Abstract - This study discusses the present solid waste management practices in the Kanpur municipal region in the Kanpur district of Uttar Pradesh state, India. The exponential growth in population as well as the general advancement of society and businesses are the main causes of the city's rising generation of solid waste. One of the essentialcomponents ofsolid waste management is routing, and optimizing the collection route reduces travel time and disposal expenses. In order to identify the most efficient routes for municipal solid waste (MSW) collections in Kanpur, India, this study integrated the network analyzer tool's algorithms and built-in optimization techniques into the Geographical Information System (GIS) platform. According to our study, there was a 5.59 km decrease in the chosennetwork.

1. INTRODUCTION

Different methods are used to handle, store, collect, and dispose of the wastes produced by the many human sports.Therefore,ifgarbageisnotmanagedappropriately, waste management places a risk on the environment and hasanegativeimpactonpublichealth.Kanpur'ssystemof reliable garbage management is no longer unique among the vast majority of Indian cities. Kanpur Nagar Nigam (KNN) had the responsibility for collecting, transporting, andcastingoffthestrongwastegeneratedinsidethetown, predictedataboutathousand tons in keeping with day in Kanpur. As consistentwith provisional reports of Census India, the populace of Kanpur in 2011 is 27. Seventy-four Lakhs, Kanpur town is administratively divided into 6 zones and one hundred tenwards. There are 203 lively collectionfactorsinseveral wardsofsixzones.Runningon KanpurNagarNigam,region2 wards ninety-five and total wastegatheredis80%drywasteand20%wetwaste.

2.2 Arc G3IS

ArcGIS is a geographical information system (GIS) software that allows handling and analyzing geographic information by layer-building graphical statistics through layer-building maps like climate data and modeling natural systemprocessesand functions.Using thatBend ViewArc GIS 10.4, the raster picture that appeared on the pcscreenis changedoverintovectordelineations.

2.3 Digitization

The numerous definite enhancement plan for Zone 2 ward 95 of Nagar Nigam Kanpur have been investigated. Using Arc View via GIS, the filtered images are then digitized. Digitizing: Refers to the process of convertingreferenceddatatodigitalformat(shapefile).

2.4 Collection and Storage of waste

Kanpur Nagar Municipal ward 95 zone 2 generates roughly 400 kg of solid trash each day. Domestically generated MSW is collected inthecity bystreet sweepingwith conventional shorthandledbroomsandtheDoortoDoorcollectionsystem..Waste bycollectingTATAACEEHoppersofthecity.Solidwastein themunicipalareaiscollected.Thesolidwastecollectionis 100% in the area. Presently sweeping, collection and transportationactivitiesaredonebysanitaryworkersinthe municipality. Further,a tractor isused for transporting the collectedwastetothedumpingground.

2.5 Transportation of waste

Transportation of solid waste includes lifting of closed containers, lifting of dead animals, and lifting of silt from nalla.Thetransportationofunattendedwasteinopenplots and unwept waste in slums is also done manually or mechanically through a variety of vehicles. Approximately two closed containers of waste are emptied into a bigger tipper at the transfer station which is taken for final transfer toalandfillsite.

2.6 Processing of waste

Kanpur Municipal organization has a stable waste managementplant,forthe processingof biomedical waste and casting off the unsegregated, strong Waste on the dumping floor. Further, the fabric is transferred to the segregationphasewherewasteisisolatedinvariousforms which include wet, dry, recyclable, and inert wastes.

2.6.1 Composting

Due to a lack of area landfills, biodegradable backyard waste is allowed to decompose in a medium designed for the reason. The handiest biodegradable waste substances are utilizedincomposting.Itsmilesabiologicalprocessinwhich microorganisms, specifically fungi, and bacteria convert degradablenaturalwasteintosubstanceslikehumans.This finished product, which seems like soil is excessive in carbon andnitrogen.Precisefineenvironmentallyfriendlymanureis fashioned from compost which is a first-rate medium for developing vegetation and can be used for agricultural purposes.

2.6.2 Incineration

In this method, stable wastes are burned at high temperatures until they are reduced to ashes. Incinerators are constructed in such a way that when burning solid waste,theydonotproduceexcessiveheat.Waste-to-energy plants are incinerators that reuse thermal energy through furnaces and boilers. Because they need specialized equipmentandcontrols,highlyqualifiedtechnicalstaff,and auxiliary fuel facilities, waste-to-energy systems are more expensive to install and operate than simple incinerators. Thistechniqueofstrongwastemanagementcanbefinished by people, municipalities and even institutions. The coolest element about this approach is the reality that it reduces the extent of waste up to twenty or thirty of the authentic quantity.

2.6.3 Recycling

Recycling or restoration of sources is the method of taking beneficial however discarded items for subsequent use. Plastic baggage, tins, glass, and boxes are frequently recycled automatically considering, in lots of situations, they're likely to be scarce commodities.

3.1 Primary collection of solid waste

The primary collection of segregated MSW from individual households and establishments (door-to-door collection) is accomplished through the use ofcontainerized pushcarts, tricycles or small mechanized vehicles, compactors,ortippingvehiclesdependingontheterrainofthe locality,widthofstreets,andbuildingdensity.

4. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

TheGISprovideddetailedinformationonroadnetwork connectivity among different study points. After applying QGIS‘networkanalysttool,’andgivingthestartingnodes,i.e., variouswardsonebyone,andthedestinationnode,i.e.,the etransferstation,thealgorithmidentifiedtheshortestpath and provided the same on a GIS map, along with route distance,foreachofthedesiredlinks.Theoptimizedroutes generated from this approach were compared with the current routes that measured the distance between the individual ward to the disposal site at the Transfer station. The QGIS network analyst tool was applied by making the ward number 95 as a starting point of vehicle1 (S1) to the transfer station as a destination as shown in Fig.4. The shortestroutewasfoundas11.63km(optimizeddistance), compared to 13.09 km (existing route distance), and vehicle2 (S2) as shown in Fig.5. The shortest route was found as 10.45km compared to 12.05km, and vehicle3 (S3)asshownin Fig.6. The shortest route was found as 10.75km, compared to 11.65km, and for the vehicle4 (S4) as shown in Fig.7. The shortest route was found 10.23km, compared to 11.29km, and for the vehicle5 (S5) as shown in Fig.8. The shortest route was found as 9.22km, compared to 9.79km (exiting route distance), that is practiced by municipal vehicles for transportationpurpose.TheArcGIS-optimizedrouteshowed that.
