Micro Composting Centres (MCCs) and Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs) together called Wealth Centres for management of wet and dry waste respectively have given a fillip to the entire Solid Waste Management (SWM) value chain.
Similarly, the establishment of Septage Treatment Plants (SeTPs) across all the 115 ULBs in the State has been helping in the prevention of water and environmental pollution in the cities of Odisha.
The decentralised, community-driven solid and liquid waste management model with low capital and operational cost engaging Mission Shakti SHGs, transgender groups, and Swachh Karmis has now emerged as a sustainable sanitation model in the Country.
