Mechanical biological waste treatment plant for Bangalore west zone

Proper solid waste management is a problem in many developing countries, especially in their big cities. Wasteconsult International was developing a solution for the municipal waste processing for the West Zone district of the Indian mega-city Bangalore. For that purpose, studies regarding the quality and quantity of the waste had to be made first in order to decide which processing concept is the most favourable. Incineration and Mechanical-Biological treatment was taken into consideration. According to the attributions of the waste, MBT process with a convertible bio-drying and composting process was chosen and designed.

A detailed waste characterization study was conducted for the west zone of Bangalore by The Forward Foundation (TFF), in collaboration with Electronic City Industrial Township Authority (ELCITA), Bangalore under the guidance of Institute for Sanitary Engineering and Waste Management (ISAH), Leibniz Universität Hannover, Germany. Based on the results from this study, Wasteconsult International, Germany has been engaged to develop an appropriate waste treatment solution for the study area. As a guideline the following project targets were defined:

The aim is to develop a reliable and successful waste processing facility
Appropriate sanitation for the studied area
Minimizing the amount of waste to be landfilled
The concept must have a high level of health and safety standards to minimizedirect contact of the workers with dirty and unsegregated waste
A balance between high level of automation in the treatment process and Maximum possible labour intensity

Die innerstaatliche Umsetzung des Pariser Klimaschutzübereinkommens - ein Rechtsvergleich
© Lexxion Verlagsgesellschaft mbH (8/2024)
Like all public international law treaties, the Paris Climate Accords rely on national law for their implementation. The success of the agreement therefore depends, to a large extent, on the stepstaken or not taken by national governments and legislators as well as on the instruments and mechanisms chosen for this task. Against this background, the present article compares different approaches to the implementation of the Paris Agreement, using court decisions as a means to assess their (legal) effectiveness.
