Tiruppur and Coimbatore Waste-to-Energy Project Tender Announced
Tiruppur and Coimbatore will initiate a tender for a waste-to-energy project. This is part of a broader strategy for solid waste management in the region, including a Bio-CNG plant and an MRF center.

The Tiruppur corporation plans to address solid waste management by floating a tender for a waste-to-energy project in Coimbatore. A 200-tonne Bio-CNG plant is currently stalled due to public protests.
An MRF center with a capacity of 50 tonnes for dry waste is in trial runs, aiming to manage 200 tonnes of dry waste daily across four zones. Operational efficiency is indicated by 24 out of 28 MCC centers functioning, with recent machinery upgrades in 12 of them.
Biogas production occurs at a facility processing 10 to 15 tonnes of wet waste daily. A napkin-making machine capable of handling 5 tonnes will expand to other zones soon. Full implementation of these initiatives is projected to exceed a year, with a significant portion operational in four months.
