a part of Integrated Common Hazardous Waste Treatment, Storage, Disposal and Recycling Facilities at
Block No. 37, Survey No. 205 of Puthenkurissu village, Kunnathunad Taluk, Ernakulam district.
Proposed project of setting up of the Common Bio-medical Waste Treatment Facility includes
Incinerator, Autoclave, Shredder and Effluent Treatment Plant. The present proposal is to utilize
2.5 acres land a part of TSDF site for setting up of Biomedical Waste Treatment Facility. The
extent of land earmarked for the CBWTF will be keep apart from the remaining land of TSDF.
Existing capacity of TSDF is 50000 MT /Annum in 50 acre land. The proposed plant capacity is

Equipment Capacity Number


Incinerator 250-300 kg /hr 2
Autoclave 250 ltrs 2
Shredder 350 kg / hr 1
Effluent Treatment 50 m3 / day 1
Plant

Biomedical waste is generated from all health care institutions; nursing homes, clinics,
dispensaries, veterinary institutions, animal houses, pathological laboratories, blood banks etc.
The responsibility of collection, treatment and safe disposal of all types of solid wastes rests with
the generator. A Common Bio-medical Waste Treatment Facility (CBWTF) is a set up where
bio-medical waste, generated from a number of healthcare units, is suitably treated as per the
prescribed procedure & norms laid down in the regulation.

Project falls under Category “A” Projects of activity 7 (d) as per EIA Notification dated 14th
September, 2006 and its subsequent amendments dated 1st December 2009 and 4th April, 2011,
under Common hazardous waste treatment. The site and study area falls in the survey of India,
Topo Sheet No. – C43K08 and C43Q05.The co-ordinates of the site are

Control Board has given NOC for setting up a CBWTF in the 50 acres of land allotted for TSDF.
Land is owned by Govt. of Kerala and has been leased to KEIL for 50 years.

Supply water from FACT CD, Ambalamedu, Kochi. Waste water generated from the treatment
of Biomedical wastes during autoclaving, washing of floors, etc. shall be treated in effluent
treatment plant.

The manpower requirement during Construction phase will be 50 & during operation phase will
be 50. The labours and workers will be hired from nearby villages. The power demand during the
construction phase is 100kW and operational phase is 200kW. Supply source –Kerala State
Electricity Board (KSEB). In case of power failure D.G. Set can be used (250 KVA capacity).
The estimated cost of the project is about Rs 4.9 crores.

Setting up of CBWTF by M/s Kerala Enviro Infrastructure Limited, shall be an important


endeavor to mitigate the degradation of environment in the region.
