    AbstractTrading of carbon and nitrogen oxide NOx)

    emission reductions is an attractive approach toimplement cleaner treatment technologies to replace

    current anaerobic approaches for solid wastemanagement. The presented study is about thedetermination of the greenhouse gas GHG) emissionreductions after implementation of aerobiccomposting in Kottavam town from the Indian stateof Kerala. The aerobic composting unit will generatecompost and carbon dioxide CO~ in place ofmethane CH4). Emission reductions weredetermined using the approved methodology of theUNFCCC. This greenhouse gas GHG) emissionreduction from the baseline can generate carboncredits for the town. These credits can be sold bymunicipality in the carbon market to the developed

    countries. Kottayam town generates 52.6 tonnes perday TPD) of municipal solid waste MSW), whichwould result in 5380 t CO2e per year tonnes of CO2equivalent generated per year) of greenhouse gasemissions if dumped according to the UNFCCCmethodology). If the same MSW were compostedaerobically, it may generate about 200 t CO2 e peryear. Hence a reduction of about 5166 t CO2 e peryear can be achieved from the baseline level. Thisreduction can lead to the monetary gain for the towndepending on the market price of carbon credit.

    1 IntroductionIndia generates 100GT ofMSW and per capita

    waste generation in major cities ranges from 0.20

    kg to 0.6 kg Ministry of Urban Development,Government ofIndia, 2000). More than 90 ofthewaste is disposed of by open dumping and a smallamount goes for compo sting, vermicomposting andRefuse Derived Fuel RDF) production. Opendumping of waste is a common practice in Indiancities. Incineration is not a common practice, as thewaste tends to be low in calorific value Narayana,2009).

    Municipal Solid Waste Management MSWM)involves activities like generation, storage,collection, transfer and transport, processing anddisposal of solid waste. However in most Indiancities, the MSWM system consists only fouractivities: waste generation, collection,transportation and disposal. In Indian cities,respective municipalities collect, transport anddump MSW in specified disposal sites usually lowlying areas in the outskirts of cities. For metro citiesthe collection rate ranges between 70 to 90whereas for smaller cities it is below 50 . Due tothis, MSWM has become a major environmental

    problem in Indian cities Singhal and Pandey, 2001).As estimated the urban municipalities spend about500-1500 Indian Rupees per tonne on solid wastefor collection, transportation and disposal. 60-70ofthis amount is spent on street sweeping, 20-30is spent on transportation and less than 5 is spenton disposal Ministry of Urban Development,Government ofIndia, 2000).

    Due to insufficient oxygen during thedecomposition of the organic matter in the landdumps, a mixture of CO2 and CH4 gases are emittedfrom these sites Mollersten and Gronkvist, 2007).Typically, gas from land dumps consists of 50-60

    by volume) ofCH4 and 30-40 {by volume) of CO2,and trace amounts of numerous compounds suchas aromatics, chlorinated organic compounds andsulfur compounds Mor et al., 2006). CO2 and CH4,due to their global warming potential, are the mainreason behind the global warming and theassociated climate change Palm et al., 2009). TheCH4 emission from the open dumps contributes to3-19 of the anthropogenic sources in the world Talyan et aI., 2007). Hence CH4 emission reductionfrom the land dumps may make a valuablecontribution to the reduction of GHG emissions.

    In developing nations, there is a growingconcern about the improper management of MSW.Proper management requires a suitablemanagement plan with construction and installationof essential facilities Shimura et aI., 2001). Thelimited revenue of the municipalities in thedeveloping nations make them ill-equipped in thecollection, storage, treatment, transportation andproper disposal of MSW due to the high cost

    The rate of solid waste generation and thecorresponding CH4 emissions have increased at anexponential rate since year 2001. By tl:1eyear 2041,the waste will generate about 32 million tonnes ofCH4 and this waste will require about 1100 km2 ofland for disposal. As compared to the westerncountries, the composition of MSW in India differsfrom city to city. On a wet weight basis, the averageIndian MSW consist of 40-60 of organic contents,30-40 ash and fine earth, 3-6 paper, and lessthan 1 each of plastic, glass, and metal. Thecalorific value of the Indian MSW is low due to thehigh inert matter and moisture content and is inthe range 800-1000 kcallkg (Sharholy et aI., 2008).The annual CH4 emissions from landfills in Indiawere 334 Gg in 1990 and are forecasted to be 743Gg in 2020 (Table 2) (ScheBhle, 2002).

    4. The Kottayam TownKER.A

    4.1. General InformationThe state of Kerala has a large urban

    population (Table 1). Hence MSW management andits associated problems like waste disposal and CH4emissions are very important for this state. Thetown has an estimated population of 67000 (Table3). Some facts about the town are mentioned in the

    Table 3. ..

    Table 3 Some facts about the Kottayam town.

    Data Source: Mathew (2009).

    4.2. Municipal solid waste from Kottayam Town

    Knttaya:m. town is the head Quarter ofKottayamd:\' .t~kt (J~'i'?,'1.~~1.\ ,l\.~n.e~ it l\.as a laT~~ f\.oaUn.~population along. with its native population. Beingan old town, it has narrow roads and streets, so thesystem of waste collection is not efficient. Thenarrow street~ obstruct the movement of thecollection vehicles, disturbing the dailythoroughfare. The Waste is being collected vvith

    insufficient and improperly placed bins leading to

    . I ] I~scattering of waste and unhygienic conditions(Mathew, 2009). Hence a proper waste collection andwaste management system is required in the town.Presently, waste generated (52.6 TPD) is dumpedin a 18211 m2 area at Vadavathoor, about 5 km aw'ayfrom the town. MSW from Kottayam town is aboutthree-quarters organic materials (Table 4)(Narayana, 2009; Mathew, 2009).

    This paper is proposing aerobic composting ofMSW from Kottayam town, leading to the generationofthe compost and the reduction of CH4 emissions.A TPD MSW processing project in New Delhirequired an initial investment of 1741.61 millionIndian Rupees in the year 2007 (UNFCCC, 2008),on the same line we can project that the Kottayamtown will require an investment of 46.97 millionIndian Rupees. Most of the MSWM cost (70%) isassociated with MSW collection. Even after sellingthe compost (43.61 million Indian Rupees per year)the project will not be able to recover its initial andrunning cost. So the contribution ofCDM is requiredio make project economically feasible after fixing

    6. Results and DiscussionCorresponding to the CDM market criteria, the

    reduction in the emissions of the GHGs will lead tothe generation of carbon credits for Kottayam town.

    Assuming the market price of one carbon credit tobe 10 / tonnes of CO2 e reduced, then 5166 tCO2 ereduction by the Kottayam town will earn(5166*10=51660) 51660 in a year (Indian Rupees3 409 560 per year (l = 66 Indian Rupees). Thisamount can be used by the municipality of theKottayam town to run the proposed compost plant,and upgrade the solid waste management system.In addition, about 7930 tonnes of compost will alsobe generated per annum in the town. This cangenerate additional revenue of 43.61 million IndianRupees per year assuming 5.5 Indian Rupees/kg of

    compost. As Kottayam town's proposed compostplant requires an investment of46.97 million IndianRupees and out ofthis amount, 43.61 million IndianRup~es can be recovered from the sale of compost.The remaining amount of3.36 million Indian Rupeesmay be recovered after taking carbon in the CDMmarket corresponding to 5166 tCO2 e reduction. Torecover 3.36 million Indian Rupees, 5166 tCO2ereduction may be sold at a price of 10 , such thatwe earn 5166*10*66 = 3.4 million Indian Rupees.In this scenario project becomes economical andfeasible.

    With a large amount of unmanaged waste,,;;imi1aTwaste management projects can help theIndian municipalities to generate substantialrevenue under CDM mechanism. This money canbe used by the town authorities to run, maintainand upgrade the waste management system of thetown. With the proper management of waste, theIndian share of CH4emissions due to open dumps

    will fall.1 . 7. Conc USlons

    Composting as a waste management option forthe Kottayam town can bring down the share of theGHG emissions from the town. The conventionalpractice of waste dumping (52.6 TPD of the MSW)will liberate CH4 of about 5380 tCO2e per annum.On the other hand, if the same waste is composted,it will liberate only 106 tCO2e per annum of N20gas and 108 tCO2e per annum of CH4 gas. So anemission reduction of 5166 tCO2e per annum canbe achieved in this case. These prevented emissionsthat otherwise would occur can be claimed as ERaccording to the approved methodology of theUNFCCC. In addition to 7930 tonnes per annum ofcompost produced, about 3.4 million Indian Rupeescan be generated annually making the wholemunicipal waste management system of Kottayamtown self-sustainable.References.
