Solid waste management plant
A solid waste management plant is a facility designed to handle and process different types of waste such as household, commercial, and industrial waste. These plants operate through structured processes and use specialised equipment to ensure safe and efficient waste handling.
The main activities at a solid waste management plant include collection, segregation, mechanical sorting, shredding, screening, composting, and recovery of recyclables or energy sources like Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF). The aim is to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills, recover valuable materials, and limit environmental pollution. These facilities play an essential role in maintaining urban hygiene and supporting sustainable waste management practices in India.
Key Functions of Our Waste Management Plants
-
Collection and Handling: Waste is brought in from urban or industrial areas using transport systems like compactors and tippers.
-
Segregation: Using trommel screens, conveyors, and manual stations, waste is separated into organic, recyclable, and non-recyclable fractions.
-
Treatment: Organic waste may go through composting or bio-drying, while recyclables are sorted for recovery.
-
Shredding and Processing: Shredders and fine screens are used to prepare materials for further use, such as RDF (Refuse-Derived Fuel).
-
Final Disposal or Recovery: Remaining waste is either safely disposed of or sent for co-processing in cement plants or energy facilities.
