Research Agenda for Performance Studies on Solid Waste Management Equipment

SWM Equipment, Productivity, Factors, Optimization
Since launch of Swachh Bharat Mission (SBM) in 2014, government has allocated huge budget to modernized solid waste management especially the equipment. However, Indian industry relies heavily on the experience of managers or data provided by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). This data when used in the estimates of a project resource gives a virtual or ideal scenario which doesn’t consider the efficiencies, and factors which might affect the performance of the equipment under analysis. There is lack of research on performance of equipment productivity. This state of the art paper discusses the research carried out on equipment productivity and identifies the research needs for SWM equipment productivity.
