Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], March 29: Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) recently announced a significant leap towards sustainable waste management with the initiation of a tender process. The tender invited proposals for the Design, Build, Erection, Commissioning, Operation and Maintenance of a state-of-the-art 300 Tons Per Day (TPD) Capacity Municipal Solid Waste to Steam Plant under the PPP model. This move underscores AMC’s commitment to addressing the challenges of Solid Waste Management (SWM) in Ahmedabad City.
Commenting on this initiative, a spokesperson from Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation stated, “The decision to steer 300 Tons Per Day (TPD) of municipal solid waste to a steam plant under the PPP model reflects our dedication to sustainable practices and innovative solutions in waste management.”
Ahmedabad, being the 7th Largest Metropolis in India with a population exceeding 63 lakhs, generates approximately 4000 Metric Tons of solid waste daily. The shift towards sustainable waste management is imperative as the decomposition of organic waste in landfills emits harmful greenhouse gases, contributing to climate change, and toxic substances from various waste types pose health risks to communities.
