City waste is again news this morning. It is the turn of Alappuzha now. Here also composting is the technology and objection is from the neighbors.
Composting, aerobic type is much like road side thro of house hold waste, which is different from the hotel waste only by volume.
Unless we upgrade the technology of disposal from the Archaic composting to higher technology, the problem will not disappear. However, before the adoption of new technology and archaic method, we spend another decade or more.
For e.g., Trivandrum had aerobic composting near Manacaud and Chacko from where farmers used to buy compost. Our people in the lowest strata happily took the dripping waste in fatten baskets from the dump yard to the corp truck and to garden land, where it is used as green manure.
After a while the local people obstructed such dumpings
As it attracted vermins.
Finally there were no takers.
Then came vilappil sala another dumping yard and processing yard where again the composting was the technology.
There also due to obstruction by
Neighbors, the plant was shut down.
This episode of vilappil sala gave correctly the incorrect message to the rest of the state.
Now the table is ready to go for an upgraded technology. The only available second gen tech is the newest one of incineration.
But it may take a while for the technocrats to accept this technology application.
But there is no hybrid solution anyway.
