Abstract - Due to insufficient and inadequate collection,
treatment and disposal techniques, waste management as well as treatment has become a critical issue and we are facing stern problems related to the environment. In order to avoid this grave problem of solid waste treatment and management, it is the duty of every local authority to provide proper facilities for the same. In spite of this crucial problem of solid waste collection, disposal and treatment, Pune municipal council has provided such efficient and proper facilities in which solid waste that is generated is collected and used as a resource for the generation of electricity. Due to this ultimately the burden or rather the environmental issues are reducing to such an extent that the problems in the vicinity where this plant is located is minimal. This paper includes everything right from the way collection of solid waste is done to the generation of electricity using the anaerobic digester. Key Words: Solid waste treatment, biodegradable waste, electricity, biogas
1.0 INTRODUCTION Today, Solid Waste Disposal technology is an urging field & it is also needed for further survival & welfare of human being. Being environmental engineers staying updated with the latest trends and technologies as well as advanced and practical applications has become very crucial in order to survive in the co-operate world. Similar to many imminent cities, Pune also faces a major shortfall in the demand and supply gap in its waste management services due to huge population escalation and small scale waste management services. About 2500 TPD waste collected 68% is domestic waste coming from residents,11% from street sweeping and drain cleaning,10% from hotel and restaurants, 5% from Construction and demolition Waste ,4% from market and commercial area,2% from Fruit, vegetable, fish, meat market waste ,Bio-medical waste etc. Thus it is seen that the residential, street sweeping and hotel -restaurant are the major waste generation sources .The PMC is responsible for collection ,transportation and disposal of the above waste except untreated bio-medical waste.

its solid waste management is non conventional. They accept the solid waste as a resource rather than a matter to dispose. ENPROTECH solutions approach towards waste management is done in a comprehensive manner with careful selection and sustained application of appropriate technology, working conditions. We carried out a case study at one of their Solid Waste Management projects i.e. model colony Pune.
Environmental Protection Techniques (Enprotech) solutions Solid Waste Management Project This project consists of a 1X5 TPD Capacity decentralized bio methanation-cum-power generation plant at ward no. 34, Pune, to treat segregated organic MSW–commissioned on 1st November 2009. The basic philosophy of setting up this plant is to treat the wet organic wastes in an appropriate manner at source point itself in a most environmental friendly manner. Solid Waste Management Project is one of the most important & significant aspect of this entire exercise.
The model colony biogas project plays an important role in maintaining the health & sanitation of model colony area of Pune. It is one of the well functioning plants in Maharashtra. The important features of the plant are mentioned below: Location : Model colony, Pune Commissioning of the project: 1st November 2009 Capital cost :60 lakhs Plant Capacity: 1X5 TPD per day segregated organic biodegradable municipal solid waste. Type of process: Biomethanation through Two Stage Biomethanation Process Biogas Generation :250-300 m3/day Electricity Generation :375 kWh/day Manure Generation :500 kg/day (on 50% Moisture Basis)
