What is solid Waste?
• Solid wastes are the wastes arising from human activities and are normally solid as opposed to liquid or gaseous and are discarded as useless or unwanted. Focused on urban waste (MSW) as opposed to agricultural, mining and industrial wastes.
• Integrated Solid Waste Management (ISWM) is the term applied to all the activities associated with the management of society's wastes.
• In medieval times, wastes discarded in the streets led to the breeding of rats and the associated fleas which carried the bubonic plague. The lack of management of solid wastes thus led to the Black Plague which killed half of 14th century Europe.
• Solid wastes also have a great potential to pollute the air and water. * Mining tailings from iron, gold and silver mines will probably being spilling arsenic into the water supply forever.
* Materials Flow - The best way to reduce solid wastes is not to create them in the first place. Others methods include: decrease consumption of raw material and increase the rate of recovery of waste materials.
* Technological advances - Increased use of plastics and fast, pre-prepared foods.
* Life style changes. Use and throw culture.
•Solid waste management is the control of :- generation, materials are identified as being no longer value- storage, management of wastes until they are put into a container- collection, gathering of solid wastes and recyclable materials and the transport of these materials where the collection vehicle is emptied. - processing, source separated (at the home) vs. commingled (everything together) is a big issue. Includes: physical processes such as shredding and screening, removal of bulky material, and chemical and biological processes such as incineration and composting.- transfer and transport, small trucks to the biggest trucks allowable- disposal of solid waste, landfilling with or without attempting to recover resources.

MSW, Municipal Solid Waste, is the primary focus of this lecture,which excludes industrial, mining and agricultural wastes. A. Residential and Commercial
Residential:Generated by me and you: Organic (combustible) and inorganic (non-combustible), food, paper, garden trimmings, glass, white goods, waste oil, spent cans of insecticide.
Commercial: stores, restaurants, hotels, car repair: paper, plastic.Putrescible, wastes that will decompose rapidly primarily food.
Plastics- Polyethylene terephthalate (PETE)- High-density polyethylene (HDPE), Special Wastes:- Bulky items: furniture, lamps.- Electronics- Major appliances (white goods)- Batteries, oil and tires
Household hazardous wastes:- paint- cleaners
B. Institutional and othersGenerated by government buildings, schools, prisons and
hospitals. Does not include medical wastes which are typically incinerated and manufacturing wastes from prisons.
Construction and Demolition. Road repair, sewer jobs, renovations: wood, concrete, steel, shingles, electrical parts.
Municipal Services. Street cleaning, parks, catch basins: trimmings, food, paper, sweepings, dead animals, abandoned vehicles.
Water or WW Treatment Plant Sludges.C. Industrial Wastes
Excludes process and hazardous wastes (Next Lecture).Stone, clay and glass products from the manufacture of flat glass etc., yielding glass, gypsum (sulfur source) abrasives, etc.D. Agricultural Wastes
Enormous quantities from planting, harvesting from row, field, tree and vine crops and animal husbandry, feedlots.

Hazardous Solid Waste
Municipal Solid Waste Management in Mumbai
• MCGB • Bombay Municipal Corporation (B.M.C.) Act
1888.• 6256 tones per day waste generated in Mumbai.• Per capita waste generated is 0.450 kg, highest in
Indian cities• One of the best waste management systems in
India.
Waste Disposal Options
• Sanitary Land-filling (Open Dump) method
• Composting and Vermi-composting
• Incineration
• Pelletization
• Gasification / Pyrolysis
• Anaerobic treatment of solid waste
• Conversion to biogas

Problems of MSW Management in Mumbai
• Overflowing Community Bins
• Waste littering in many places
• Waste Management services not satisfactory

PIL ON SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT
• Given the serious condition of urban SWM, a PIL was
filed in the Supreme Court in 1996.• Supreme Court direction to submit report of SWM to
all the states.• Supreme Court Constituted ‘Burman Committee’ to
review the SWM situation & give recommendations.• Burman Committee submitted report in 1999 to the SC.• Urban Local Bodies were given directives to implement
the recommendation of Burman Committee.
5
MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE (MANAGEMENT & HANDLING) RULES,2000
• Ministry of Environment & Forest, GOI, formulated these
rules (under Environment Protection, Act, 1986) on the
directives of SC in terms of Burman Committee
recommendation.• ULBs are responsible for the waste segregation, collection,
transportation, process & management.• The responsibility for implementation of these rules is
enstructed to Secretary, Chief for Municipal Corporations
& District Collectors for the Municipal Councils.
6
TIME-BOUND IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE OF THESE RULES
COMPLIANCE CRITERIA SCHEDULE
• Setting up of waste processing by 31.12.2003 and disposal facilities or earlier• Monitoring the performance of Once in six months waste processing and disposal facilities• Improvement of existing landfill By 31.12.2001 sites in terms of these rules or earlier• Identifications of landfill sites for By 31.12.2002 future use and making sites ready or earlier for operation.

• Centralized Disposal of municipal solid waste is done by all ULBs.
• Scientific processing / disposal is done by only a
few ULBs, and that too, only partially.
• Only Nashik city has developed processing
infrastructure at landfill site.
• Pune city’s infrastructure development work at
landfill site is in progress.
