The Raipur Kalan Municipal Corporation is preparing for its 361st general house meeting on April 30, where significant proposals for waste management will be discussed. A key focus will be on a ₹146.58 lakh project to construct a shed and install an electric sanitary waste incinerator at the animal carcass plant. This facility aims to enhance the scientific disposal of sanitary waste, which is currently outsourced, leading to high recurring costs. The proposed 200 kg per hour incinerator is expected to facilitate compliant, on-site disposal of approximately 500 kg of waste daily, thereby reducing reliance on private vendors and operational expenses. Additionally, the meeting will address the establishment of a 60 tonnes per day horticulture waste processing plant through a public-private partnership. This facility will convert substantial horticulture waste into compost and other by-products, alleviating landfill pressure. The contractor will manage the project without capital costs to the corporation, paying a royalty of ₹9.25 per metric tonne processed, with a potential contract extension based on performance.
