This report explores the potential and challenges associated with the segregated combustible fraction (SCF) recovered from legacy waste dumpsites in India. These materials are typically contaminated with inert substances and exhibit high moisture content, complicating their scientific disposal. A significant challenge is the high transportation costs associated with transporting these segregated combustible fractions to cement co-processing units or waste-to-energy plants. This report delves into strategies for optimizing the utilization of these fractions, addressing logistical hurdles, and advancing sustainable legacy waste management practices in India.
