EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Development of an Integrated MSW Processing and Disposal Facility at Sagar by Saagar MSW Solutions Pvt. Ltd.

1. Executive Summary

The current Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) management system in Sagar town and ten (10) other surrounding Urban Local Bodies, ULBs (, Banda, , , Grahakota, Bina, Deori, , and Shahpur) currently does not comply with MSW (Management and Handling) Rules, 2000 and subsequent amendments. Government of (GoMP), realizing the necessity of efficient waste management system, wanted to establish an Integrated MSW processing and Disposal Facility on Public Private Partnership (PPP) basis for management of MSW generated in Sagar Town and 10 other surrounding ULBs.

“Saagar MSW Solutions Private Limited (SMSWSPL)” (Project Proponent ) was chosen for establishing an Integrated MSW Processing and Disposal Facility in Sagar town. Currently, Sagar Town along with 10 other ULBs generate an average MSW of 180 TPD. All the 10 participating ULBs are within 75 km radius of Sagar Town. Considering the population projection, the Project Proponent proposes to establish a 350 TPD Integrated MSW Processing and Disposal Facility in Sagar Town with facilities such as Composting/Dry Fermentation (for recovery of organics), Materials Recovery Facility (for recovery of recyclables), Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) facility for recovery of high calorific value waste, Secured Landfill (for disposal of inerts) and Incinerator for leachate treatment/disposal, RDF disposal, and for animal carcass.

The proposed Integrated Waste Management Facility will be established in a land of about 10.50 hectares located within Sagar town. Because this project aims at modernization of existing dumpsite ( which is being used for more than 10 years ), no alternative sites were considered for development of this facility. The proposed site proves to be the best location considering both the environmental and economical factors. Site Features are presented in Table – 1.

Sagar District is abound of Deep and Medium Black Soils. Sagar has a borderline humid subtropical climate and tropical savana climate with hot summers, a somewhat cooler monsoon season and cool winters. Heavy rain falls in the monsoon season in the month of July and August.

Sagar experiences maximum precipitation (64% of the total annual) in the month of July and August with 16.5 mm and 19.7 mm rainy days whereas March and April experience least. Summers lasts from March to June whereas December and January are coldest months.

Based on the waste characteristics, proposed process consists of Dry Fermentation (anaerobic digestion ), Compost Plant ( aerobic digestion ), Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) Facility, and Material Recovery Facility (MRF) etc. The flow chart of the process is shown in figure below.

Development of an Integrated MSW Processing and Disposal Facility at Sagar by Saagar MSW Solutions Pvt. Ltd. Executive Summary

The water requirement for operating the proposed facility is about 10 KLD. It is expected that Sagar Municipal Corporation would supply water to this facility. Otherwise, water requirement would be met through tankers. The energy requirement for operating the proposed facility is about 0.5 MW which will be fulfilled by MPTRANSCO. Sufficient capacity DG Sets (750 KVA) are proposed for power backup.

Adequate measures are proposed to be taken up for leachate management. Since the plant is designed with a closed windrow, and best practices are followed during landfill operation, minimum quantity of leachate will be generated which either will be circulated to landfill, sprayed on landfill for dust control, use to keep the windrows moist. Any excess leachate that accumulates after following the before mentioned steps will be evaporated by excess heat from the bio-gas plant operations with proper air pollution control measures. More details on leachate management presented in the PFR.

It is estimated that it will take up to 15 months for execution of the proposed project (Integrated MSW Processing and Disposal Facility) with all the facilities proposed. Operations will continue for a minimum of about 17.5 years at this facility and will be further extended by another 5 to 10 years. The approximate cost estimate for the proposed facility is about INR 49.5 Crores . About 25 full time employees and 30 contractual employees will be employed for project operation. About 200 indirect employment will be generated for primary/secondary collection, transportation etc.
