Metric Tonnes
updated about 3 years ago by Singh Anjali

Calculated the sum of all hazardous and non - hazardous wastes and converted into metric tonnes.

1 metric ton = 1 kg/1000

(Calculation of non-hazardous wastes : 14,193,929+3,609,294+166,363+2,574,720+712,435+521,229 = 21,777,970/1000 = 21777.970)

(Calculation of hazardous wastes : 9,193+25,091+3,446+3,446+6,766+6,873+1,061 = 52,430/1000 = 53.430)

Therefore, Total waste = 21777.970 + 53.430 = 21831.4
