KATHMANDU, July 7: The per capita waste production per day in Nepal is 317 grams. This is mentioned in a report prepared in 2013 by the Waste Management and Processing Center with support from the Asian Development Bank (ADB). This figure has changed to some degrees in recent years. An individual produces half a kilo or 500 grams of waste a day. The proportion of plastic in this waste is 12 percent.
