File name | Solid Waste Management And Muncipal Waste Management |
File Description | Municipal Solid waste management (MSWM) constitutes a serious problem in many Third World Cities. Most cities do not collect the totality of wastes generated, and of the wastes collected, only a fraction receives proper disposal. In India, generation of municipal solid waste (MSW), industrial hazardous waste and biomedical waste have been increasing due to population growth, life style changes and economic development. On the other hand, waste management responses have not kept pace with the increasing quantities of waste resulting in (a) a high proportion of uncollected waste, and (b) poor standards of transportation, storage, treatment and disposal. |
