Description:
Due to rapid increase in theproduction and consumption processes, societies generate as well as rejectsolid materials regularly from various sectors – agricultural, commercial,domestic, industrial and institutional. The considerable volume of wastes thusgenerated and rejected is called solid wastes. In other words, solid wastes arethe wastes arising from human and animal activities that are normally solid andare discarded as useless or unwanted. This inevitably places an enormous strainon natural resources and seriously undermines efficient and sustainabledevelopment. One of the ways to salvage the situation is through efficientmanagement of solid wastes.
There has been a significant increase in MSW(Municipal Solid Waste) generation in India in the last few decades. Thisis largely because of rapid population growth and economic development inthe country. Solid waste management has become a major environmental issuein India .The limited revenues earmarked forthe municipalities make them ill-equipped to provide forhigh costs involved in the collection, storage, treatment, and properdisposal of MSW. As a result, a substantial part ofthe MSW generated remains unattended and grows in theheaps at poorly maintained collection centres.
