Now a day’s population growth, urbanization, economic prosperity etc. lead to a sustainable increase in MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE Quantities (Dalal, 2005). A higher polluted country like India generates a high amount of municipal solid waste not only in quantity but the composition also diverse inside the country (Dalal, 2006). This study investigates the green cleaning of the municipal solid waste generated in municipal areas of Ujjain district present in Madhya Pradesh, India. Ujjain is selected for this study because of lack of knowledge of legal regulations and public participation; there is practically no separation at collection places and households. This leads to a higher concentration of putrescible domestic wastes resulting in less calorific value of municipal solid waste as compared to municipal solid waste of developed countries (Dalal, 2011). The wet municipal solid waste from households of 54 wards of Ujjain city also adds to a large volume, decreasing the calorific value of the energy generation done from Solid waste (Dalal, 2012). Nearly 225 tonnes of total municipal solid waste is been generated in Ujjain City daily.
