The systematic approach will also address better social security measures, job creation and impact livelihoods for the informal sector engagements. Mainstreaming Safai Sathis (waste pickers) will open new opportunities and lead to more sustainable ways of collection, segregation, processing and recycling of plastics. The project also introduces technology applications to integrate the waste supply value chain and build Cloud based digital governance and traceability.
Swach Bharat Abhiyan Challenges and Prospectsijtsrd
Swach Bharat Abhiyan, it means that clean India mission it is a national level campaign launched by the Government of India on 2nd October 2014 to accelerate the efforts to achieve universal sanitation coverage. It is a major step towards the protection of degrading environment. The important objects of the mission include elimination of open defecation, conversion of insanitary toilets to pour flush toilets, eradication of manual scavenging and above all to bring about a behavioral change in people regarding healthy sanitation practices. It also ensures public participation in achieving these objectives. The campaign aims to achieve its objectives on 2019 as a tribute to Mahatma Gandhi on his 150th birth anniversary. The important objective of the SBM is that to improve the level of cleanliness and to make open defecation free. Swach Bharat mission has had the biggest domino effect in the world. Because it has addressed the centuries old practices on open defecation and it has had major health and economic impact. According to reports, 11 states are now open defecation free namely Sikkim, Himachal Pradesh, Kerala, Uttarakhand, Haryana, Gujarat, Chandigarh, Daman and Diu, Arunachal Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Meghalaya. India, which had sanitation coverage of mere 41.92 per cent in 2014 has increased its coverage to 63.94 per cent, and this improvement is being viewed as a major success of the campaign. More than 3.5 crore toilets have been built under the mission in two years compared 83 lakh toilets built in 10 years between 2001 and 2011 under the Total Sanitation Campaign, as per the Ministry of Drinking Water and Sanitation. Not only is it a sharp increase in the number of toilets built under any national sanitation programme, but the pace of constructing toilets under Swach Bharat has been speedier as well. Nearing three years of completion, the campaign has now also laid its focus on the other aspects of sanitation such as behavioral change, piped water supply to toilets and drainage. However, it has been clearly declared that the campaign is not only the duty of the government but each and every citizen of the country is equally responsible to keep the nation clean or swatch.

Solid waste management (SWM) is one of the major environmental issues in cities of many
developing countries, including Nepal. Urbanization, Industrialization and economic
development has led to increasing generation of municipal solid waste (MSW). The use of
products that generate hazardous waste is another concern. Unmanaged disposal of medical
wastes from hospitals and clinics also contribute to pollution and public health hazards in the
localities. Therefore, SWM has become a major concern for the municipalities of Nepal. The
total sample size of 21 from the households, Restaurants, Hotels, commercial shops (including
Fruit shop, Barber shop, Spectacle shop, Library, Book shop etc.) were collected around
Kathmandu municipality.
Jaipur faces challenges in solid waste management due to inefficient collection, dumping, and recycling systems. Currently, only 60% of waste is collected and dumped in four open sites, while recycling rates are low due to insufficient infrastructure. This leads to environmental pollution, public health issues, and illegal dumping. The government is taking initiatives like constructing recycling centers, promoting composting, and building waste-to-energy plants. Stakeholder engagement through resident participation, contractor involvement, and awareness campaigns are also emphasized to improve Jaipur's solid waste management.
The document discusses waste management in India and Udupi specifically. It defines different types of waste like municipal solid waste and industrial waste. It explains that waste management involves collection, transport, disposal, and recycling of waste. It provides details on waste generation amounts in major Indian cities. It also discusses regulations and management of specific waste streams like plastic, e-waste, hazardous waste, and more. It notes that Udupi uses an integrated system of door-to-door collection and landfilling but still faces issues like lack of awareness and irregular services. The conclusion is that India's waste situation requires a holistic approach that addresses both present and long-term solutions.
CleanCredit is a Incentive based Waste Management System which could make India trash free and help achieve the goal of Swacch Bharat before the deadline.
The document discusses the need for improved solid waste management in India through public-private partnerships (PPPs). Currently, urban local bodies (ULBs) are responsible for waste management but lack resources and capacity. PPPs can bring in private sector efficiencies through financial and managerial autonomy. The Solid Waste Management Rules of 2016 provide a regulatory framework for waste segregation, management responsibilities, and landfill criteria to facilitate effective PPP models. PPPs in waste-to-energy generation through technologies like incineration can help address the waste management challenge while generating energy revenues.
This document summarizes the existing solid waste management system and issues in Bharatpur City, India.

Solid waste management and treatment .pptxaazmi mohamed
Solid waste management involves segregating waste at source into biodegradable, non-biodegradable, recyclable and other categories. Waste is collected door-to-door and transported to transfer stations where further segregation occurs. Biodegradable waste is processed through methods like windrow composting or sent to waste processing units. Non-recyclable and non-biodegradable waste is disposed of at designated sites while recyclable waste is sold to vendors. Efforts are underway to ban single use plastics and promote alternatives through public awareness campaigns. Legacy waste is being removed from landfill sites using biomining techniques.
This document provides an overview of waste management systems and practices in different countries presented by Rachel, Phil, Gautam and Adrian.

Valuation of Environment: A Study on Willingness to Pay for Improved Solid Wa...inventionjournals
ABSTRACT : Economic valuation of environment is not an easy but controversial task. Because putting a price tag on environment seems to be impossible. But economists are busy valuing everything in terms of money. From economic point of view valuation studies are much more required now days to find out the priorities of the people. Similarly this study has tried to find out how much value people put on a clean environment in terms of their willingness to pay for improved waste management. This study uses a contingent valuation method to estimate the willingness to pay of the households living in the township of Paradip Port Trust, Odisha. It also uses a multiple linear regression model to find out the factors which influence the willingness to pay of the households. The study reveals that almost 63% of the households are willing to pay which establishes a good quantum of expected revenue from the public in the form of a fee or tax.

Over 300 metric tons of waste is generated daily but only 180-200 metric tons is collected. Existing disposal methods like open dumping are unacceptable. There is a lack of proper waste storage, collection, and processing infrastructure. Improving waste management is important for public health, the environment, and achieving sustainability goals. Solutions include investing in sanitary landfills, waste conversion facilities, segregated collection, awareness campaigns, and increasing SCC's capacity for waste management.
CASE STUDIES - Urban Initiatives of Waste Management Across IndiaFaisal Hassan, MPP
The document summarizes urban waste management initiatives across four Indian municipalities - Sikkim, Chandigarh, Pune, and an unidentified fourth municipality. For Sikkim, it describes waste collection processes, a zero waste village program, and education campaigns partnering with schools. For Chandigarh, it outlines door-to-door collection but notes a lack of recycling and issues with landfill overflow. For Pune, it discusses the municipal corporation's decentralized approach incorporating informal workers and NGOs, as well as composting and energy programs.

Monitor indicators of genetic diversity from space using Earth Observation dataSpatial Genetics
Genetic diversity within and among populations is essential for species persistence. While targets and indicators for genetic diversity are captured in the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, assessing genetic diversity across many species at national and regional scales remains challenging. Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) need accessible tools for reliable and efficient monitoring at relevant scales. Here, we describe how Earth Observation satellites (EO) make essential contributions to enable, accelerate, and improve genetic diversity monitoring and preservation. Specifically, we introduce a workflow integrating EO into existing genetic diversity monitoring strategies and present a set of examples where EO data is or can be integrated to improve assessment, monitoring, and conservation. We describe how available EO data can be integrated in innovative ways to support calculation of the genetic diversity indicators of the GBF monitoring framework and to inform management and monitoring decisions, especially in areas with limited research infrastructure or access. We also describe novel, integrative approaches to improve the indicators that can be implemented with the coming generation of EO data, and new capabilities that will provide unprecedented detail to characterize the changes to Earth’s surface and their implications for biodiversity, on a global scale.

Trichogramma spp. is an efficient egg parasitoids that potentially assist to manage the insect-pests from the field condition by parasiting the host eggs. To mass culture this egg parasitoids effectively, we need to culture another stored grain pest- Rice Meal Moth (Corcyra Cephalonica). After rearing this pest, the eggs of Corcyra will carry the potential Trichogramma spp., which is an Hymenopteran Wasp. The detailed Methodologies of rearing both Corcyra Cephalonica and Trichogramma spp. have described on this ppt.

Researchmethodology
SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT
The Collection,transportationanddisposal of municipal solidwaste is
an obligatory functionof the Madurai Corporation.The Municipal
SolidWaste mainly comprises waste from households,market,
commercial establishments,hotels,hospitals andindustries in the
town. The public health department of the corporation,headed by
City Health Officer and Assistant HealthOfficer is responsible for the
SolidWaste Management in the city. For the efficient administration
and for day-to-day operational purposes,the town is divided into 4
Zones covering all the 100 Municipal Wards.
3. In Madurai City garbage is generatedat the rate of 406 gram per day
per head accumulating to a massivequantum of 548 Metric Tonper
day. This is slightly higher when comparing similar level of cities
where the per capital generationof waste is around 400 grams per
day and the reasonfor the excess rate of creationof waste is due to
the heavy influx of floating population which is estimatedto be
around 3 lakhs. Out the accumulatedgarbage releasedby the houses,
shops, daily and weekly markets,commercial establishments,hotels,
hospitals and industries,garbage generated from the house account of
64%. Householdwastes contains mainly residual vegetables and food
which couldbe easily disposed.But the scientific disposal of solid
waste such as plastic,paper dischargedby the commercial
establishments,without affecting the environment remains to be a
great challenge.
The various sources ofwaste generation in Madurai are detailed

Domestic Waste:
In Madurai the major source ofwaste generationhas been
households.The quantum of waste generatedfrom households is
around 288 tones per day, which is 64 percentage of the total waste
generationof the town. The householdwaste mainly consists of
organic waste such as Vegetable Waste,Food etc., whichcan be easily
disposed.
Commercial Waste:
Commercial establishments like Hotels, Restaurants,Shops,Trading
Units, Small time Street Traders,Marriage halls etc., generates solid
waste which mainly comprises ofpaper, plastics,foodleft-overs and
others in organics.Madurai has approximately 25 Daily Markets and 2
Weekly Markets.The total quantum of waste generated from these
sources is 108.00 tones per day, which constitutes about 24
percentage of the total waste generated. Waste Collectioninthe
Market areas and the bus stand are managed by means of contract
employees.
Industrial Waste:
5. As there is no major Industries inthe Corporationarea,the waste
from the existing units is not mixed with the municipal waste.
Hospital and Clinical Waste:
The Urban local body is maintaining a few health post and maternity
homes.In addition, the town being a district Headquarters has many
institutionof health. Hospital waste constitutes approximately 18.00
tones. Hazardous waste are collectedand disposedseparately
throughincineration and is not mixedwith municipal waste.
Waste from other sources:
The Municipal also collects waste generatedfrom streets sweeping,
drain desilting and construction.The quantity of solidwaste
generatedfrom the above sources is of the order of 36 tones per day,
which is about 8% ofthe total waste generation.
CompositionofWaste:
In 2004, a study of the waste characterizationofsolidwaste has been
conducted by Madurai CorporationApproximately 65.40% waste is
degradable, while the rest is Non-degradable (which mainly include
paper, plastic Gloss etc.,) the details are present below.
The primary collectionofwaste in Madurai Town is done by SHGin 7
wards and bus stands and throughprivatization2 wards and by
Corporation63wards.
2 Mission and vision overview
Madurai Corporation -Swachh Bharat Mission
6. Madurai Corporation has embarked on a journey to transform the city in to the cleanest city
in the country by 2017. In order to achieve this feat, it is important to eliminate open
defecation and promote healthy sanitation practices. According to 2011 census, Madurai has
around 20000 households without an attached toilet. To promote construction of toilets in
such house holds the Government of India and Government of Tamil Nadu are providing
grants for construction of IHHLs. However, this amount is not sufficient to construct a proper
sanitary toilet.
The Construction cost for a sanitary toilet varies from Rs 22000 to 26000 depending on the
sewerage treatment system. While the Government contribution is around Rs 8000, the rest
has to be borne by the beneficiary. Since most of these beneficiaries are very poor they are
not able to bear the balance contribution amount. Many beneficiaries are not willing to
construct toilets due to this reason and therefore the practice of open defecation still
continues.
The Swachh Bharat Mission encourages Private Sector participation in Capex (Capital
Expenditure) and Opex (Operation and Maintenance). Many PSUs and private companies are
funding toilet construction under their CSR activities. In Madurai for the current financial
year we have a target of 4382 IHHLs. To meet this ambitious target, we need financial support
from donors.

The Madurai Corporation is collecting solid waste by employing 2700 Sanitary Workers in
clearing the garbage using hand carts and Tricycles, who collections waste from Dustbins and
Dumper Bins.
Effects in privatization of collection have been made through employing of contract workers and
collection of waste from bus stand and other commercial areas. Privatization of Household waste
collection is under active consideration by the Corporation. Presently the corporation has also
engaged 70 contractual labourers for waste collection from markets and bus stand. The
Corporation has also appointed 12 SHG's with a total of appropriates 240 workers. The
Corporation has also engaged 200 Contract Workers for Garbage Loading on the transportation
vehicles.
The Corporation manages primary collection through 135 Tricycles (carrying capacity – 20
kg/Tricycle) and 150 Hand Carts (carrying capacity – 100 kg/hand cart). Collection and transfer of
waste to collection points is also managed by Auto minder (57 rented vehicles are being used).
There are 74 Dumper Bins with a total carrying capacity of approximately 100 tones placed at
main collection locations around the city. Night sweeping is done effectively around the temple
areas, the core city areas, some markets and around bus stands.
In Madurai Corporation waste transportation is being carried out using open vehicles. Transfer of
garbage to collection points is done by corporation owned hand carts, Tricycles and rented
Vehicles like Auto minders, which is further taken to dumping yard by means of corporation own
vehicles (Lorries and Dumper Placers) and rented vehicles (Tractors).
Transportation of waste is managed by 12 Corporation own vehicles and 65 hired vehicles. The
Corporation is collecting and transporting 410 MT of waste to the Dump site based on varying
number of trips assigned and undertaken by these vehicles. The details of waste transportation
vehicles are detailed below:
11. Disposal:
At present, the corporationis not practicing any safe or scientific solid
waste disposal methods.The waste collectedfrom various localities in
the city is directly disposedoff by open dumping at Vellakkal site,
locatedoutside the city limit.SolidWaste generatedfrom all sanitary
wards is disposal off at this site. Site is locatedat about 10 Km from
the city and the total area of the site is 82 Acres.

5 Recommendations:
The municipalities have to work more effectively by increasing the capacity of waste
treated &collected
on daily basis by strengthening the partnerships with PPP projects
The Private waste management companies should be given tax evasions and
relaxations on loans on investments made for business operations to increase the
entrepreneurial initiatives.
Working with the informal sector would increase the efficiency and coverage of the
waste management process across the initiatives.
21. Reducing the amount of garbage tipped in the landfills should be regulated by
checking that the waste has been strictly passedthrough segregation and treatment
process to reduce the carbon foot print and pollution of the environment.
As the society is susceptible to throw the garbage anywhere unthinkably many public
dustbins should be placed at 10 mtrs distance, educating the citizens about the civic
sense and hygiene is important. Most importantly public areas like vegetable and meat
markets.
