Product Description

In olden days waste disposal did not emerge as a problem, since the population was scarce and the usage of material resource was less.The menace of waste disposal has become more serious in recent times due to rapid population growth and uncontrolled industrial growth. Solid wastes if not properly disposed or managed will not only harm humans but also impact serious threat to one's economy and environment. The solid waste management is a complex issue in developing countries like India since there exist vast variations in the types of wastes generated by different class of people from different localities such as rural, urban and semi urban. Majority of the people were unaware of the ill effects of improper disposal of solid waste. Thus the authorities in developing countries felt that it was a great challenge to them to handle this task.
