1.2 Waste Generation: Present scenario
1.2.1 Solid waste
(a). Domestic Solid Waste
Unlike urban life style, domestic kitchen waste generated in villages is immediately used
as food for cattle. Rural people have mentality of reducing waste as far as possible.
Therefore, amount of kitchen waste is not huge like urban area. In addition, people hereare economically poor. Therefore, amount of domestic solid waste is comparatively little.
Other metallic/plastic/paper waste is segregated at source only and sold out to recyclers.
Generation of Solid waste in rural areas ranges between 50 gm/capita/day and 250
gm/capita/day as mentioned below:
Rural (Peri- urban or Urban Outgrowth) :150 to 250 gm/cap/day
Rural (Remote/Tribal) : 50 to 150 gm/cap/day

(b) Livestock WasteThe village possesses a good number of cattle. According to Panchayat data, village has
360 numbers of cows. Taking 10 kg/animal/day dung amount as safe value, 2600kg/day
dung waste is generated.
(c) Agricultural wasteAgro-wastes are mainly generated at the time of harvesting and include agricultural
residues left in the field after harvesting/thrashing and the main stalk that is harvested
with the crop. The main crops of the village are Coconut, vegetable, corn, dhal and
sugarcane
(d) Bio medical waste
One primary health care centre and one maternity and child care centre are situated inside
the village. Waste generation from these centres is very low.
1.2.2 Domestic Liquid Waste:Almost all population is facilitated with regular water supply through tube wells. It is
estimated that about 75% to 80% water supplied through piped water supply scheme,
comes out as grey water. The village has piped network for water supply and has 100%
drainage facility.
1.2Current Waste Management Practices1.3.1 Solid Waste:
(a)Domestic Solid waste management: As such, no method exists for solid wastemanagement in the village. People dispose the waste on any open land. A common
place to dump the waste has automatically come in to existence; people staying
nearby the place use the same for dumping the waste.
(b)Live stock waste: It is generated at almost every household. People generallycollect and send them to nearby agricultural fields for soil conditioning and to use
as fertilizer. Sometimes some external agencies also buy the dung waste for
various purposes.
1.3.2 Liquid Waste:
Disposal of liquid waste is the most neglected aspect in village. Though there is 100%
drainage facility is available, there is no appropriate treatment system is provided. All
liquid wastes from households is discharged on nearby open land.
1.4 SanitationVillage has a fairly good sanitation system. Out of 1880 households, 1400 have sanitation
facility at home.

1.5 Proposed Waste Management Plan
1. Domestic solid waste, which is non biodegradable, shall be brought to materialrecovery centre. After sorting of waste in to several components like plastic,
paper, metal, glass etc., it shall be sold to vendors for recycling.
2. Cattle dung shall be collected meticulously and shall be brought to windrowcomposting units for making organic manure.
3. Agricultural waste shall be converted in to briquettes that can be used asalternative fuel.
4. For wastewater treatment, conventional sewage treatment plant shall be opted.1.6 Process flow for waste management

1.8 Notes
1. Before execution, the pilot system should be adopted on a small scale that includes all
activities.
2. Wastewater treatment plant is expensive, so if the drainage line of the village can be
connected to main sewer line of nearby city, the option should be thought upon.
3. This document is prepared on preliminary data to get estimate and does not show the
exact cost.
