The Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL) will provide viability gap fund for the proposed new waste treatment plant to be set up by the Corporation of Cochin.
Executive Director of BPCL’s Kochi refinery Prasad Panicker said on Tuesday that the corporation would find the land for setting up the plant. He said that the details of the project were being worked out and that the quantum of funding would depend on the project size.
The waste treatment plant will be set up under Prime Minister’s Swachh Bharat programme. BPCL has been chosen to financially back the project under its Corporate Social Responsibility programme.
