Solid Waste Management System

Solid waste refers to any unwanted, unusable, or discarded solid material typically generated from houses, industries and other human activities. Based on its origin, it can be classified as domestic, industrial, commercial, construction or institutional waste. It can be organic materials, glass, metal, plastic and e-waste. It can be further classified as hazardous waste like toxic, flammable, radioactive, infectious etc. All campuses of Technopark have been designed with the mandatory requirements and even more to promote and support green initiatives and ecological responsibilities. Our IT Park campuses in Kerala pursue an integrated strategy for waste management that comprises waste segregation at source, collection and disposal. Tenants and employees are also encouraged to adopt waste reduction practices, use reusable items and reduce the use of plastic. The salient features of our waste management system are

Waste Treatment Plant and its capacity

Aerobic microbial composting using bio bin-1 ton /day
Bio gas plant -3 tons/day
Total capacity to process biodegradable rejections -4 tons/ day 

Utilization of end products

The compost produced per day is an average 20% of the input material which is 200kgs/day. The produced compost is used as organic manure for the gardens in the 165 acre campus of Technopark.

Utilization of bio gas and discharge slurry

The biogas generated is used as fuel to cook food for the workers and also as fuel for the incinerator. The resulting slurry is used as liquid organic manure for gardening.

Waste Water Treatment Plant

The waste water generated from washing of vessels are treated in the WTP plant and reused for cleaning and gardening.

The non- biodegradable rejections

Materials are collected directly from the source and kept separate from biodegradable waste. The non-biodegradable waste is then transported directly from the source to the Material Collection Facility (MCF), which has a roof-covered floor area of 22 meters by 11 meters. Upon arrival at the MCF, the materials are sorted and stored in designated cubicles according to their type. The stored materials are then handed over to recycling industries for eco-friendly disposal. 

Through these efforts Technopark aims to minimise its environmental footprint and inspire green initiatives in the IT domain.
