IDENTIFICATION AND ANALYSIS OF CHALLENGES FACED IN THE COLLECTION TRANSPORTATIONAND DISPOSAL OF C and D WASTE MANAGEMENT IN INDIA

CONSTRUCTION

In India, managing the garbage from construction and demolition (C&D) projects is a major logistical and environmental concern. This study looks at the various challenges that arise when C&D garbage is collected, transported, and disposed of in India. This paper explores the main obstacles to sustainable waste management techniques by identifying them through a thorough analysis of the body of research and practical evidence. According to the report, the main barriers to efficient C&D waste management are a lack of awareness, legislative limitations, and inadequate infrastructure. Furthermore, the issue is made worse by limited recycling facilities, ineffective logistics, and the predominance of unofficial disposal techniques, which endangers human health and the environment. The study suggests strategic interventions to solve these issues, such as better regulation enforcement, investments in cutting-edge waste processing technologies, and increased public awareness campaigns, based on case studies and expert perspectives. The study also emphasizes how crucial policy consistency and stakeholder participation are to creating a sustainable environment for C&D waste management. This study adds to the continuing conversation on environmentally conscious urban development and sustainable urban development by illuminating the intricacies of C&D garbage management in India. It offers insightful information to practitioners, politicians, and other interested parties who are involved in developing and putting into practice plans to lessen the negative impacts that building and demolition operations have on the environment and public health.
