Brahmapuram fuel plant opened

KOCHI: The Kochi Corporation has succeeded in converting waste into wealth through the waste management programmes introduced in the city, said S. Sarma, Minister for Fisheries.

He was speaking after inaugurating the Refuse Derived Fuel plant at a function held at the Kochi Corporation council hall on Thursday. There was a time when the city was full of garbage heaps. But the civic authorities succeeded in overcoming the crisis through the establishment of the waste treatment plant at Brahmapuram, he said.

The Minister also inaugurated the distribution of the bio-manure produced at the plant. Members of Kudumbasree units and agriculturalists received the bio-manure packets from the Minister.
