Abstract

A lot of solid waste is generated in every country of the world. Among various disposal methods used for management of solid waste, open dumping is mostly used in many countries, especially developing countries. Due to open dumping, the environment becomes polluted. It also creates aesthetic problems at the site. Industrial and agricultural wastes are simple to handle being of specific characteristics. This chapter describes in detail the composition of municipal solid waste, various problems arising due to solid waste, approaches used for solid waste management, and environmental recycling system (ERS).
