Abstract: Awareness of Solid Waste Management is main requirement in India. Environmental deprivation, hygiene and health problems are raising due to increasing quantity of solid waste and improper execution of this service. It is need of hour to conduct detail surveys of different areas and identify the solutions to manage the solid waste. The main object of this study was to educate people about Solid Waste Management, benefits of separation at source and to estimate the quantity of separated wastes for design of processing centre for Savina Vegetable Market. Processing centers in campus of market can reduce transportation cost and also problems associated with landfills. After conducting 5 days workshop it was estimated that an average per day 3464 kg fruit-vegetable waste, 504 kg paper waste, 111 kg plastic wastes are generated in this market. Vegetable and fruit waste is generated in very high amount which can be converted into compost. It can be converted in to revenue for this market because farmers are the customers for compost and they visiting everyday in this market for selling the vegetables and fruits. As per calculation based on this study Rs 15, 60,000 revenue and 5, 59,200 profits per year can be generated after expenditure for maintenance of processing centre.
