Clean Tech, a Finnish company, will take over waste management in major UP cities, including Lucknow. The state government and the company signed a memorandum of understanding on this. In addition to investing about $2 million in state waste management, the company can also build a new waste disposal facility in Lucknow. According to a representative of the Lucknow Municipal Corporation (LMC), AVS Group oversees the company's operations in India.
The Clean Tech team visited the Shivri plant earlier. Information about the operation and feasibility of the plant was exchanged during a meeting with the municipal commissioner.
The company's chief executive officer then met with top officials from the state's urban development department and the state's minister of urban development, Arvind Sharma.
After that, the company gave a presentation on its action plan for working on waste management in UP cities and the memorandum of understanding was signed.
"It is clear that this company will now carry out waste management work in the city," said Municipal Commissioner Inderjeet Singh. It will be the third company to take on this task. The company, like the previous one, will only collect waste from door to door and dispose of it in the factory. The GMW will sweep the roads.
He stated, "Clean Tech has signed an agreement with the state government to invest in waste management." The new company will be responsible for the work as soon as the government issues an order.
According to LMC officials, the disposal of waste from Shivri will take a year.
In the Shivri factory, there is so much waste that getting rid of it can take more than a year. The equipment there is also old. Arvind Rao, an additional municipal commissioner, stated: "Clean Tech can set up a new factory in such a situation."
According to Singh, the company's proposal will be executed in accordance with government orders. Land will be provided for the company's new plant, he added.
Under the JNNURM scheme for scientific waste disposal, the city's waste management plan was approved in 2007, and the waste management plant at Shivri went into operation in 2012. Jyoti Envirotech, a city-based company, was initially given the task of managing waste. Ecogreen Energy, a Chinese business, was given this duty in 2017. Additionally, it functioned well for two years before failing to perform as intended. At the Shivri plant, a mountain of 20 lakh metric tons of trash has resulted.
