| Yhteenveto: | Municipal Solid waste management 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. The insufficient collection and
inappropriate disposal of solid wastes represent a source of water, land and air pollution,
and pose risks to human health and the environment. Among all the wastes (solid, liquid
and gas), solid waste is the most popular and most difficult to manage locally. This is
because solid waste does not flow, evaporate, diffuse, dissolve or be absorbed into the
surrounding unlike liquid and gaseous wastes. This is the effort of a detailed investigation
regarding the methods of practices associated with sources, composition, quantity
generated, collection, transportation, waste treatment and disposal of municipal solid
waste in the Thodupuzha. |
