New Rules For Waste Management Released By NEERI



India is an agriculturally based country with a present population of 1.311 billion. Being a developing country and due to its rapid industrial growth, the urban population is also increasing. As a result, the Class I and Class II towns have increased tremendously and so has the MSW because of the improved life style and social status of the populations in the urban centers.  This has resulted in the increase of the annual waste generation and the issue of its disposal. The National Environmental Engineering Research Institute (NEERI) has been carrying out studies for a long time in almost 50 cities of the country and then has released a paper with the characterization of the waste, how they can be converted, if they can, and if not then the ways to reduce the burden on the landfills.

Nirmal Singh 3C Company talks about the deficiencies listed by NEERI in the storage and collection of MSW, they are as follows:
•    Faults in the sweeping and the collection designs
•    Improper check on the emptying of the dustbins
•    Chocking of the drains due to the waste scatters
•    Lesser bins in comparison to the waste
•    Bad conditions of the RCC bins
•    No bins for the litter
Proper implementation of the guidelines passed by the environment ministry is very important. With the rapid urbanization, many people have already made cities their home and in no time would 50% of the countries population also move to the cities, which means the waste produced every year will also start increasing by 5%, Tier 1 accumulating to 80% of the waste. Even after so many laws being passed, the only reason why waste management is still a challenge in the country is its improper implementation. 

To tackle this problem, the ministry will launch a nationwide initiative targeting the personnel involved in the waste management, covering almost 68 cities by the end of the year.

Nirmal Singh 3C Company says that last year also, the government passed a list of rules for the waste management in which six sets of waste management were mentioned dealing with the sex kinds of waste; solid waste, plastic, biomedical, construction and demolition, electronic waste and hazardous waste.

The rules laid by the government were short and clear, good and practical yet the non-implementation of the same had forced them to releasing a new set this year. With the new set they promise to make sure that the rules will not remain just in the books but would be properly implemented.
