As per the 12TH Schedule of the 74th Constitutional Amendment Act, 1992, solid waste management is
one of the basic essential services provided by municipal authorities in the country to keep urban areas
clean. However, it is amongst the most poorly rendered services where the systems applied are
unscientific, outdated and inefficient; population coverage is low and the poor are marginalized. It is
estimated that the amount of solid waste generated per capita in India is 100 gms (in small towns) and
500 gms (in urban clusters). Globalization and the increase in purchasing power have further
compounded the issue.

Jaipur is located on 26° 55’ north latitude and 75° 49’ east longitude. It’s municipal boundary extends
from 26 degree 46 minutes north latitude to 27 degree 01 minutes north latitude and 75 degree 37
minutes east longitude to 76 degree 57 minutes .east longitude. The city is surrounded by Aravalli hills.
The Jaipur is located in the semi-Arid Zone of India, with a population of 30.46L

SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT IN JAIPUR

In order to ensure de-centralized functioning, JMC plans to have ward offices in all 91 wards. Each ward
office will have a computer with grievance redressal software. Each ward office will be constructed at an
estimated cost of Rs. 3.50 lac. Construction of such ward offices has been completed till now.

In India, the makeup of waste is roughly 50% biodegradable, 25% inerts (construction and demolition
waste), 9% plastic, 8% paper, 4% Rags, and 1% glass. The composition of waste varies from season to
season. In the summer there is more biodegradable waste because of more vegetation.7 The amount of
plastic in waste has supposedly been decreasing due to the recent ban on plastic carrying bags in
Rajasthan beginning August 2010.

Jaipur’s daily production of solid waste is around 1100 MT/day. Of that amount, 200-250 MT remain on
the streets, meaning lifting efficiency is around 80%. The per capita solid waste production per day is
350 g, which with an average family size of five - 1.75 kg/day.

By successfully implementing solid waste management, Jaipur would progress towards ‘zero waste’ city.
The management process implies segregation of waste at source, increased recyclability, operational
discipline through monitoring, and enhancing the service standards. This would be achieved by involving
citizens in the monitoring process and empowering them to do so by digital solutions. The overall idea to
implement solid waste management is improving Jaipur’s image by making public spaces clean and
hygienic.

To convert waste to energy this project has been taken up by Jaipur Smart City Limited in convergence
with Jaipur Municipal Corporation with sanitary landfill at Langriyawas. This project is being
implemented under Swachh Bharat Mission. The bidding, as well as negotiation process for this project,
has been completed and letter of acceptance has already been issued to the shortlisted firm.
As power would be generated from waste, talks are on with the Rajasthan Electricity Regulatory
Authority for finalizing the rates which would be done shortly. Jaipur Municipal Corporation is all geared
up to start this project at the earliest. The estimated cost of the project is Rs.182 Cr.

Pink City that vouches for becoming a smart city lacks proper management of solid waste disposal. Even
though door-to-door garbage collection is successfully launched, residents complain of littered garbage
in their neighbourhood.

Though, Jaipur city name was not there in poor solid waste management, but it might soon make it to
the list as of 1,800 metric tonne municipal solid waste (MSW) only 25% is processed.

City’s population is approximately 37 lakh. As per municipal solid waste (management and handling)
Rules 2016, one person produces 430 grams wastes. However, city at present treats less than 600 metric
tonne waste and converts it to compost, and the remaining to refuse only derived fuel (RDF). Waste-to-
energy plant at Langdiyawas which would treat 700 metric tonnes of garbage to energy continues to
remain on papers.

SORTING

Objectives of sorting

(a) To separately store recyclable material for reuse.

(b) To ensure that waste which can be processed for recovery of material and energy (through
composting, incineration or any other suitable technology) does not become co-mixed with
undesirable elements.

(c) To separately store hazardous material for disposal in hazardous waste landfills or appropriate
processing.

(d) To minimize the waste and ensure reduction in landfill space for final disposal

Methods for Sorting and segregation at household level:

• Keep separate containers for dry and wet waste in the kitchen

• Keep two bags for dry waste collection- paper and plastic , for the rest of the household waste
 • Keep plastic from the kitchen clean and dry and drop into the dry waste bin. Keep glass/ plastic
containers rinsed of food matter.

• Send wet waste out of the home daily. Store and send dry waste out of the home , once a week.

• Keep a paper bag for throwing the sanitary waste.

• In order to ensure that hazardous waste is not dumped into municipal bins, maximum door to
door collection from households and establishments must be emphasized.

STAGES OF SORTING

 At the source / household level

 At the community bin (municipal bin)
 At a transfer station or centralized sorting facility
 At waste processing site (pre-sorting and post-sorting)
 At the landfill site

SORTED WASTE STREAMS

 Dry Recyclables
 Construction and demolition waste
 Biodegradable waste
 Bulky waste (white goods)
 Hazardous waste
 Mixed MSW (often referred to as comingled waste)

Segregation

Waste types

E-waste: Printer and printer cartridges, electronic parts and equipment and others.

Hazardous wastes: Chemicals and solvents and their empty containers, paints, oils, lubricants, glues,
thinners and their empty containers, insecticides, pesticides, pesticides and herbicides and their empty
containers, photographic chemicals, bleaches and household kitchen and drain cleaning agents.

Household medical waste: thermometers and others mercury containing products, discarded medicines,
injection needles and syringes after destroying them both, sanitary wastes and diapers (should be
collected daily)
