With the launch of major decentralised waste management projects by Chief Minister Edappadi K.Palaniswami on Monday, Greater Chennai Corporation is set to kickstart a decentralisation drive for solid waste management. The earlier projects have all been small, with installed capacity of less than 10 tonnes. But the projects to be launched on Monday has a capacity to process more than 100 tonnes every day. For instance, the wet waste processing plant to be inaugurated in Chetpet has a capacity to process 100 tonnes of waste every day.

Work on six bio CNG facilities, each with the capacity of 100 tonnes at different locations will be completed shortly.
