BRIEF INTRODUCTION
There are 146 numbers of Urban Local Bodies in the State of
Punjab. As per estimates, these 146 Urban Local Bodies in the State of
Punjab generates Municipal Solid Waste to the tune of 4300 Ton per
day. At present, there are only two Garbage Treatment Plants
functioning in the State of Punjab i.e. one Municipal Solid Waste
treatment plant at Village Waryana, Kapurthala Road, Jalandhar (Caters
to the treatment of Garbage generated from the city of Jalandhar) and
other at village Pandori Mehtama, Sham Churrasi, Distt. Hoshiarpur
(Caters to the treatment of Garbage generated from the towns of Sham
Churassi, Alawalpur, Adampur & Air Force Station, Adampur). The
Government of Punjab has formulated a State Level Municipal Solid
Waste Management program for managing Municipal Solid Waste of all
(146 no.) Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) of Punjab (India) on Public Private
Partnership (PPP) mode for a concession period of 25 years. Under this
State level Municipal Solid Waste management program, a State Level
Municipal Solid Waste Master Plan has been prepared and entire State
of Punjab has been divided into eight Municipal Solid Waste Clusters
viz. i) Jalandhar Cluster, ii) Ludhiana Cluster, iii) Bathinda Cluster, iv)
Ferozepur Cluster v) Patiala Cluster, vi) Amritsar Cluster vii) Pathankot
Cluster and viii) GMADA Cluster.

1. Jalandhar Cluster
2. Ludhiana Cluster
3. Bathinda Cluster
4. Ferozepur Cluster
5. Patiala Cluster
6. Amritsar Cluster
7. Pathankot Cluster
8. GMADA Cluster
The sites for all the 8 clusters have already been finalized
and Punjab Pollution Control Board has granted authorization under rule
4(2) of Municipal Solid Wastes (Management & Handling) Rules, 2000 to
all the respective ULBs for setting up of Integrated Municipal Solid
Waste Management Plant. As per Ministry of Environment & Forests
(MoEF), Govt. of India Notification dated 14.09.2006; all the 8 ULBs
have to obtain Environmental Clearance from the MoEF for setting up
Integrated Municipal Solid Waste Management Plants. This clearance
has been granted to 4 no. cluster sites i.e. at Mohali, Bathinda, Ludhiana
and Jalandhar; however, Environmental Clearance is under process for
the remaining 4 cluster sites.
9
Each Project includes:
(i) Door to door collection of Municipal Solid Waste and
segregation of waste at source.
(ii) Transportation of Municipal Solid Waste to the processing
site in a scientific manner.
(iii) Segregation of Municipal Solid Waste mechanically at the
processing site.
(iv) Processing of Municipal Solid Waste: Following
Processing technologies would be used in various clusters/
projects,
a. Composting: Composting process is quite commonly used
in MSW management in India and results in production of a
stable bio-fertlizer product known as Bio-Compost. This bio-
compost, depending upon its quality can be used as a useful
manure and soil conditioner element. This technology has
been incorporated in all the eight clusters as per the
proportionate quantity of waste suited for the purpose after
segregation.
b. Waste to Energy: It is the process of direct burning of
wastes in the presence of excess air (oxygen) at
temperatures of about 800 Degree Celsius and above,
10
liberating heat energy, inert gases and ash. This technology
has been incorporated in the Jalandhar cluster along with
combination of other technologies as per the proportionate
quantity of waste suited for that purpose after segregation or
without segregation as the case may be.
c. Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF): In RDF plant, waste is
processed before burning. Typically, the noncombustible
items are removed, separating glass and metals for
recycling. The combustible waste is shredded into a smaller,
more uniform particle size for burning. It involves the process
of conversion of garbage into fuel pellets involves primarily
drying, separation of combustibles from garbage, size
reduction and pelletisation after mixing with binder and/or
additives as required. This technology has been incorporated
in almost all the clusters along with combination of other
technologies as per the proportionate quantity of waste
suited for that purpose after segregation or without
segregation as the case may be.
d. Disposal through Common Engineered Landfill Sites
(SLF) -The final inert material will be disposed in the
Common Sanitary Engineered Landfill Facility.
