Mixed-Waste Processing Assessment
What to do with the mixed waste that segregation hasn’t reached yet.
Until segregation is universal, cities face mixed waste that needs handling. We assess the realistic options — mechanical sorting, RDF, stabilisation — as a bridge, while pushing source segregation as the real fix.
- Mixed waste is a reality during the transition
- Wrong processing choices waste money and pollute
- It must be framed as a bridge, not a substitute for segregation
Handling mixed waste without losing the plot
Until segregation is universal, cities still face mixed waste — mechanical sorting, RDF and stabilisation are realistic bridges, but only ever bridges.
Mixed-waste processing is a bridge, not a substitute. Every rupee spent sorting mixed waste is effort that source segregation would have saved — treat it as transitional while segregation scales.
A clear, practical approach
Mixed-waste composition and volumes.
Sorting, RDF and stabilisation weighed realistically.
A bridge plan alongside segregation push.
