This course has emphasises on Integrated Solid Waste Management aspects within the broad subject area of Integrated Waste Management for a Smart City. The issues of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) management, Construction and Demolition (C&D) Waste and Electronic Waste Management will be covered in this course. The topics will include: generation rates and waste composition; Integrated waste management issues, collection, recovery, reuse, recycling, energy-from-waste, and landfilling; Biological treatment of the organic waste fraction - direct land application, composting, and anaerobic digestion. The environmental impact of waste management and its relationship on the big picture sustainable development and smart city development will be discussed. A major focus of this course will be the role of MSW management within the various initiatives of the Govt. of India including: Swachh Bharat Mission, Smart Cities as well as Make in India. The challenges of waste management for smart cities will also be discussed taking case studies from the first list of 20 smart cities identified in the first phase for this program. This will be followed by overview of the Construction and Demolition (C&D) Waste and Electronic Waste (E-Waste) management issues in India in general and for the smart cities in particular. The new rules with respect of C&D Waste and E-Waste Management will be covered. The challenges of managing these waste streams effectively will be discussed.INTENDED AUDIENCEThe course will be beneficial for B.Tech/M.Tech/B.Sc/M.Sc/Research Scholars/Faculty members from different institutions. In addition, we will strongly encourage engineers/professionals working in any area related to waste management should consider taking advantage from this unique application orientated course. Regulators (SPCB, CPCB and MOEF professionals) and policy makers will also benefit from this course.PRE-REQUISITES Environmental Sciences, Introduction to Environmental EngineeringINDUSTRY SUPPORT Larsen and Tourbo, Tata Group of Industries, Ramky Group of Industries, IF&LS Environment
