“To pace up the bio-mining project work and clear the garbage soon at Vellalore dump yard, we will be installing extra machinery in addition to the three existing machineries which are used to process and clear the waste at the facility. Out of the 1,000 tonnes of garbage collected, only around 550 tonnes of waste are brought to Vellalore. And the remaining are split and sent to the respective processing centres. Currently, we are sending about 15 trucks of non-biodegradable wastes that amount to about 600 tonnes to the cement factories in Ariyalur on a daily basis,” she added.
