Under the leadership of Urban Administration and Labour Minister Dr. Shiv Dahariya a joint group of Urban Administration and Housing and Enviornment Department is presently on a tour of Stockholm to conduct study of that country's Solid Waste Management System.
The study group led by Dr. Shiv Dahariya conducted the study of solid waste collection by Pneumatic Waste Management System, in Hammarby and Grozmarter areas with the help of Stockholm City Council. This system has enabled transportation of solid waste directly from homes to waste collection centre without any form of human intervention.
The group overviewed and discussed the various innovations taking place in Stockholm, in the field of solid waste management like sensor-based single inlet smart waste collection, bio gas production by solid waste and scientific waste disposal.
The study team included Secretary Urban Administration Alarmelmangai D., Secretary Housing and Environment Department Sangeeta P. and other senior officials.
