The primary objective of CDC is ‘zero garbage on roads’ and “improvement in quality of life” by following a concrete, concerted, explicit approach with dedication & determination for the community.

CDC has developed an innovative model for the scientific & prolific management of waste. Genesis of this concept of scientific & prolific management of waste conceived looking at the services of municipal bodies. Their services are limited to sanitation outside the house. But as a fact domestic garbage contributes to 80% of the total waste generated. Presently, this garbage comes out in the form of polythene bags. These, by chocking the drains which are life veins of health & sanitation causes environmental hazards, detrimental for humans. Also disposal of waste generated due to increase in population is a problem. Moreover as habitation is increasing in all directions of the city & no trenching ground is available. So, to avoid all these situations we developed a model with the following in mind:

• Segregation of wastes at source
• Zero garbage on roads
• Prolific disposal of waste
• Peoples participation in Urban waste management
• Sustainability of the process
• Socio- economic upliftment of schedule castes
• Non hazardous handling of waste

Our Approach: 

The Total Solution of Sanitation Problem includes the following activities:

1. Door-to-door Waste Collection & Street Sweeping 

Households are requested to store domestic waste in segregated containers for wet and dry waste. Garbage is collected on a daily basis and stored in covered rickshaws, protecting waste collectors from unnecessary exposure to waste. The resources needed for implementation of door-to-door waste collection include special rickshaws and human resources for collecting the garbage as well as supervision.

We make use of mechanized Sweepers for wide & lengthy roads while narrow roads, lanes, bi-lanes will be cleaned manually using long stick brooms and appropriate containers. Waste collected from street sweeping, bushes, weeds cleaning etc. is transferred to community bins or temporary collection points, whichever is optimal & convenient.

2. Transportation of Waste

The waste is collected and transported from predetermined locations and times. CDC is responsible for the maintenance and cleanliness of garbage depots and containers. The community is involved in the monitoring process to ensure the effectiveness of the program. The required equipment will be defined based on the amount of waste and the distance to the final disposal site. Dumper placers will be provided if containers are used to collect the garbage.

Vermi-Composting is a productive alternative to land-filling and burning waste. It is the process by which vermi casting powders/worms are used over wet waste to create highly nutritive vermi compost. Compost generated from this method is good for soil reclamation because it increases organic matter and microorganisms in fields, balances nutritive elements, increases moisture in soil, and compared to fertilizers vermi-compost, does not harm crops or contain hazardous chemical material.
