their kitchen waste separate and dispose it along other SW produce by them. Rest 10% replied that they feed the cattle and dispose the kitchen waste on open ground. 90% of the people respond positively over the question that they will readily perform the source segregation if proper awareness and knowledge is spread to them. And they will readily accept the practice of source segregation for MSWM.

17 Regarding the knowledge about the treatment process of their SW; most of them responding YES, about 95%, but when asked them about the process of treatment, they says that they are aware about the collection and transportation of the MSW to the trenching ground and none of them are aware that what exactly happen to the solid waste reached to the trenching ground. Only 45% people were satisfied with the present MSWM practice in their locality. And they are willing that this practice should be

18

19 With the aim of SWATCH BHARAT ABHIYAAN, it is necessary that a complete solution for MSW disposal should bring into existence. In the present time collection and transportation of MSW is majorly done in various municipalities of India. No source segregation is been done by the people, this leads to create large trenching grounds filled with huge heaps of MSW. It not only occupies the land area but also create problem for the public health, underground water sources, and environment. So to avoid such situation a completely different approach should be taken.
