Cost of transporting mixed garbage is high and segregating it at source could reduce cost by 30 per cent, says former KSPCB chairman H.C. Sharat Chandra
There is a viewpoint that there is no need to segregate waste at source into wet and dry as technology can manage mixed garbage but the method is expensive, said H.C. Sharat Chandra, former chairman, Karnataka State Pollution Control Board (KSPCB). He was speaking at CanPlast2013, a seminar on solid waste management and plastic recycling organised by Canara Plastic Manufacturers Association in the city on Monday.
