Development of organic waste to Bio CNG plant on public private partnership- under development

Coimbatore City Municipal Corporation (CCMC) has adopted Micro-composting (MCCs) and zero waste as a strategy for managing municipal solid waste has accordingly constructed 6 MCCs based the operational viability of which such an approach would be adopted for operating and maintaining MCCs across all wards in the City. It is estimated that each MCC will handle 5 TPD of wet waste. Almost all the wet waste is collected and transported in an informal manner. It is proposed to collect such waste using e-MCVs. Waste characterization has shown that the waste could be used to generate compost which sells in local market. It can also be used to generate RDF pellets which can be used as fuel for generating heat for various purposes.
