Plastic Elimination Project
Project Report
1. Introduction
1.A. Plastic is
non-degradable. So when it is thrown
away, it creates havoc that is potentially eternal. Polybags, disposable plastic tubmblers and
several such items that thrown away recklessly pose formidable threat to all
locations such as mountains, plains, water etc. in several ways. Sometimes they create backflow in
sewage. Plastic bags are found to be
causing immeasurable harm to marine life.
Streams and rivers too are affected.
In mountainous areas the scourge intensifies. As an omnipresent danger,
the waste plastic is to be eliminated.
Unfortunately
there is no safe way to eliminate this threat. Recycling is unlikely for two
reasons. Firstly at about six microns of thickness it takes upwards 250 bags to
make one kilo of plastic which at best fetches only one rupee. Secondly, plastic
cannot be continuously recycled since most carry bags are made of recycled
materials and their future use to the reprocessing industry is limited.
Incinerating and burning for other purposes result in air pollution and toxic
ash.
The
short - cut way found out by authorities has been to ban use of plastic as far
as possible. Further, some Non Government Organizations have tried to urge the
public to limit the use of plastic with little effect. In some cases,
Governments have come forward to check the use of plastic through legislature. This adversely affect
livelihood of certain people.
Inspite
of all these efforts, the crucial situation remains unaffected because of non
availability of a suitable alternative. No cheap and convenient substitute for
plastic has so far been evolved. Without presenting a suitable substitute, it
is not legitimate to ban such a useful item.
Regarding
waste management, including disposal, in several cases, it is done without any
earning. Land filling is one example. But in the present case, the project is
planned to be run in good profit to the implementing agency. The project is
suggested to implement in each and every district. In a district, there may be
several self governing local bodies who may be in bad need of waste management
solutions. They all can be benefited with one centralised project.
1. b The disposal of Municipal Solid Waste
(MSW) is a universal problem. In India India
The
quantity of MSW generated depends upon a number of factors such as food habits,
standard of living, degree of commercial and industrial activity. Besides, the quantity of urban solid waste
generation varies seasonally also. For
the city of Delhi Delhi

gradable
1.C. Processing Systems :
Here the
project envisaged is to consume the waste plastic in the form of filler mixed
with cement, and glue if necessary, to create a paste form to be filled in the
cavities of concrete hollow blocks and other construction blocks during its
automatic manufacturing process. The waste plastic - cement paste can be put
inside the blocks during the manufacturing of pavement blocks, sewage duct wall
blocks etc. The waste plastic is proposed to be cut into minute pieces in an
automatic cutting machine. Then it will be mixed with cement, stickers &
water in a chamber to form a paste form. Simultaneously, the hollow blocks or
other blocks will be manufactured fully automatically and the paste so
manufactured will be filled in the vacant cavities & inner parts of other
blocks & will be sealed with concrete so as to make no contact with outer
world anytime in future. The entire process is fully automatic so as to
minimise the number of labour into twenty or so as per the size of the plant.
. 1.D. It is proposed to be implemented at
least in all 14 Districts in the State and
then in important metros in India
1.E. Solid Waste Management
Till now, there has not been
any answer to the problem of disposal of MSW in an environment-friendly manner.
The Romelt technology, developed by Moscow Institute for Steel and Alloys
(MISA), though primarily developed for extraction of iron from any iron bearing
material/wastes, has now been made suited to cover MSW as well. There is now an answer to the vexing problem
of MSW treatment. However, the management of mSW does not come in purview of
the present project.
The existing methods
adopted for waste management are as following:
1.F. 1. Land Filling
Generally, MSW is disposed
off by dumping in low-lying grounds as a land fill. This is the cheapest and the easiest form of
disposal, nevertheless, it requires huge area of low lying, preferably fallow
lands, around the city which is increasingly becoming scarce, particularly for
a small state like Delhi. Besides, this
method leads to various types of communicable diseases and ground water
contamination in the vicinity of the dumping area.
1.F.
2. Composting
The method segregating biodegradable wastes and
using them for biodegradation to produce Composite, which can be used as
manure. This is a viable method, but has
not achieved the desired results so far.
The compost plants in Delhi
1.F.
3. Fuel pelletization / Reuse derived Fuel (RDF)
Another tried technology is
to manufacture Reuse Derived Fuel (RDF) from the combustible component of MSW
by Pyrolysis, which can be used as domestic fuel and used in the industrial
ovens, etc. this method also has its
problem of selling the product in the cities, where these can be produced.
1.F.
4. Incineration
Low temperature incineration
produces toxic gases and the ashes thus produced, need environment friendly
disposal. Moreover, the bio-degradable
fraction of MSW cannot be easily incinerated because of low calorific value and
high moisture content, without support of external fuel.
In
choosing the method for solid water disposal, the following factors may be
taken into consideration.
u The solid waste disposal method should lead to
sustainable development of the urban areas and not choke these to slow death.
u Making the best possible use of natural resources,
either by recovering energy or by-products.
u avoiding secondary pollution, which may generate more
hazard than they by the original waste.
u obtaining the best balance between substantiality,
economy and efficiency.

G. Promoters : The promoter
of the project is a Consultancy Organisation
located in Chengannur,named
INCOMS, Opposite of R. D. O office, Alappuzha Dist, Kerala , India
1.H. The
products: The products
proposed to be manufactured in the unit are given below. Basically this project
is proposed to set up with a view to eliminate the dangers of waste plastic and
municipal solid waste. As such, all ways will be exploited to use the waste
plastic and MSW in harmless way. At present the following items are proposed to
manufacture using waste plastic & MSW.
I.H. 1. Blocks filled with waste
plastic paste: This may be called waste plastic filled cavity-less
blocks. The cavity will be filled with plastic concrete paste so that no cavity
will be left there. The present day cavity blocks are not safe for construction
because the empty place in side the blocks will develop air pressure and will
cause breakage to the walls. More over, if not plastered well it will give
place to survive harmful insects etc. They also do not present a beautiful
finishing touch. However, the proposed blocks do not present any type of
problem. They are well finished and without air cavity. The cost of the same
will be lower than the ordinary type too.
1. H. 2. Pavement blocks: Pavement
blocks can be manufactured by concealing the cement paste inside it. These
blocks will be strengthy and cost effective.
1. H. 3. Sewage duct wall blocks: The Self
Governing Local Bodies require large quantity of sewage duct walls. At present
they built them at site or use readymade blocks. If these are replaced by
plastic waste concealed wall blocks, cost can be minimized and the greatest
danger of waste plastic can be eliminated too.
1. I. Technology
:
1. I. 1. Waste Plastic Consumption : The process
introduced is a very new one with a Provisional patent to the proposer. The
technology involved in the process is briefed as following:-
The
collected waste plastic is arranged without any dirt and subjected to cutting
into very minute pieces in an automatic cutting machine. The small cut pieces are mixed with cement
and stickers for making a paste form.
While this is formed and passed to the block making machine, concrete
blocks will be ready on the block making machine to receive this past which is
pushed in to the cavity formed in the block making machine itself. At this point, the paste in the cavity, it is
passed forward to seal the plastic paste with ordinary concrete. This makes the paste not to come in touch
with outer world. Then it is allowed to
get set and passes to curing tank. When
it is cured, it can be passed for selling.
(The designs and specifications are kept confidential and are available
for examination only after entering into an agreement.)
It
is purely a mechanical process which an experienced engineer can perform
effectively. Arrangements are made with a Bangalore
Consumption of MSW (As published in the CDE Journal)
The
process takes place as follow: The furnace lining is dried and preheated. Then a slag bath is formed in the furnace by
charging and melting granulated blast furnace slag from steel plants. After the
slag bath temperature is brought up to the working level of 1350-15000C, the
furnace charging with wastes starts. The
furnace temperature should be 50-1000C above the slag liquidous temperature for the
slag to be tapped from the furnace.
The
wastes are discharged from the bunkers by proportioning devices onto the
collecting conveyors, then these get into the furnace through a hole in the
furnace dome and get into the slag bath in the furnace.
The
slag bath is blown through the side tuyeres by a blast which is a mixture of
oxygen and air. In doing so, the slag
bath divided into an upper bubbled zone and a lower under tuyere zone of slowly
mixed slag. After getting into the
bubbled zone, the wastes are mixed into the melt and distributed along the slag
bath volume by streams of slag.
The
mineral portion of the wastes gets dissolved in the slag melt. To correct the slag chemical analysis and to
ensure its fluidity at the furnace operating temperatures, flux is added
depending on the composition of the mineral content of the waters. Lime, lime stone, convertor (LD) slag etc.
are common fluxes which are used.
Carbon
remaining in the wastes after the exit of the volatile components is oxidized
by the blast oxygen through the blowing tuyeres. The carbon is usually oxidised
to carbon monoxide and partly to carbon dioxide. The carbon monoxide as bubbled
through the slag reduces the iron oxides present in the waste (scale etc.) to
liquid iron along with the iron scrap available in the waste and settles at the
reactor bottom after carbonization.
Additional
fuel may be required to support the system if the carbon content in the waste
is not sufficient. Natural gas supplies
along with the blast to the blowing tuyeres can be used as an additional fuel.
Other carbon rich wastes like spent automobile tiers, Coal rejects or coal, oil
refining wastes, wood processing wastes can be also used,.
Combustible
gases generated during exit of the volatile components, partial burning of
waste carbon and additional fuel in the slag melt volume are subject to post
combustion above the melt Surface by oxygen supplied to the second tuyere
system. The post combustion heat generated between slag bath, furnace water
cooled elements and fuel gases. 50-70% of the post combustion heat generated to
the slag bath.
The
post combustion gases are removed from the furnace at the temperature of
1400-1600.c with the help of ID fan via a waste heat boiler and dust cleaning system.
Among
the different metals Present in the
waste, FeV, Ni,Cr and Cu mostly go to metal and some to slag. While, most of
alkali, Zn Cd, Hg,Pb and Sn go to the waste gases. S present in the waste,
mostly is arrested along with the dust in the catchers and thus, the toxicity
of the flux reduces.
Low
dust discharge (less than 1%) is a salient feature of the technology. Since the process uses oxygen or enriched
air. The low volume of waste gases along
with the effect of liquid slag drops ensures low dust generation .Further,
usage of oxygen ensures low Nitrogen oxide in the waste gases after complete
post combustion in the boilers. The level of Nitrogen Oxide is lower than
100mg/nm3 and usually it is 50-70mg/nm3.
The
accumulated slag is tapped in continuous or batch mode. The slag is tapped from the poorly agitated
area under tuyeres. It helps to avoid
contamination of slag by carbon matters present in the wastes. This is because the density of these carbon
matters is lower than the density of slag and these will be kept in the zone of
barbotized slag till their complete incineration.
The
slag is homogeneous, is of low iron content and suitable for the production of
various construction materials like crushed stone, mineral wool, stone casting,
cement etc.
The
Romelt process is the latest in the ‘Waste
to Energy’ systems now gaining popularity in the world and now
encouraged by the Govt. as a means of non-conventional energy source.
This
process can simultaneously process all types of MSW, viz. bio- degradable,
recyclable and inert, along with hospital wastes and non toxic industrial
wastes. However, non-combustible
materials in the MSW may be segregated from the feed to improve thermal
efficiency of the process. No other
process does have the same range of MSW that can be simultaneously treated.
II. Market & Selling Arrangements
A. Market
1. Plastic Reinforced Products : The promoters proposes to sell the
products through Liaisoning & Selling Offices to be established in every
state with district offices connected with manufacturing centres and all the
centres will be connected through internet/intranet so that the entire
activities can be controlled from a central controlling office. In India the construction of Institutional
Buildings, Rural Housing Programme, Urban Development Programs etc. are in
progress. Several million rupees are
planned to be invested in rural development, housing etc. by the government of India
Market for
each item : The basic purpose
of the project is to eliminate the menace of waste plastic. As the waste
plastic cannot be eliminated without consuming, it has been proposed to use it
in useful activities. The life of
plastic is eternal. So it is usable in
long life products. The safest way is to
use it in construction materials in concealed form. The construction materials proposed to
manufacture are widely used hollow blocks, pavement blocks, sewage duct wall
blocks etc. These products have very
high demand. The main customers shall be
Railways, PWDs, Gramapanchayats, Municipalities etc. Civil construction companies shall also be
very potential consumers of the said items.
a) Hollow
Blocks : Concrete hollow blocks are extensively used by construction
companies. However, it is having a
draw-back that it is vulnerable to air and insects if not plastered well. If
the cavity is filled with a filler, this problem can be solved. So it is considered that waste plastic-cement
paste shall be filled in the cavities so as to fill the void and make an end to
the problem of waste plastic. Thus the
hollow blocks will get more popularity and shall be sold profitably. It is a very suitable item for low cost construction
of houses for the poor. Slum housing programme of the Central Government may be
benefited with this largely.
b) Pavement
Blocks: Pavement blocks are used largely by Railways for
construction of platforms. PWD will also
require pavement blocks for construction of
roads & other constructions, separation walls etc. Hollow blocks can also be used for a number
of their uses. Local bodies can use this
item largely for their civil works.
c) Sewage
Duct Wall Blocks: The normal practice now a days is to make walls
for sewage ducts using burnt bricks or ready made slabs. Instead of this practice, plastic waste
concealed blocks may be used. This
blocks will remain in the earth for longer period. This may reduce the construction cost
considerably. This is also required
largely by PWDs, Railways, Local Governing bodies etc.
As
such it can be found that the market for the proposed items is very wide and
the products are having very good selling scope.
d) Market for items obtained through Romelt
Technology is just emerging and will be sold profitably in the inter national
market.
B) Selling Arrangement : Selling
arrangement depends up of the way of functioning the unit. The unit can be set up and run by the local
governing bodies or by the licenced company.
In the event of any run unit by the Government bodies, they can make arrangements
by issuing instruction to the customer- -organizations to purchase these items
as and when required. In the case of
running the unit by licensed companies, they can make their own arrangements
for selling the products. In that case,
the profit will go to that company.
However, in both the cases, it is advisable that the Government can
consider to give subsidy to these products in view of the service rendered in
the way of waste problem-solving factor involved in it. Railways and PWDs can be instructed to give
preference to these items. As such the
selling is not at all a problem in this case.
The
promoters propose to sell these items through the production centres. Sales Managers & Sales representatives
will be appointed for canvasing orders for the product. The company can consider to deliver the
product in their own vehicle. They can also consider subsidised rates to push
up the sales.
C) Profit : Profit
will, if there is any, be appropriated for loan repayment and for investment in
the development of other units.
III. Project Details
1. Location,
Land & Building:
a) Location :
The project is proposed to be located some-where near the Corporation
area/District Head Quarters area. The
Lactational Details will be in accordance with location selected subsequently.
The proposed location should be suitable for the project. It may be far away
from the congested dwelling areas of the public. Even if there may be no
pollution problem caused by the project, it is proposed to be at a location
little far away from dwelling areas. The
proposed site should have access to electric power line with sufficient
capacity, water facility, transporting facility etc. The plastic waste is proposed not to be
dumped up for long period at the production site. It is proposed to consume the entire waste
plastic & MSW as and when it is arrived
in the site. Even if it is kept
for one or two days, it will not affect the public. There will be no type of emission from the
unit so that the project will not make any type of nuisance to the public. It is a completely closed process also. There shall be ample road to the proposed
site so that transportation of raw materials and finished goods will be
easy. Sufficient water facility shall
also be available in the proposed site.
As such the location must be suitable for the project in the view of
infrastructural facilities required for the project.
b) Land: The
minimum requirement of land is estimated to be maximum 5 Hector. This is for accommodating buildings to
comprise production, store, curing tanks, office, rest house for workers, park
area for vehicles etc. The cost of land
is estimated to about 10,000/- rupees per cent.
However, this much land is required to be made available by the local
governing body free of cost so that no cash flow will be there from the
promoting company towards land cost. The
land will be utilized for construction of production centre, store, curing
tank, office, testing houses for workers etc.
The Trust proposes to avail so much land on permanent lease @ Rs. 1/-
per cent.
The land will be
protected by a compound wall with gate and lock. It is assumed that the areas mentioned above
is sufficient for setting up & functioning the project satisfactorily.
The land can be made available
by the local body on a nominal fee as lease for a period of about 99 years or
for a period that the local body wishes to continue to eliminate the threat of
waste plastic menace. As the land is
made available at consideration up to the period of paying out the term loan,
this can be offered as security for the financial assistance if proposed to be
availed from any financial institutions.
The local body is required to give sanctions for offering the land as
security for the financial assistance as well as mortgaging the super structure
to the financial institution in the event of loan.
c. Building
: A built up area of 13,500 sq ft is
required for satisfactory working of the project. The cost estimated for all civil construction
is Rs. 50,00,000/-. This much built up area is required for accommodating plant
and machinery, office, store, lavatory, rest houses for workers etc. A compound
wall a well, overhead water tank etc. are also required to be constructed. A curing tank is required for curing the
blocks. A closed area is proposed to stock raw materials so that it will not
pilfered to the nearby premises. However, the construction cost of building has
been avoided from the present calculations since it may vary from place to
place.
Detailed Plan and Estimate
are given as Annexure III & IV. The
building will be constructed as soon as the land is availed, picking of the
waste plastic & MSW will also be started and stored safely in the premises
for onward processing.
The building will be constructed
by contractors for speedy implementation.
Details of the buildings proposed to be constructed are available from
the detailed plan and estimate.

4. Product Mix, Sales Realisation &
Other incomes
The
project is basically intended to eliminate the menace of waste plastic &
MSW currently confronted universally by National Governments, State
Governments, local self Governments etc.
As the waste elimination is hugely expensive, no Governments seemed to
be interesting to under take such projects.
Understanding this aspect, the promoters have decided to use plastic
waste for constructive uses such as manufacturing civil construction materials
and sell end products obtained through Romelt Technology and plastic reinforced
construction materials. So this serves both the purposes of making profit and
eliminating waste plastic 8 MSW. It is
solving a great problem at the same time making profit by doing business. As such it should be remunerated both the
ways too i.e., it should be remunerated for lifting the waste as well as the
product should be sold profitably.
Accordingly the promoters expect
income in the following ways.
1. An allowance for lifting the waste
plastic & other waste from the dumping locations.
2. Sales Revenue from the sale of blocks
of different types.
3. Sales of products obtained from Romelt
process
These have been calculated as
following:
1. Vehicles have to be traveled to collect
waste on daily basis in big cities and once in two or three days in smaller
cities & towns. Employees are to be
engaged to collect the waste. For
meeting this waste lifting expenses every local body may pay an amount as
decided mutually by the local bodies and
the promoters. The promoters
expect an amount from all the municipalities, Panchayaths, cities etc. in every district. A district may have a
number of major cities, town, municipalities etc. They can share the amount and pay to the
promoters.
As
such, an amount of Rs. 1.00 lakhs per month is expected from every Municipality
or a District Panchayat should provide Rs. 10.00 lakh per months so that an
amount of Rs. 120 lakhs will be received from any District.
2. Sale
1.
Basis : Capacity of the machines is 500 Nos per hour thus
8Hrs = 4000 Blocks per day.
8Hrs = 4000 Blocks per day.
2.
Bricks/Blocks : These are waste plastic-cement filled concrete blocks. These
can be sold to construction companies.
The standard sizes are as following.
400mm
x 200mm x 200mm
400mm
x 150mm x 200mm
400mm
x 100mm x 200mm
They
are sold at Rs. 18, 15 & 13 respectively.
However they are very competitive now a days and the promoters will be
compelled to sell at lower rates. However for calculation purpose, the selling
rate has been taken at 18/- per block
that is the cost of biggest one. So that the income will be Rs. 72,000/-
per day. X 365 days Rs. 262.80 lakhs per annum at 100% capacity
utilisation. A double capacity machine
will produce this much bricks and turnover shall be Rs. 262.80 lakhs.
The
main product is block and the manufacturing cost will be same for the other
items also. But there will be difference
in unit price. The installed capacity of
the machine is calculated to one block in 30 seconds. So that one machine will produce 960 blocks
per day. Further details are given in
annexure No. VII. The promoters also
expect an allowance of Rs. 2.5 lakhs in the district level per months as waste
lifting allowance. All the
municipalities & corporations can contribute jointly as per their approach
and the payment of this much amount will be very easy.
The
products received from MSW is the extracted goods like iron, copper, nickal
etc. The degradable items are turned to other useful products. As such it will at least Rs. 100 lakhs per
annum.
Total
income per annum is calculated as following:
Sl.No. Particulars Rs
in Lakhs
1. Allowance from local bodies 547.50
2. Sales of plastic reinforced blocks 262.80
Total 810.30
5. Use of the product
The products proposed to manufacture is
construction materials like concrete blocks, pavement blocks, sewage duct wall
blocks etc. filled in with waste plastic
paste and concealed with concrete so as to make no contact with outer
world. The use of these items are well
evident from the name itself. The demand
for the item is being increased continuously.
They are used in construction of civil structures, road making, sewage
ducts making etc. The MSW will yield
metals like iron, copper, nickel and other useful products.
6. Manufacturing Process
Waste
Plastic reinforced construction material.
The process of manufacturing
is fully automatic. At first, waste
plastic is collected from all the corners and made clean. Then it will be cut to small pieces and mixed
with cement & glue so as to form a paste form. This will be filled in the cavities of hollow
blocks automatically. This will be
sealed with concrete itself. Then they
will be subjected to drying through hot wind.
On setting firmly, it is subjected to curing in curing tank. On setting firmly, it will be ready for
disposal.
The technical aspects are kept
confidential. The process along with
concept, machinery and designs etc are patented provisionally. They are available for examination on
entering into an agreement for execution of the project by making firm
arrangements for remuneration for the technology.
7. Technical
Know How
a. Waste
plastic
Technical know how is a
provisionally patented asset of the promoters.
The promoters will execute the project after entering into an agreement
for execution. They will manage to
manufacture plant & machinery and manufacturing of the product will also be
done by them. However, in case of
requirement by the parties who wish to execute the project by themselves, the
promoters will provide technology, training to the personnel, onward
consultancy etc. All these services are
a part of the agreement on payment.
8. Specification
& Standards
1. Waste
Plastic
The products are proposed to
be manufactured according to the standards specified by the Indian Standards
Institution/World Standard Institutions.
All the products are proposed to be sold
to government agencies, railways etc. in addition to the private construction
companies. All the products will be in
accordance with their standards. The
blocks are of standard size and the common size blocks are 400m x 200mm, 400mm
x 200mm x 150mm x 400mm 200mm. Pavements blocks and sewage duct wall blocks
are of various sizes and are made according to the requirements. However, the content ratio will be as per the
approved standards.
9. Raw
materials and consumable
1. Waste
plastic
a. Availability :
Waste plastic & MSW are available in scattered from everywhere in all
localities.
b.
Collection of waste plastic: The collection of waste plastic is one of
the main problem to be faced. Now the
waste plastic is lying everywhere and to be collected. Municipal workers usually collect them in
vehicles and threw away in some remote areas to inflaming or land filling.
1. Waste
plastic will be made a demanded item by taking it at a cost of Rs. 5/- per Kg.
MSW will be packed up from the dumping yards.
As far as the promoters are
concerned, the plastic will be picked up
every day from all localities employing labors.
Now it is lying in accumulated or scattered manner. It will take at least six months to finish the
present accumulated waste lying everywhere. After finishing them, the picking
will be adjusted according to the availability.
At least 10 trucks will be
employed in a district for collecting waste on daily basis. Main cities will be given more attention
while from smaller places, waste will be collected once in two or three days
regularly after finishing the present level of accumulated waste.
After finishing the level of
dumped up waste, the municipal authorities will have to give striet instructions
to citizens to deposit these waste in special bin/ containers which proposed to
be distributed by the promoters. As such plastic & paper waste can be
collected from such containers provided by the promoters. The municipal
authorities may give direction in the line of guidance issued by Central
Pollution Control Board. The promoters will employ sufficient employees to
collect waste from the dumping areas.
The local authorities are at
present spending a lot of money for taking away the different kinds of wastes
repeatedly every month. This is required to be stopped and they should decide
to spend once for installing such a permanent waste destroying system. This
will help to save a lot of money every year as recurring expenses.
2. Cement
: Cement is another raw material for manufacturing blocks. Cement is
sufficiently available everywhere. The requirement of cement for the project is
calculated and given in Annexure No. VII.
3. Sand
/ quarry chips are also required for the project. This is sufficiently
available in the localities. The details are available in Annexure No. VIII
4. Synthetic
glue is also planned to be used in the manufacturing. This will give a sticky
nature to the plastic particles. This will act as reinforcement agent and will
give extra strength to product.
5. MSW : All types of degradable waste
10. Utilities
1. Electricity
All machines are functioning with electricity. The details including
capacity of machinery have been given in the following table:

Total cost comes to Rs. 2.21 Lakhs
per annum.
2. Water: Water is required for
manufacturing the blocks. Water shall be made available from own well or public
distribution system. The cost of water has not been included in calculations as
it is assumed to be made available free of cost. Water is also required for
curing the cement blocks. Own well is desirable because water availed from
public distribution system may not be economical.
3. Fuel: Natural gas is used as fuel in the
project. Hot air is produced by
heating with electricity. Natural gas is
available sufficiency.
11. Pollution
& effluent disposal
Possibility for generation of
pollution is rare in the project. All the raw materiels are completely used in
the process so that nothing is remained to be disposed off.
Water is proposed to be
sprayed sufficiently for setting in curing tank so as to avoid remaining of
curing water in tank. As such nothing is remained to be disposed off.
The plastic cutting is
performed in fully concealed chambers so that not a minute piece is escaped
into the atmosphere. The cement is also handled in completely concealed
chamber. After one stage the small particles of cement & plastic will be
mixed with water so that the possibility for flying in the atmosphere is
diminished. As such the fear of any pollution is not worthy and all
possibilities of pollution are solved in its origin itself. MSW is directly
supplied to the preheated machine for direction consumption. So nothing remained outside the plant.
12
Organizational
Set Up
a) The project is proposed to be set up in the following ways.
As the menace caused by waste plastic is omnipresent, the project is required
to be set up in every district. Accordingly the project will be implemented,
State and National level. All project will be managed by the promoters through
employees and intra net arrangements from one central office
b)
Manpower Requirement
The details of manpower
requirement is given as Annexure No. X. Each project will give employment to
about 20 personnel directly and several other indirectly.
13. Schedule of implementation
The
promoters have taken several steps towards the implementation of the project.
They have already taken steps to get approval from the government. The local
administrative bodies have been approached with proposals. The remaining steps

2. Cost of Project in Details
a) Land: The land is expected to be made available
free of cost from the local self governing body. As such the land cost has been
exempted from the cost of project. Otherwise, land may be acquired on lease
basis for longer periods, say 99 years.
b) Building: The cost of building & other civil
structures required for the project is to be estimates as per the particulars
of the district considering the quantum of waste to be processed. This is
expected to be provided by the local authority. The cost will not at any rate
will go beyond Rs.15.00 lakhs per shed. The building proposed is a type
building suitable for the project ..
c) Plant
& Machinery: Cost of this has been estimated and given
earlier.
d) Misc.
fixed Assets: The cost of
this comes to Rs 125 lakhs. This has not been included in the Project Cost at
the 1st Stage.
e) Contingency:
It is expected to have some escalation in the cost of plant & machinery,
building cost etc. for which a provision of 8.5% on fixed asset has been made
as contingency. However, this has not been taken into account in calculating
the cost of project.
f) Preliminary
& Pre- Operative Expenses.
This includes the following
1.Survey and feasibility study:
Points
of study:
a) Waste Generation Points
b) Quantity generated
c) Impact of waste in the waste generated points
d)

For the purpose
of studies and survey, the said areas have been divided into wards. Most of the
panchayats comprise normally 10 to 20 wards, municipalities 20 to 30 wards and
Corporations 80 to 100 wards. As such the average number of wards has been
taken as following.
1. Village
Panchayat 15 Wards x 991 Panchayats = 14,865 Wards
2.
Municipalities 30 Wards x 52
Municipalities = 1560 wards
3.
Corporations 80 Wards x 5 Corporation =
400 Wards
Therefore Total Waste Generating Points = 16,825
It is assumed
that at least 3 man days will be required to visit and collect the relevant
data from the city and municipal corporations where the density of population
and quantity of plastic waste is far higher than the rural Panchayat areas.
Thus a total of 5,880 man days would be required to complete the feasibility
study in the City and Municipal Corporations. We assume one man day for each
rural Panchayat Ward for the above mentioned study on an average. Thus 14,865
man days would be required to complete the feasibility study in all the
Punchayat wards of the state. The financial and time requirement for the
feasibility study is given below.
2. Costing
(Survey and Feasibility Study)
The following are
the points of study proposed for this project:
1.
Main sources of waste generation
2.
Places or points where the waste is dumped.
3. Approximate quantity
of plastic waste and proportion of garbage.
4.
What are the facilities provided by the local authority at present

The survey will
be conducted in two phases.The first phase will cover the entire City and
Municipal Corporations of the state.We propose to engage 1 person in each
Municipality/corporation who will collect the secondary data from the local
body authorities and then move on to collect primary data through spot visits
and administering of questionnaires. We assume 35 days to complete the first
phase by deploying 57 executives. The panchayat wards will be covered by these
executives in the second phase .

price of other products too will be same. So it has not been calculated seperately.
4. The
local self government bodies are expected to give Rs. 1500/- per Tonnes as
a whole for District. Every District is
having several Municipalities, Gramapanchayets, City
Corporation, Town etc. All these institution can allot certain
amount in accordance with their capacity & generation of waste. Under this head the promoters expect
Rs. 547.50 lakhs per annum per unit.
(1500
x 100 TPD x 365 days).
The
total turnover comes to Rs. 810.30 lakhs per annum per unit at 100% capacity utilisation.
5. The
capacity utilisation will be as followings :
70%,
80%, 90% shall be capacity utilisation from 1st, 2nd, 3rd year and onwards.
1. raw
materials & consumables
The followings are the material required for the unit.
1. Waste Plastic : It is basically a waste plastic & MSW
elimination project. As such waste
plastic are considered as the main raw material. There are
available free of cost. But collection overheads are there. The cost of collection charge has been
included in the labour charge.
Collection of MSW & plastic waste are proposed to be made by own
truck so that petrol charges are taken as consumables.
2. Cement : The proposed
ratio of raw material for block making is 1:4:8: of this ‘1’ represents
cement. The production per day is 4000
bricks of 400 x 200 = 1600 c. cm
Cement Comes to 123 c. cm for one

project to be useful for elimination of waste plastic.
2. Risk
No. 2 : Will the self governing body pay for
lifting the waste ?
Solution : At
present they spend huge amount every year for deposing
waste. But if they are prepared to pay
only the lifting charges, the present day
failure can be resolved.
Solution
2 : The
promoters expect assistance from world organisations for
solving environmental problems. As the
promoter is a registered
public trust, the project is eligible for assistance under
35 AC.
