2. Current situation
The most practiced solution for waste
processing is dumping (on dumpsites)
MSW, animal waste, hospital waste, C&D..all
finds its way to the many dumpsites all over
India
Various cities are implementing segregating at
source, with various success rates
3. Common practice In India
Animal Waste
Organic
MSW (mixed)
Building
Materials
Hospital Waste
Dumpsite
4. Data driven, tech driven
Every city has a unique waste profile
It all starts with analyzing the quantity, quality,
location, seasonality, scatter pattern of the
various streams at hand
A data driven approach will allow better
decision making when deciding on
technology. A holistic approach is required
Incentives to be focus on “processing” not
“dumping”

8. No false expectations
100% waste processing is not (yet) feasible.
80-90% is: scientific landfilling will still be
required (but a whole lot less, for less
dangerous material!)
100% segregation at source is not possible.
Not in the West. And especially not within a
short time span in India (as per targets of
municipalities)
Sales of commodities will not cover cost of
waste management at current market rates:
government incentives are still required
9. The right incentive (support
prices)
Compost
CNG/Powe

s
2000-3000 INR per kg
PPA: 9-12 INR/kwh
CNG: 60 INR/kg
Minor revenue stream
10. Quick note on CNG
95% bio-gas is not sellable as auto-CNG due
to license restrictions
CNG prices are linked to LPG prices which are
subsidized
Market fluctuations increase risk of investment
Hence power is a more stable alternative from
an investment perspective. It is less efficient
however!
11. Additional incentives
Land
Processing fee (pre-processing activities)
Solution for 10-15% inerts in any integrated
waste management solution (land fills for
example)

29. Introduction W2V consortium
The Netherlands is positioned as the leader in
waste management
Consortium Partners selected on their value
propositions and the role they can play in a
solution for the problems in the area of waste
management in India.
All parties have experience in India
All consortium partners are offering products and
services that are sustainable in nature and will
benefit India greatly from a People-Planet-Profit
perspective.
Netherlands ministry of Infrastructure and
India ministry of Urban Development recently
have signed an MoU on collaboration
