Post on 07-Jul-2020
General Observations :
1. The data projected in DPRs is differing from the real time data appraised
by the Commissioners during the meetings for all most all the
municipalities in terms of Population, area, existing equipment etc.
Commissioners shall provide ULB- specific information to the Consultant
and take ownership of DPR.
2. The estimates of the solid waste quantity generated and presented were
not matching to the ULB information. The consultants shall reconcile the
figures and arrive at the final quantities.
3. The analysis of the solid waste with respect to composition is not
realistic, which may be due to improper sampling collection or testing
procedure. The consultants shall engage a NABL accredited laboratory
other than one engaged earlier for re – sampling of MSW in all the ULBs
(vertically composite samples shall be collected at each monitoring
station). These samples shall be analyzed for component fraction and
Physico - chemical parameters. 3 additional sample collection per ULB
(Exiting old dump, fresh MSW at dump site, fresh MSW at dump site,
random sample in the city) shall be taken and analyzed wherever
composition does not reflect the actual composition.
4. The specific areas of disposal like existing land or new area of inert
disposal was not mentioned. In the calculations the consultant should
have made an estimate of the inert material left out after the conversion
or disposing to integrated Municipal Solid waste processing plant. The
inert material requires how much land for 20 years (up to 2030) required
and whether land has to be acquired or the existing land is sufficient to
dispose was not mentioned.
5. The location specific studies were not made as to which type of facility is
suitable. The consultant should take in to cognizance of the existing
system and prepare the draft accordingly.
6. Study does not reflect the ground water conditions, soil percolation back
ground air quality in the existing dump yards and the habitation or land
use land cover in the existing dup yards or new dump yards identified.
7. The DPR’s in nut shall should reflect the local conditions and should
suggest specific solid waste management facility that is specific to that
locality. The draft DPRs are more or less generalized rather than specific
to that location.
8. The equipment should be minimized after calculating the trips and
available machines. The optimization of transport is not discussed.
Prioritization and phasing out of the activities is not discussed by the
consultants.
Review of Draft DPR Pertaining to ULBs of Srikakulam,
Visakhapatnam and Vizianagaram Districts
Prepared by Prof. S.Ramakrishna Rao
It is learnt that the Swachha Andhra Corporation has assigned work to various
consultants and got prepared the DPR’s to nearly 110 municipalities including
corporations. To review the DPR’s different committees are formed region wise to
discuss them along with commissioners of respective municipalities. For Districts of
Visakhapatnam Srikakulam and Vizianagaram the following are drafted to review the
DPR’s.
1. Sri. Suresh from SAC AP
2. Prof. S.Ramakrishna rao, Retired Professor, Punlic Health and
Environmental Engieering, Andhra University
3. Smt. Asha Jyothi, R.D, Municipal Administration.
The meetings were held on 28th in Municipality of Srikakulam, 29th in Municipal
Corporation of Visakahapatnam, Suryabagh and on 30th in Vizianagaram , Conference
hall of municipality. The meetings were held in the presence of respective
commissioners and the following have presented the detailed reports on the
municipalities.
1. Sri Hari represented Feed Back Infra Technologies
2. Dr. Maley,
The meetings were started with the address by Smt. Asha Jyothi who explained the
importance of the management of Solid waste generated in their municipalities and
asked them to pay attention to adopt the technologies suggested by the consultants.
She also asked the respective staff to interact with the consultants to give correct data
in order to make the DPR’s a close to reality.
Sri Suresh representing Swatch Bharat Corporation of Andhra Pradesh has high
lighted the Governments intention to make the municipalities self reliant in managing
the solid wastes by adopting a suitable technology to convert them either to organic
manure or convert it into waste to energy. He also advised them to adopt the regional
integrated waste treatment facility.
Prof.S.Ramakrishna rao has suggested that the project reports should be site specific
and the consultants should bring out the aspects of managing the solid wastes
generated in the respective municipalities. If after going through the MSW generated
the Consultant suggests
That an integrated facility is viable then various options should be discussed to treat
the Municipal solid waste depending the type of waste.
The consultant Hari has presented in detail the solid waste generated and the facilities
that existed in the respective municipalities. The consultants presented the
characteristics and possible conversion of the existing solid waste .In his presentation
he brought out the status of the solid waste generated and present existing practices
adopted in order to appraise the members.
Dr. Maley has explained in detail the various processes adopted to make use of the
solid waste in order to reduce the land devaluation and reduction. He has explained
how the solid waste having organic and inorganic materials can be put to use and how
inert materials can be disposed. He has stressed the need to go for the MSW
management to recover it to maximum so that the precious land which is reducing
can be saved and the recovered material can be reused or recycled. He has also
explained the types of machinery and bins used or developed for efficient storage.
Some videos were also shown to the participants to appreciate the real time processing
where in the solid waste conversions to diesel, Refuse derived pellets, organic manure
and energy are produced.
The following Municipalities and corporations were discussed.
Srikakulam District on 28-09-2015
1. Amadalavalasa 2. Srikakulam 3. Palasa 4. Itchapuram 5. Rajam
6.Palakonda
Visakhapatnam District on 29-09-2015
1.Narsipatnam 2. Yelamanchili 3. Visakhapatnam
Vizianagaram District on 30-09-2015
1.Bobbili 2.Parvathipuram 3.Nellimarla 4.Saluru 5.Vizianagaram
It is observed that already some municipalities are observing the concepts of
two bin systems and adopted their own technologies and convenient methods to
dispose of the Municipal solid wastes. It is worth noting that the Municipalities are
also earning money by disposing the organic manure produced using the Municipal
solid waste.Some municipalities developed the three wheeler riksha’s which carry the
buckets by making a frame to carry the buckets. The segregation is done meticulously
in Salur Municipality and the organic manure is also produced. It is stated that they
are earning at least Rs. 15,000 per month through disposal of solid waste. In the
reviewed municipalities Yelamanchili Municipality has acquired an incinerator
donated by local Chairperson at a cost of 5 Lakhs which burns and the energy is not
recovered. In almost all the Municipal corporations and Municipalities the solid waste
is neither properly manages nor properly disposed.
It is a common plea by the administrators that to handle the solid wastes
properly trained manpower is necessary and adequate hands are required to manage
it properly. The collection and disposal was possible to 70-80 % in a day. Some
municipalities have started campaigning and motivating the people towards
segregation at source. In some municipalities the school children are sensitized to
handle the solid waste and many competitions were conducted to improve the
situation. In most municipalities the rag pickers are not active.
Two Municipalities have also presented their activities and how they are
managing the solid waste as a success story.( Saluru and Yelamanchili)
Observations on the DPR’S presented by the consultant:
Data Presented:
1.The data was not collected properly by the field personnel as in all most all the
municipalities several changes were made in Population, area , equipment existing
etc.,
2. The municipalities were re organized after the preparation of the DPR.
3. The estimates of the solid waste generated and presented were not matching.
4. The analysis of the solid wastes with respect to composition is not realistic.
5. The inert materials include glass and paper which are recoverable and can be
segregated.
6. The specific areas of disposal like existing land or new area of inert disposal was not
mentioned. In the calculations the consultant should have made an estimate of the
inert material left out after the conversion or disposing to tintegrated Municipal Solid
waste processing plant. The inert material requires how much land for 20 years ( up
to 2030) required and whether land has to be acquired or the existing land is sufficient
to dispose was not mentioned.
7. The location specific studies were not made as to which type of facility is suitable.
8. In the DPR’s it is interesting to note that all kinds of treatment options are given to
even small municipalities without suggesting which type of disposal is appropriate
depending on the type of solid waste generated.
9. The DPR’s should have taken into cognizance of the existing facilities and should
have suggested that the type of waste that can be sent to the integrated plants the
may come up.
10. The concentration is mostly on the type of equipment to be procured and the costs
are to be checked.
11. Study does not reflect the ground water conditions, soil percolation back ground
air quality in the existing dump yards and the habitation or land use land cover in the
existing dup yards or new dump yards identified.
12. Almost all the municipalities are given lechate management and treatment units
irrespective of the planning of transferring the MSW to integrated plants.
13. The DPR’s in nut shall should reflect the local conditions and what I can do with
the solid waste that is specific to that locality while the reports are more or less
generalized rather than specific to that location.
14. The waste generated should not be mixed with hospital wastes even in the small
municipalities and should be segregated to be sent to the hazardous waste treatment
units.
15. The DPR appears to be a general document as there no specific treatment
suggested while all the options are given. The consultant should give a suitable
suggestion to each Municipality so that they can adopt the system depending on the
calorophilic value and nutrients present.
16. The consultant should have attempted to know the quality of the fertilizer to /
organic manure so that te heavy metals may be absorbed easily by the way side
plantation. Though bio reclamation takes place the plant health is also equally
important as bio accumulation takes place.
Suggestions to the Swatch Andhra Corporation:
1. A thorough revision of the DPR’s is essential.
2. The discrepancies between the real time data and collected data should be
normalized.
3. The DPR’s prepared should be area specific and the consultant should take
in to cognizance of the existing system and prepares the draft accordingly.
4. The equipment should be minimized after calculating the trips and available
machines.
5. The optimization of transport is not discussed .
6. The report mentions that the hospital waste is handled by the MSW
workers. Maridi eco systems are collecting and processing it.
7. The table shows that glass and metals are included in the inert which is
incorrect.
8. It is interesting to note that the consultant firm has put up many objectives
to prepare the report by most of them are fulfilled.
9. The processing and putting the solid waste to use shold be wholistically
seen to all Andhra Pradesh.
10. The approaches can be phase wise and need not be carried out at once.
