The total waste generated by any country is calculated on the basis of per capita waste generation. As per the latest estimate by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate change, we generate more than one lakh of waste in India per day considering 0.3 kg per capita per day for small cities and 0.5 kg per capita per day for large cites.

As per the latest Swachh Bharat Mision Dashboard for Urban (http://swachhbharaturban.gov.in/dashboard/), more than 1.32 lakh of waste is generated under solid waste management calculation. These numbers are staggering and hence there is a lot of scope for waste management in India.

Case study: Pirana dumpsite, Ahmedabad

Ahmedabad Pirana landfill site is one of biggest dumpsites in India. Locally known as ‘kachre ka dhakla’ (hill of garbage), it’s a massive mound of garbage spread over 84 hectares (207.569 acres) of land and reaching a height of over 200 m. It has been the city’s sole repository of garbage since the 1980s. Legacy waste accumulated at this site is around 1.24 crore MTs. It had 40 trommels installed and it is running in one shift. Total combined output of the trommels is 4,000-4,500 MTs per day.

Last year from November 5, KLEEMANN machines were deployed at this landfill site. Kleemann mobile screens have increased the processing capacity from the existing 4,000 MTs per day to 10,000 MTs per day, and since then, these five KLEEMANN screens have helped to process 1.35 million MTs in just nine months while running in single shift.

Commenting on the performance of these machines, Neelraj N. Varsani, Owner, Neel Steel, said, “We have been using four MS 952 EVO mobile screens for biomining application since February 2021 at Pirana dumpsite, Ahmedabad. These mobile screens have been exceptional in performance & productivity. By August 2021, we were able to clear 720,000 MTs of waste with the help of these four screens at an average of 1,000 TPD per screen. These machines have passed the test of time and conditions with flying colours and are worth of every money invested as they helped us achieve our target well within the stipulated time. We are very pleased with the exemplary service provided by the customer support team. We are very honoured with our association with the Wirtgen Group.”
