Indore's Devi Ahilyabai Holkar Airport has become India's first zero-waste airport with the inauguration of a 3,000-square-foot Material Recovery Facility (MRF). 
Key Features of the Zero-Waste Initiative:
4R Strategy Implementation: The airport employs the 4R principles—Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Recover—to minimize environmental impact. 
Comprehensive Waste Management: A state-of-the-art waste processing plant handles approximately 750 kilograms of daily waste on-site, significantly reducing landfill dependency.
Wet Waste Processing Unit: Organic waste is converted into nutrient-rich compost, which is utilized for the airport's landscaping needs.
Material Recovery Facility (MRF): Dry waste is meticulously sorted into ten distinct categories for recycling, ensuring efficient resource recovery.
Sustainable Model: Revenue generated from the sale of compost and recycled materials is planned to fund the salaries of dedicated green workers from the third year onwards, ensuring the project's long-term viability.
Collaborative Efforts:
This achievement results from a partnership between IndiGo's CSR initiative, IndiGoReach, the Airports Authority of India (AAI), and the AAS Foundation, Indore. Their combined efforts have set a new standard for sustainable waste management in the aviation industry.
Inauguration:
The facility was inaugurated by Union Minister of Civil Aviation, Shri Rammohan Naidu, along with other dignitaries, marking a significant milestone in India's commitment to environmental sustainability. 
This initiative not only enhances Indore's reputation as India's cleanest city but also sets a precedent for other airports nationwide to adopt sustainable waste management practices.
