Basic Segregation
SEGREGATION: The Key to Effective Waste Management
• Cost of processing and recycling waste reduces significantly when waste is segregated at source.
• Waste processing is easier when waste is segregated
at source.
• Mechanised sorting is power intensive and
segregation of mixed waste is costly and not very
efficient. Segregation at source is simpler.
• When waste is segregated at source, there is better
recovery of resources and lower rates of
contamination.

Even if there is no system for collection of segregated waste in your locality, you can prevent your waste from going to the landfill:
Collected dry waste can be handed over at Saahas’s Kasa Rasa
centres, your local DWCC or given away to the
kabadiwala
Try home composting of food waste.
Drop you e-waste in the nearest Saahas e-waste
