Inert Waste from Bio-Remediation to Build Roads

An agreement has been made between the city municipal corporation and the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) to utilize the byproduct obtained from the bio-remediation process of legacy waste in road construction. The MoU was signed by Sushil Kumar, the NHAI contractor, and Sachin Kulkarni, the CEO of Sagar Motors, the bio-remediation contractor, at the MC Zone D office. The signing ceremony was attended by MC commissioner Shena Aggarwal and NHAI project director Ashok Rolania. Following the bio-remediation of legacy waste, the resulting inert material will now find application in the road construction work (earth filling) undertaken by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). The authorities have revealed that the civic body is actively working on the disposal of accumulated legacy waste at the primary dump site on Tajpur Road. Sagar Motors has been engaged to carry out the bioremediation process. Inert is one of the residual components left after the bioremediation process, and it will now serve as a valuable resource for NHAI in their road construction projects.
