In developing countries, like India, the
populations in prime metros have always been oblivious to
the importance of Bulk transport of Municipal solid until
recently. As India becomes more extensively urbanized, the
standards of solid waste removal and disposal must become
more exacting. The quantity of refuse is enormous, and its
generation, continuous. This fact, combined with the impact
of solid waste on the urban environment, prompted Industrial
Plants & Waste Treatment Corporation (IPWT), a pioneering
Mumbai based environmental technology company, to work on
solid waste management mechanization techniques and equipment,
for improved solid waste collection efficiency Due to the
present awareness levels, the Gujarat Urban Development
Company (GUDC) are now hoping to adopt the more effective
approach using mechanized methods of disposal of solid waste
by SKIPPER. These methods are in line with practices adopted. Gujarat Urban Development Company (GUDC)
has now a systematic Solid Waste Transportation & Disposal
program under their ADB funded project for 14 towns in Gujarat,
which will use state of art IPWT - SKIPPER, Dumper Placer
unit designed to meet the challenges of bulk solid waste
collection, transportation & easier disposal at their
Landfill site. SKIPPER transfers high volumes of garbage
using the relay system, wherein the unit puts in an empty
container in place and takes away the full containers to
the dumping area and empty the garbage by tipping ;mechanism.
By this, obstruction to the traffic and pedestrian movement
is also kept to the desired minimum. “And this is just
a good beginning of better cleanliness standards to come”
adds Rajesh Khatwani, CEO IPWT who has been known for his
entrepreneurial forte, introducing proven environmental
technologies into India over the last decade. The current
procurement of . SKIPPER in high quantities will also impart
high awareness levels of cleanliness to citizens in Indian
towns & cities. |
