I.E.I NEWS

The municipal solid waste management is taking a serious turn now-a-days. It is not about nding the appropriate technology for disposal ofwaste but how to integrate the available technologies with the primarysegregation at the house-hold level. We all know that domestic garbage in

municipal areas may be broadly classied in three categories: (a) Organicwaste: kitchen waste, vegetables, owers, leaves, fruits, (b) Toxic waste:old medicines, paints, chemicals, bulbs, spray cans, fertilizer and pesticidecontainers, batteries, (c) Recyclable waste: paper, glass, metals, plastics.It is clear that there will be no value from waste, as energy or material, if itis not segregated. But this is where our waste management system stopsshort.

Amendment of Bye-Laws and Regulations of the Council

From the

Presidents

Desk...

The Extraordinary General Meeting and Special General Meeting of the

Corporate Members of The Institution of Engineers (India) was held on

15 May 2016 at the premises of The Institution of Engineers (India),

Himachal Pradesh State Centre, Victoria Place, Nigam Vihar, Shimla

171002. The meeting presided over by Mr H C S Berry, President, IEI,

and Dr Anil Kumar, Secretary and Director General-I/C and attended

by a large number of Corporate Members, considered the resolution

of the Council regarding amendment to Bye-Laws and Regulations of

the Council and approved the amendments unanimously to become

operational with immediate effect. The occasion was also used to

interact with the members present to inform regarding various activities

of the Institution.

Currently, contracts for waste management are awarded by Urban LocalBodies (ULBs) to vendors with an incentive to bring larger quantities ofwaste to the dumpsite. Under these contracts, the vendor is paid againstthe volume of waste deposited on the site. This tipping fee as it is knownmeans that the higher the volume brought the greater the nancial reward.City municipalities also nd that the collection, transport and dumping ofwaste is an easier proposition than processing it for reuse.

The Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) Rules 2015 has been introduced andnow it is the responsibility of ULB to ensure segregation of waste at source.This interprets that the ULBs must sensitise the citizens to segregatewaste at the household level and then ensure that this segregated

waste - wet and dry, compostable and recyclable is collected separatelyand transported separately for processing. Our lack of knowledge hasresulted in many recyclable items being thrown out on a daily basis. This

has negative impact on the environment and the health of the humanpopulation. Landlls continue to be lled up with all kinds of waste that aretaking up valuable space. Segregation at source should therefore be at theheart of ULBs solid waste management system.

India Emerging as a Manufacturing

Hub of the World by 2020 Prospects

and PathwaysKarnataka State Centre of the Institution organized the Thirty-rst NationalConvention of Production Engineers and National Seminar on the themeIndia Emerging as a Manufacturing Hub of the World by 2020 - Prospectsand Pathways during May 6-7, 2016 at Bangalore. The Convention wasinaugurated by the Chief Guest, Dr L V Muralikrishna Reddy, ImmediatePast President, IEI. In his inaugural address, Dr Reddy spoke aboutsignicance of Indian manufacturing sector and its objective in the globalperspective to achieve growth. He emphasized on Make in India missionand stated that it is one of the most signicant drive to enhance thequality of manufacturing system. He felt that it is necessary for todaysmanufacturers to adopt state-of-the-art production reporting tools, supply

Garbology is the study of modern refuse and trash, which includescommunal sorting, separating and disposal of landll, recycling andcompostable items. This subject has the potential to teach us moresustainable methods when it comes to manage our waste. Following are

the principles of Garbology: (1) Do not mix the waste, (2) Total segregation- no segregation - no collection, (3) Compost biodegradable, (4) Recyclenon-biodegradable, (5) Set up physical programs for composting andrecycling in every locality, (6) Only two destinations - Back to Mother Earthand Back to Recycling Plant, (7) Decentralisation of waste management

to tackle it at local level, (8) Take action against those who defy the laws.Though till recent times, the subject Garbology is nurtured in Westerncountries, it is also gaining relevance in Indian context. It is not only about

sensitisation of people but lot of technological processes are also involvedin the system. Various technologies are available for composting, suchas, aerobic, anaerobic and vermi-composting. The thermal conversiontechnologies are incineration with or without heat recovery, pyrolysis andgasication, plasma pyrolysis and pelletization or production of RefuseDerived Fuel (RDF).

Therefore, the Indian Universities and Technological Institutes shouldseriously consider introduction of Garbology in their curriculum, so that,we can effectively tackle the menacing situation and turn the table towardsbenet of people. We need to turn the system of garbage managementat source, only then we really clean our cities - not just sweep the dirtunder the carpet. The Institution of Engineers (India) being the largest

organisation of engineers and technologists should also consider thesubject very seriously as a part of its sustainable effort of developing andproviding technologies for sustainable development.
