2. Why Solid Waste Management ?
Solid waste generated by domestic, commercial and industrial activities is often
disposed indiscriminately.
Unscientific management of such wastes leads to serious environmental problem.
It is very common to find large heaps of garbage in disorganized manner at every nook
and corner of the city. In sanitary method being adopted for disposal of solid wastes is a
serious health concern.
During monsoon season, run-off and high humid conditions increases the health
hazardous. The landfill site, which are not well maintained are prone to ground water
contamination due to leachate percolation.
Open dumping of municipal solid waste serves as breeding ground for disease vector
such as flees, mosquitoes, cockroaches, rates and other pests. High risks of spreading
disease like typhoid, cholera, dysentery, yellow fever, encephalitis, plague and dengue
fever may not be rule out.

8. Door to Door Collection of Garbage
As per the Municipal Solid Waste (Management and Handling) Rules 2000, notified
by the Ministry of Environment and Forests, Government of India, Vadodara
Municipal Corporation has introduced Door-to-Door Garbage collection system
from March-2006.
The garbage from residential and commercial area is directly collected from the
door-step by specially designed closed body vehicles. All four zones of the city are
covered by Door-to-Door Garbage collection system.
More than 50% of the total waste of the city is collected by this system. The Door
to Door Garbage Collection system vehicles are equipped with GPS monitoring
system from November, 2010.

9. Transportation of waste
Waste transportation is being carried out with the help of
dumper trucks, container lifting vehicles, refuse
compactors and transportation vehicles.
The collected waste is transported from the storage
receptacles to the landfill site in dumper placer and closed
dumper trucks. A dumper truck is fully covered with
plastic/tarpaulin sheets during transportation. In view of
the present city population and area, the total number of
containers required for collecting city waste should be
around 650.
Since VMC has commenced door-to-door waste
collection, the collected waste is being transported directly
to the compost plant/disposal site. The existing 261
containers are/would be sufficient for city waste storage.

10. Waste Disposal
Vadodara Municipal Corporation has also developed its second processing plant
adjoining to the landfill cell phase I site of 300 MT/day (expandable up to 700 TPD)
capacity based on Integrated Processing Technology with the intention to minimize
waste load on the landfill site and to increase the life span of the landfill site
thereby.
The Integrated Processing facility is consisting of composting of biodegradable
matter, pelletization, recovery of recyclables such as metals, rubber, plastics etc.,
RDF and manufacturing of sand and eco bricks. Only 20% of the total incoming
waste is going for the landfilling by this technology. The processing plant is
operationalized from February-2010. The tenure of the agreement is of 10 years
which will expire in 2018.

11. Issues Pertaining to SWM
Mixing of bio-medical waste with municipal solid waste
Disposal of waste with municipal solid waste by a large number of private clinics and
hospitals
Burning of waste at storage places and dumping site
Odor nuisance surrounding compost plant and dumping site, during the monsoon
season
Presence of waste on the streets, lanes and by-lanes in the absence of a proper disposal
facility
System of door-to-door collection which has commenced, but needs 100% coverage
Lack of organized rag-pickers
Poor participation from NGO/CBO
