Recycle Apartment Wastes and Earn Rich Dividends
The Chennai Corporation has offered assistance to large apartment complexes by offering to collect non-biodegradable waste and excess manure.
For instance, Asiana Flat Owners Association in Venus Colony, Alwarpet, is reaping the benefits of source segregation. Six women segregate waste collected from the flats. They work two hours to separate plastics and non-biodegradables from household waste. A fine is imposed on those who violate the rules of disposal or forget to leave their garbage for collection. And violations are not a rarity, they admit.
While a “corporate approach” has worked well for the apartment complex, enthusing students to participate has helped D G Vaishnav College to manage its waste for the past 18 months.The project began with collecting canteen waste and teaching the students to drop waste in dustbins. The college conservancy staff segregates the waste. The Madras Institute of Technology, Chromepet, is also building compost sheds.
