Solid Waste Management

1.0) Introduction

The Urban Development Authority is executing Urban Regeneration Projects in district of

Colombo at Thalawathugoda middle income Housing Scheme. 400 housing units are
occupying entirely within habitable space, created by 28 numbers of floors, ground and
basement. Building contain two tower, housing unit in each of its twenty-three floors,
starting from fifth floors to twenty-eight floor, while the fourth floor facilitates swimming
pool and other entertainment area and below fourth contains car park slots and Building
utilization equipment and maintenance rooms.

Prepare and submission of this report is a prerequisite for obtaining permission for ‘Solid
Waste Management’ inside the premises of this particular site. Targeted regulatory bodies
for this report submission are Colombo Municipal Council (CMC) and Condominium
Authority.

2.0) Background

In accordance with national solid waste management policy, it requires all practical
measures to ensure safe solid waste management from the source upto final disposal
point, within the premises. Solid Waste Management (SWM) of this building is planned
in accordance with Guidelines by CMC and other documents given in the same
guidelines. In preparation of this document National ‘Colour codes’ for waste collection
bins were also taken into consideration.

In-house ‘solid wastes’ shall be handled voluntarily by occupant/ housemate. All the
occupants are responsible for transferring their day-to-day solid waste into designated
final disposal points at the ground, located outside the building footprint area.

Building complex is situated in a very congested area and space in the premises is
confined to its basic surrounding spatial limits, required by regulations. Therefore, onsite
treatment and/ or long durational storage are not possible. 400 housing units are
occupying whole habitable space, created by buildings within its 23 number of floors.
Area of each unit is varying from 850-1250Sq. ft. and it is assumed that average
occupancy in each housing unit is 3-5members.

In order to conform to the national requirements, the following will be ensured with
respect to the solid waste that originates in the location.

(a) Source segregation of waste at the point of origin

(b) Colour code containerization to avoid ground contacts
(c) Cover lid to waste bins to avoid vector access
(d) Under the normal conditions, temperature control during temporary storage to
minimize odour for short-term biodegradable waste.

4.0) Data Used

Building is coming under the category of ‘Residential Buildings’ as per CMC guild line.
Actions were taken to receive expertise consultancy in condominium maintenance during
planning stage.

Following tabulated waste characteristic (proportions) were considered for different

material, in accordance with Central Environmental Authority (CEA) records, and CMC
Solid Waste Composition Analysis 2009.

Solid Waste Management

Item Percentage
Biodegradable (Organic waste) 63.00
Polythene & plastic 17.00 – 23.00
Paper & Cardboard 4.00 – 7.00
Glass & Glass Bottles 1.65
Metal 2.00
Wooden & Rubber 1.15
Cloth/ garments waste 1.64
Sand & Garden waste 2.00
Sanitary waste 1.25
Other 1.81
Total 100.00

Considering the living standard of the occupants and space availability in a housing unit,
categorizations of wastes are limited to organic, polythene & plastic, paper & cardboard,
and finally as others. Under this category named ‘others’ are included glass, metals,
wood, cloths, sand and any other.

For the purpose of calculation of ‘in-house waste collection volumes’, bulk densities
related to different category of wastes are given below in Table 4.2.

Table 4.2 - Bulk Density of Loose Recovered Materials (kg/ m3)

Corrugated 16 to 32
Aluminum cans 32 to 48
Miscellaneous paper 48 to 64
Garden waste 64 to 80

Plastic and Polythene 180 to 200
Rubber 209 to 258
Glass bottles 193 to 305
Food waste 353 to 401
Tin cans 64 to 80

Bulk density of mixed ‘Municipal Solid Waste (MSW)’ in Sri Lanka is taken as 200 kg/
m3 based on CMC Solid Waste Composition Analysis and per capita per day waste taken
as 0.85 kg/cap/day.

5.0) Computation of probable waste generation and Source Segregation of

Waste

Solid Waste Management

Encouragements are given for ‘waste separation by each individual’ at the source
according to waste characterization explained under chapter 7& 8 of this report.

Public participation including involvement of occupant will be attained through ‘public

awareness’ to make this exercise a success.

5.1) Specimen Calculation for Total Waste Load, in Different Floors: -

a) Fifth Floor
Total solid waste generation = (No, of Occupant) x (occupancy factor) *
x ((per capita per day waste)

= (8 x5) x 1.0 x 0.85 kg = 34 kg

Table 5.1 – Computation of ‘solid waste generation’ for Tower 1

(kg)
Fifth- Thirteen (9
72 x 5 306
Floors)
Fourteen- Twenty
120 x 5 510
eight (15 Floors)
Total 816

In all the cases occupancy is considered as 100% and therefore factor is 1.0.

Computation of ‘solid waste generation load’ for Tower 2 is similar to the above
calculation. Calculation gave that per floor type A and Type B occupancy for Tower 2 is
30 and 40 respectively thus entire populations in the building is 880. Total solid waste
load per day is compiled to 748 kg.

5.2) Specimen Calculation for ‘assessment of Solid Waste Contribution by Each Floor’
for Tower 1: -

Considering the living standard of the occupants and space availability in a housing unit,
categorizations of waste are limited to organic, polythene & plastic, paper & cardboard,
and finally as others. Under this category named ‘others’ are included glass, metals,
wood, cloths, sand and any other.

a) Organic waste, in Fifth floor = (No, of Occupant in the floor) x (per capita per
day waste) x (Factor from
Table 4.1)
= (8 x 5) x 0.85 x 63.00% kg = 21.42 kg

b) Paper & Cardboard in Fifth floor tower 2= (No, of Occupant) x (per capita per day
waste) x (Factor from Table 4.1)

e) Other including E – waste etc. = 758 Liters

Above items may have market valve and therefore they can be reused or recyclable.

7.0) National Colour Code for Segregated Waste

The containers/ bins of sufficient sizes to accommodate two days waste load by maximum
occupation (including a free board) are launched at each housing unit. Collecting bins are
coloured according to the National/ International Colour Codes as follows for easy
identification.

Paper, Cardboard - Blue

Organic matter - Green
Glass and Glass Bottles - Red
Metals
Coconut Shelves Brown

Plastic Orange
Polythene
Sanitary/ Clinical Yellow/ Black
Health care wastes

7.1 Biodegradable Raw Organic Waste

Bags kept inside the green colour bins would be launched in final collection
chamber in the ground (outside the building footprint) to collect raw
biodegradable waste separately.

7.2 Other Biodegradable Waste

Waste from other bio degradable products such as paper, cardboards and paper-
wrappings would be collected to blue bins (inside bag) at final collection chamber.

7.3 Non - Biodegradable Waste

Metallic items, broken pieces of glass, glass items, plastic, polyethylene sheets,
ploy bags , wooden items etc. would be required to segregate into different
categories, according to national/international colour code before dispose. These
wastes would be transferred to the relevant colour bins placed at final collection
chamber.

7.4 Sanitary/ Health care wastes

9
Solid Waste Management

Collecting bags are kept inside yellow or black colour bins which would be kept
inside wash rooms in each housing unit to collect sanitary/ Health care waste in
segregated form. These wastes would be collected in tied bags and disposing will
be attended carefully by occupants.

7.5 Hazardous and Chemical Waste

Use of hazardous chemical inside the building shall not be allowed. In any case
such waste found it shall not be disposed together with other solid wastes.
Therefore, responsibility in disposing of such solid waste is totally prohibited
within the premises.

7.6 Electrical Waste

Electrical waste such as batteries and electrical components shall be handled

separately and shall be temporarily stored in a place away from ‘final solid waste
collection chamber’.

Segregated waste can be transferred by occupants into relevant containers/ bins at the
final collection chamber. These bins shall be kept at convenient, accessible and also safe
locations of the ground area.

8.0) In-house Collection Methodology

Decisions were reached to withdraw launching of waste collection bins in common areas,
in floor wise, due to security aspects and non-availability of separate waste management
team. In this case, occupants’ involvement has been aimed at to get the participation for
in-house solid waste management, in place of waste management team, as it found to be
more practicable. Each individual is responsible to collect his/ her segregated waste into
relevant collection bins, placed inside their dwelling unit, until transferring by themselves
to final disposal point. Conversely, they can handover their segregated waste directly to
CMC garbage collection truck at a predefined time (according to a timetable). This
timetable will be prepared, considering the convenience to stakeholders and it should be
shown in the waste management schedule.

Awareness, aiming at proper waste segregation at the source will be displayed suitably in
each household.

8.1) ‘Waste Management Team (WMT)’: -

It has found that it is not practically possible to appoint separate waste management team
for handling solid waste due to administrational and financial constrains. Therefore, it has
been successfully envisaging the getting participation by occupants to undertake all in-
house solid waste management, in previous building projects of similar nature. All
necessary awareness and knowledge transfer is arranged at occupants, on solid waste
management practices. CMC garbage collection workers will transfer relevant waste to
collection vehicle at final disposal point.

8.2) Solid waste segregation according to colour of collection bin

Paper, Cardboard - Blue

Organic matter – Green

Glass and Glass Bottles - Red

Metals, Wooden, Sand & Brown

Garden waste and Cloths

Clinical/Health care waste - Yellow / Black

8.3) Specimen calculation for colour bin requirement in each household

a) Organic waste, in household = (No, of Occupant) x (per capita per day

waste) x (Factor from Table 4.1)

= 5 x 0.85 x 63.00% kg = 2.68 kg

Green colour bins capacity per household

Organic matter (in green colour bin) = (2.68/ 377) x 1000 = 7.0 Liters

b) Paper & Cardboard in in household = (No, of Occupant) x (per capita per day
waste) x ( Factor from Table 4.1 )

= 5 x 0.85 x 7.0% kg = 0.30kg

Blue colour bins capacity per household

Paper & Cardboard (in blue colour bin) = (0.3/ 80) x 1000 = 4.0 Liters

In the waste management plan encouragements are given through awareness on reuse,
resource recovery, and to reduce the amount of final disposal for all the occupants.

10.0) Transfer the In - House Solid Waste to Final Collection Chamber (by
Occupants)

Occupants are totally responsible to transfer their segregated waste directly to final
collection chamber, until CMC Solid Waste Unit would collect and dispatch those.

11.0) Miscellaneous Computation of Waste Stream and Containerization

Final ‘solid waste collection chamber’ will be designed to accommodate 3 days waste
load without failure. However, considering matters related to magnitude of wastes, space

limitations and social implication it is required daily collection and removal of

biodegradable waste.

Biodegradable solid waste (Organic matters in Green colour bins and sanitary waste etc,)
will be stored in a safe chamber to avoid animals’ attacks and encroachments.

All together building 1 & 2 require 18 m3 storage capacities for 3 days biodegradable
wastes load at final disposal point. However, it is not possible to provide this required
facility (storage capacity for 3 days) within the premises due to unavailability of land
space. It has been foreseen to provide 2 locations for final disposal points within the
premises to cater for waste load. Bins were launched at final disposal point as described
below.

1) For Organic matter; it has been decided initially to launch 4 numbers of 1m x 1m x 1m

capacity green colour wheeled steel bins with top cover to accommodate biodegradable
wastes at front side of the building and another 5 numbers of similar bins at rear side as
marked in the attached layout to accommodate biodegradable wastes. Due to prevailing
circumstances providing cool room facility is not feasible in absences of in-house solid
waste management team. However, to minimize repulsive effects born by delay in CMC
attending, final collection chamber has been located outside the building footprint.

2) For Paper and Cardboards; 2 Nos. of 1m x 1m x 1m capacity blue colour steel wheeled
bins will be initially provided at front side and another 3 Nos. of similar bins are launched
at rear side of the building.

3) For Plastic & Polythene; 3 Nos. of 1m x 1m x 1m capacity orange colour steel wheeled
bins will be initially provided at front side and another 2 Nos. of similar bins are launched
at rear side of the building.

4) For Glass and Glass Bottles; 1 Nos. of 1m x 1m x 1m capacity red colour steel wheeled
bins will be initially provided at rear side of the building.

5) For Metals, Wooden, Sand & Garden waste, Cloths etc.; 3 Nos. of 1m x 1m x 1m capacity
brown colour steel wheeled bins will be initially provided at front side of the building
and another 2 Nos. of similar bins are launched at rear side of the building.

6) Disposing methodology of E- waste and chemical waste is entirely depending upon the
individuals and it may consider that disposing of such waste within the limit of building
premises is prohibited.

Implementation programme

Solid waste transferred to Final Collection point shall be kept in relevant bins (coloured
bin) by the occupants, until collected by CMC. Conversely occupant can handover their
segregated waste directly to garbage collection truck at a predetermined time and at a set
location.

As per requirements by regulation, organic wastes shall be stored in closed container with
100 C temperatures until collected by CMC. All other wastes shall be stored in closed
containers, free from odor / leakages / animal encroachment such as rats, dogs,
cockroaches, birds etc. However, as explained earlier it will not be possible to provided
cool room facility within the site limit due to space restrictions and unavailability of
independent waste management team.

Final collection point located would be easily accessible by the garbage truck. Space is
allocated to park the garbage truck without interrupting the other operations of the
premises. Required clearance, turning circles have been provided in the design for
movement of the garbage truck.

13.0) Marking of details on Architectural Drawings

Details of waste management system are marked on Architectural ground floor layout and
attached in Annexure 1.
Action plan for disposal of solid waste system shall be as shown below.

Organic waste shall be daily collected and remove away from the site. A schedule similar
to that has been shown below will be assigned with occupant for their necessary attention.

14.0) Conclusion

This report provides information as required by regulatory bodies, planning and

administrating authorities with respect to solid waste management, within the building
and its premise. It describes calculation for solid waste generation volume and
recommends appropriate measures to cope with solid waste management, in absence of
an independent ‘Waste Management Team’. Locations for final collection points, both at
front and rear sides of the building, ensure unobstructed reach of garbage collection truck.
Wheeled steel bins of 1.0m3 volumes to suit with CMC specifications will occupy the
reserved space for final collection points. As the requirement increase, with the passing of
time, additional storage facility will be provided in the given locations.
