The Mattannur chicken waste rendering plant at Porora Karuthurparambil was inaugurated by minister for Local Self Government and Excise M. V. Govindan here on Monday.
After inaugurating the plant, the minister said that Keralites, though make an effort to ensure personal hygiene, seldom pay attention to instructions for preventing public dumping of waste.
The rendering plant, set up for the treatment of poultry litter, has more than 100 workers and handles 40 tonnes of waste per day. It also features modern facilities such as cold storage, sewage treatment plant and biofilter.
